        He is as guilty as hell and it doesnt surprise me that @realDonaldTrump backs him as he has a low respect for women. Dr Christine Ford had nothing to gain by coming forward only to stop a sexual predator from becomibg a life supreme court justice. Shame on Trump a USA disgrace!

        He’s not guilty at all. In spite of the sham orchestrated by the Democrats, Judge Kavanaugh has been proven innocent. Dr. Ford is a sad, confused woman who has contradicted herself, and her 4 witnesses even disagree with her testimony.

        Gotta love how they cut the bit about where Kavanaugh said drinking beer doesn't make you a rapist and how they tried to make it out as if he was lying but he did admit that he drank a lot, also this entire thing is based on her assuming that he wouldn't remember that night #fake

        This was a smear campaign and it backfired. He will be sworn in to the SCOTUS and democrats will lose. Many eyes were opened yesterday.

        If Kavanaugh has any dignity left, then he should withdraw his nomination as Mark Judges, passages corroborate Dr. Ford’s timeline of events!

        @rowlandsbb this type of trial by media is alien to our sense of justice in UK>her claims would not even be published in UK because they are not [as of now] substantiated>but then that is American politics

        You fail to report that one of the key “witnesses” couldn’t recall kavanaugh ever being at the alledged party, the fact that fords testimony is patchy at best and inconsistent. Or how about the fact that his previous 6 FBI background checks never picked up anything
