      The boys attacking The Brown Lady for this forget that Kavanaugh is likely to have to consider recusing (or not) on Trump's crimes.https://twitter.com/SenKamalaHarris/status/1037520011861090305 …

      Has Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh had a conversation about Robert Mueller or his investigation with anyone at Trump's personal attorney's law firm? We don’t know. He refused to answer my question. pic.twitter.com/PAKxDGvEtZ

      She needs to expand on that line of questioning otherwise it looks like it was a gimmick.

      Do you have more prosecutorial experience than Harris?

      No. And she might have something, if she does, she needs to get it out, otherwise it looks like a stunt.

      Since you don't have her experience, I'll give her the benefit of the doubt that she knows what she's doing and you don't.

          I don’t have any dislike for Sen. Harris, I’ll vote for her over Trump. But I do think people who are undecided or support this judicial nominee, & people who don’t really know who Sen. Harris is, might not see that video the same way as people that oppose him & know her.

          You're treating this as a contest about who is liked?

          Partly, because it is a democracy (mostly) and opinion does matter to some extent. My point though is about perception, if she has something, it would be nice if she would validate that line of questioning by putting it out there.

          Preferably before he is being sworn in, otherwise it looks like it is just something to tickle the Democratic base to anyone that isn’t in that category. BTW, do you know what she has on Kavanaugh?

          By the way, I enjoy reading your blog and occasionally hearing you on podcasts. I think you are more insightful on current events than most people when it comes to weaving it together.
