    The GOP still may get Kavanaugh confirmed, but at a huge risk. The image of 11 male Republicans grilling a woman who says she’s a sexual assault victim may not be what the party wants before midterms that are at the height of the "Me Too" movement.https://buff.ly/2D5yKx1

        Actually, we see how terrible the dems are and you better believe that it will cause Reps to show up in droves in the midterms. Say hello to a trump super majority

        This is exactly the what Dems and leftist wanted. They have no real concern over this woman and her allegations. She is a political pawn, witting or unwitting, in a despicable charade. #MeToo has been hijacked by them. It is a shame as it tarnishes the spirit of the movement,

        This is what they do with everyone. Blacks, Hispanics, LGBQT.. they dont care about anything except keeping the power to destroy all they come in contact with and rule over the people.

        That image is red meat for the whole maga cult. The base won’t budge. Let’s hope the rest of humanity sees it for what it is.

        And what is it? A con? An orchestrated move to ruin a good man's life? A LOW class political hit by someone who should be investigated for employing a Chinese spy for 20 years? The sad act of a mass hysterical club member? A political hit job? Then, yes. I agree.

        Dems/liberals act like they're doing us a favor by violating laws of right & wrong. Dems are experts at dirty politics, as they've proven over the last 2.5 years. @DonaldJTrumpJr is doing a great job for his dad exposing their iniquitous deeds. @SenKamalaHarris @SenFeinstein

        Anita Hill “just” alleged creepiness?? That is a rather shallow interpretation. A commentary on your moral compass perhaps?

        Please Do u really think voters will be turned off bc she'll have to testify to SERIOUS allegations that can ruin someone"s reputation? The truth is always the most important thing-something Democrats don't believe in. Let's keep supporting Ellison though. #DemocratHypocrites

        Many red flags to Ford's story. 1. Can't remember the month or year of the party (early 1980s) 2. Don't know the location of the party. 3. Don't know how she got to the party. 4. Don't know anyone else who might have been at the party. All stuff we would need to confirm her story

        Plus she was drinking at 15 -demonstrating risky behavior by going to parentless homes to party -how does she even know it was Kavanaugh with all these questionable behavior-a 15 yr old girl does not have the same reaction or emotional response with alcohol- could be all be false

        Your stupidity is that you automatically give this woman full blown immunity when there are tremendous holes in her story-no corroboration-& it is made about a guy who has no pattern of behavior like this-your kangaroo system of justice is scary-if it was ur relative you’d scream

        Oh I’m sorry, do you think I’m a prosecutor? Because I haven’t granted anyone immunity. But you haven’t even heard testimony from her and you’ve already decided she was a dumb, slutty 15yo. Did you ever consider he was a dumb, rapey 17yo? #BelieveWomen

        You believe anyone that says rape-that is ignorant- Duke Lacrosse team lost their reputations- a woman is heading to jail for false accusations but that is okay in ur world apparently- hope u never serve on a jury with that hatred

        No it’s not hatred, it’s the knowledge that false sexual assault allegations occur at the same rate as any other falsely reported crime: 3%. The VAST majority of women who say they were assaulted - WERE. I’m sorry you don’t find women to be worthy of being believed. Who hurt you?

        No one? Completely off the mark - I know rape victims and believe them - the Les Moonves accusers have facts, circumstances and a pattern of behavior- oral sex and abuse of power - does not compare to a 15 and 17 yr old with no rape occurred, faulty memory, conflicting facts etc
