      Nate Silver Retweeted Josh Marshall

      During the Whitehouse questions about the yearbook, he's literally almost sneering with contempt while launching into a series of wildly implausible explanations on ralphing, devil's triangle, Renate Dolphin, "boofed", etc. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ccXpDhMmBY …https://twitter.com/joshtpm/status/1046019746070745090 …

      The most generous reading of Kavanaugh’s repeated deceptions is that under normal circumstances he tells the truth but feels entitled to lie when he believes he is being treated unfairly or when a lot is on the line. In other words, a liar.

      Maybe he's a man wrongly accused—or thinks he's been wrongly accused because he was too drunk to remember the incident (!)—and that explains the indignation. But he's very comfortable with lying (under oath no less). He doesn't even bother coming up with good, believable lies.

      p.s. He could be *genuinely* indignant even if he did it—he thinks of it as a minor, routine-for-its-era, boys-will-be-boys transgression amid a lifetime of high achievement and he can't *believe* it's been dredged up out of nowhere when he's inches away from the finish line.

          As I said to someone at work, he is genuinely angry - but it's just that he's not going to get on the SC.
