Nick Confessore added,
Talked with a GOP source last night who believes the opposite is also true--that (as you can certainly see on Twitter) conservative belief that these charges are a smear against Kavanaugh are also motivating to many otherwise Trump-blah Republicans.
Have you seen good polling that measures the Republican backlash in the relevant places?
No, I have not. Will be particularly interesting what that looks like after Avenatti though.
This is indirect, but Republican party approval went up in most recent poll. One logical explanation is Trump-skeptic Republicans (who may or may not have voted for him reluctantly as lesser-of-two-evils) coming back.https://www.cnn.com/2018/09/24/politics/republican-party-favorability/index.html …
