Meanwhile, Ed Whelan is knee deep in back issues of Playgirl magazine right now trying to put together Kavanaugh’s latest defense.

He knew it ALL. Last week. So did Mitch.

I was thinking they are past that point. If they could ditch him and get someone else McConnell would have made it happen already. The fact that he has not done so, despite all that has come out, makes me think Mitch does not believe he has time.

They knew about these allegations since last week.

Also they are the Spurs, you could trade them a bag of garbage and Pop and his staff would turn him into an All-Star while they still win 50 games.

If losing Butler means getting rid of Thibs, that is probably better for Wiggins and KAT’s long term careers than any other option.

Doppel-gäte is gonna blow up in all of their faces. Either in time to kill the nomination, or after the election when the Dems have the power to run some congressional investigations.

Attention parents of daughters: The Republican party does not care if a drunken rich kid tries to rape your daughter at a party. They think it is normal and ok and they also want it to remain normal and ok.

Another amazing part about this tweetspiracy theory is that despite trump having one of his insane rallies in Las Vegas, this batshit story managed to even out-crazy that.

A big part of it is, if he goes down, they won’t have time to get through another nominee before the midterms and if they lose the Senate they are afraid that Dems will use McConnell’s Merrick Garland precedent to refuse to confirm anyone. They think this is their ONLY chance to fill this seat because if the tables…

When all your defenders start from the assumption that this DID happen, you are probably not on very solid ground to begin with.

When it gets down to it, Starbucks might not even hire a sexual harasser anyway.

Definitely read to the last one... And wish her the best if she decides to proceed.

The google maps, other guy did it, here’s the floorplans conspiracy theory is the peak of this entire disaster so far. It may be surpassed but it is tops for the moment.

The most batshit yet fitting way this could go is if it turns out this other guy DID try to rape a girl but it was actually a different girl at some other party. But Kavanaugh thought it was Ford because he doesn’t actually remember which girl HE tried to rape.

It is pretty damning that almost every defense of him is based on the assumption that this DID happen.

If Kavanaugh gets sunk, Dems should literally vow to follow Mitch McConnell’s Garland precedent and hold open the seat by refusing to hold hearings for ANY trump nominee. But they should also let everyone know they would make an exception to that if he nominated Merrick Garland.

It is legitimately possible he has already flipped on trump.

Holy shit! He really does want to gtfo of Minnesota.

It is possible that Mitch’s Merrick Garland gambit is about to come around and bite him in the ass with Kavanaugh.
