Official Brett Kavanaugh Thread, Part 5

[Anonymous]

Republicans can thank Avenatti's intervention with the Swetnick allegation for diluting the impact of the Ford allegation.

Another long day of protest and screaming at they sky for democrats. It’s working so well I hope they continue their focus on that obviously winning behavior.

I thought there were two funds.

No, she will have to buy security to keep her and her family safe from all the upstanding conservative death threats.

It worked for Kavanaugh.

Where was he protesting? Link? Pics?

Donald Trump told republicans he’d teach them to fight and win, and he is. Meanwhile Feinstein and Avenatti and Spartacus are stinking it up for the Dems.
Fight on warriors.

I think they can thank a baseless allegation that lacked key details and was completely uncorroborated and partially refuted by the witnesses she provided.

That’s absolutely correct. It’s being willfully ignored here.

He was on national TV protesting / screaming in front of Congress that he wasn't being given adequate respect. Everyone saw it. Do you need a link? Are you in Russia?

Great analysis comparing Collins to Margaret Chase Smith

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/susan-collinss-declaration-of-cowardice/2018/10/06/ee262620-c991-11e8-b1ed-1d2d65b86d0c_story.html?utm_term=.3ea8fbdea8b9

“This is as close to McCarthyism as I hope we get in my lifetime,” Graham said of the Democrats, whom he accused of “mob rule.”

It was an insult to the memory of Margaret Chase Smith, whose heroic and patriotic 1950 speech, a “Declaration of Conscience,” was a lonely denunciation of the demagogue who dominated her Republican Party. Collins’s speech, ignoring the new demagoguery that has overtaken her party while criticizing the other side, was the very opposite. Hers was a Declaration of Convenience, a Declaration of Capitulation.

“We are Republicans. But we are Americans first,” Smith said 68 years ago. “I don’t want to see the Republican Party ride to political victory on the Four Horsemen of Calumny — Fear, Ignorance, Bigotry and Smear.”

Many of the words Smith uttered long ago apply now to the current administration. “Those of us who shout the loudest about Americanism in making character assassinations are all too frequently those who .?.?. ignore some of the basic principles of Americanism,” she said, including the right to criticize and to protest. Though lamenting the “ineffective Democratic administration” of Harry S. Truman, she said replacing it with a dishonest Republican one “might be a fleeting victory for the Republican Party, [but] it would be a more lasting defeat for the American people.”

Collins, in her Smith moment, criticized only the other party, liberal groups and an unnamed senator — apparently Bob Casey (D-Pa.) — who opposed Kavanaugh before he was named.

She offered wishful thoughts that “centrist” Kavanaugh won’t outlaw abortion, won’t champion executive power and “will work to lessen the divisions in the Supreme Court.” Unlikely. Kavanaugh campaigned for confirmation via right-wing outlets: a Fox News interview and a Wall Street Journal op-ed. He testified about Democrats’ “smears” and “political hit” seeking “revenge on behalf of the Clintons.” He threatened that “what goes around comes around.”

Collins offered no complaint about that, nor about Trump’s mockery of Ford at a political rally, nor Trump’s tweet saying the assault couldn’t have been “as bad as she says” because she didn’t call the police, nor his belittling Al Franken for resigning under misconduct allegations “like a wet rag.” (Collins called for Democrat Franken to resign without an investigation.)

Collins made no mention of McConnell ignoring the Merrick Garland nomination for nearly a year, deploying the “nuclear option” to deny minority influence over Supreme Court confirmations and saying he would “plow right through” despite the Ford allegations, which he called “a good smear” with a “complete lack of evidence.”

She praised Judiciary Committee Chairman Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa), who on his way to her speech had said Republican women don’t want to serve on his committee because “it’s a lot of work” (aides pushed him to recant), and who earlier was joined by Trump in alleging that George Soros paid the sexual assault survivors who protested.

To be worthy of Margaret Chase Smith, Collins would have to take a personal risk and use her pulpit and her vote to denounce the misogynist who leads her party and her colleagues who enable him. Without that, her message is a Declaration of Cowardice.

THE CLOWN IN CHIEF wants DR.Ford arrested

[Anonymous]

It appears creepy porn lawyer's career on CNN and MSNBC is over.

Just got off a phone call with my mother who lives in a small midwestern town and she told me the other day she was watching a local race wearing an anti-Trump t-shirt and she was amazed at how many runners gave her the thumbs up as they passed her, including men. Dozens of them.

This is a town that voted for Trump, guys. Ha ha.

My prediction is that Trump will get a second term, and with it the opportunity to appoint at least two more, possibly three S.C. justices. Definitely Ginsburg, who is clearly struggling in recent interviews. Probably Breyer too who is getting up there in age. And certainly Thomas, who will want to step down under a Republican President. That will usher in a 7-2 majority for at least 30 years.

And that’s why his presidency will always be successful for Republicans, conservatives. He is producing well, but SCOTUS will be problematic to say the least for democrats and liberals for decades. Winning.

And the more Trumpy pulls his gross Trumpy moves like ridiculing a woman for coming forward with her story of sexual assault, the more he is turning off those nice midwesterners. I've spoken enough with my friends and relatives back home in the past few months to know that is true. And Republicans are ignoring this, and that is great news for Democrats.
