OMG same. They simply can't stand a powerful black woman. They can't. It messes with their ego in a way they can't even explain, and threatens their manhood for some strange reason.
I'd really hate to be an old white guy right now. Because American can't stand them.
So you're saying she should not be questioned about the same issues Amy Coney Barrett and Brett Kavanaugh were questioned about - because she's black? Interesting.

Were Kavanaugh and Barrett questioned about the curriculum of where their kids went to school?
And were they asked about being white?
One was grilled mercilessly about her religion and the other about high school and beer. Democrats set the standard for ridiculous questions.
So they were not asked about being white.
BK has issues. His face looks like that of a drunkard. He was able to act out and have a temper tantrum, because he’s a white man. He doesn’t have a good and even temperament. A Supreme Court judge should do better.
AB and KJB do not have the luxury of being able to tantrum.
Hopefully, we’ll have additional qualified people added to the court in the future.
Fairly certain that if either ACB or KJB were falsely accused of sexual assault, and then grilled about it during their hearings, they too would get emotional and angry. With good reason.
KJB was falsely accused of sympathizing with and being lenient on pedophiles. And she did not get emotional and angry about that. Because she knew if she did she wouldn't receive the leniency that Kavanaugh as a white man did.
She didn't get angry about it because she was able to refer to evidence showing that her sentencing was within normal guidelines. Kavanaugh (that dastardly white man!!) didn't have any such evidence to prove his innocence.
BTW, your laser focus on race is just stupid. You seem to expect Ketanji to receive special treatment... because she's black?
I expect Republicans and even Republicans set higher standards for her to meet because she's black, yes.
When a white man had a meltdown under congressional questioning Republicans didn't say boo about it. Because men are not called out as much for showing their emotions as women are. That is a fact. If KJB had had the very same type of meltdown, with tears and shouting and grimaces, Republicans would have had a field day, demonized her as a scary, angry, out of control person, unfit to sit on the highest bench. Yes they would have. There is nothing you can say that would alter that fact.
I love the gaslighting
People *on this forum* were screeching at Kavanaugh for being unqualified because he had an emotional meltdown when someone accused him of rape - within not a single shred of evidence and whose story was riddled with so many holes and where every person named by the accuser flat out denied it, including a childhood best friend.
The Democrats were vicious, brutally vicious, to Kavanaugh for political reasons that they effectively tried to lynch him with an accuser who was coached and trained in her testimony that was - once again, refuted by every party she named.
And now the Democrats whine and moan and complain about how mean and bullying the Republicans are, when their greatest crime is to simply ask basic questions about, oh, what is a woman.
I guess we look at credible accusations differently. As someone whose college path crossed with Kavanaugh’s, I found the accusations quite credible and worthy of serious scrutiny and further investigation. I also found his meltdown troubling, and think that this alone was and is grounds for questioning his fitness as a SC Justice.
You seem to be trying very hard to point to the questioning of Kavanaugh in purely political terms — a very limited viewpoint. If that is your viewpoint, then note that Gorsuch— whose history did not raise similar red flags, did not face similarly questioning—because there was no need to raise such questions. While Gorsuch would not be my pick, his temperament and experiences are well within the boundaries set for highly qualified candidates.
In my personal opinion, three of the SC Justices should not be on the Court. My concerns are not primarily political. Scalia, for example, was eminently qualified. I might question his conclusions and his motives, but I never questioned his fitness to serve. To paraphrase: Kavanaugh is no Scalia, and neither is ACB.
