    A GOP line of attack on Deborah Ramirez (Hatch and McConnell both said it) is that she spoke out only after Dems “came looking.” Is it crazy that the Senate, when considering a nominee, would look if there are any sexual misconduct issues? Seems like those are Qs worth asking

        "Came looking"? You mean, "investigated"?

        Maybe, you know hiring somebody to look into the nom’s Past? Avoids these things and you move on to another candidate. They are going all in and the excuses are textbook lame.

        They tried this when the allegations against Roy Moore surfaced as well.

        Why would they, when their handler @Franklin_graham said attempted sexual assault is no longer a crime?

        Then why weren’t they brought up immediately hearing he was being considered...or after being chosen? Why wait till after full hearing was over and 3 days before the vote? Timing is very suspicious.

        Ramirez doesn't even seem sure of her story. The fact that she came forward after six days of deliberations means that the political environment may have played a role in the formulation of her story.

        Except when you've stolen a SC seat and are hellbent on getting the person you want on the bench confirmed. Who cares about sexual misconduct? They want to go back to a century where it was standard practice.

        And was attacking how allegations weren't credible but if that's the case then why not investigate and show they aren't credible 🤔 oh, that's right... He's FOS

        They didn't ask. They didn't investigate. They are unwilling to investigate. They don't know and they don't care.
