And bingo! Trump kind of went on at length about the "surprising" news about Kavanaugh's attachment to beer, claiming (falsely) that BK admitted to having "a little bit of difficulty" with alcohol. You can tell in his comments he thinks poorly of people who drink to excess. https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/409292-trump-surprised-at-kavanaughs-talk-about-beer-at-senate-hearing?__twitter_impression=true&__twitter_impression=true |
Shameful the media ran this. This woman does not seem well:

Apparently she collected unemployment while on paid sick leave. She and creepy porn lawyer are made for each other. How lovely. |
Gee, can't imagine why she might seem a bit unwell. |
He is an idiot. It was probably short term disability, and you can take that while on sick leave. My STD policy paid for part of my maternity leave, concurrently with me taking paid sick leave. It is how it works with some STD policies and some employer leave policies. The HR dept explained it to me and told me there was no way to take unpaid sick leave. |
Agreed. As for the PP’s statement regarding past drinking behavior, I’ve undergone several security clearances and questions about past alcohol and drug abuse are the norm. The key is being honest and forthright because the concern is that if you’re not candid, this could become something to blackmail you with. Year another reason Kavanaugh’s lack of candor is troubling. |
Do you believe her? Witnesses consisting of someone who doesn't know her, someone else who is dead, and two who didn't respond to NBC? Changed the claim from her statement that Kavanaugh was involved in spiking the punch to him just hanging out by the punch and handing out red solo cups. A police report she claims was made, but for which there was no apparent subsequent investigation? |

Is it any wonder no one takes this woman seriously? Read the part about suing Md Transit because she hurt her nose and lost modeling contracts....... |
In today’s press conference, Trump said something to the effect that he’s never had a drink, alcohol has never touched his lips and he asked, “Can you imagine what I’d be like, if I did?” |
I didn't see her on TV. I'm not sure I believe her or not. Considering her story includes a sitting appellate judge, that's pretty shocking. |
And, he has undergone 6 FBI background investigations. You really don’t believe that if a drinking problem existed, that they would no discover it? You really believe that? Since you have “undergone several security clearances,” you must realize that they talk to more than just the candidate. They talk to neighbors, friends, coworkers, etc. You really think they would miss this? |
It was a funny line. |
Yes. And, that is just for basic FBI background checks. The higher the job, the more in-depth they go. And, they don't just go to the people you list on the application. They go to others who lived in close proximity to you. And, in all these checks, none of this came out? |
Who provides the FBI with names to check for security clearances? |
Who gives a hoot about Julie Swetnick? We have him red handed on perjury and trying to sway those witnesses at Yale. Come on GOP, give it up already. He sucks! |
