    Not all Georgetown Prep SCOTUS nominees have an alleged history of sexual assault, as it turns out.https://twitter.com/ClaraJeffery/status/1044960435189952512 …

    Nobody accused Neil Gorsuch of attempted rape. No women. Nobody who partied with Georgetown Prep boys. No Ivy League classmates. No Democrats.

        We need to shut down Georgetown Prep until we can figure out what the hell is going on.

        IMHO D's should be pushing this contrast harder. Let's them frame it as less about ideology & more on character. Nothing to be done about Gorsuch now, but using his actual choir boy personal behavior to sink Kavabro would feel satisfying

        A huge problem with Kavanaugh is his embrace of omerta "what happens at ..." Blind loyalty to peers due to mutually assured destruction. Just what a president who demands loyalty would want. Polar opposite of what a judge on the supreme court should be.

        Yep... you've got to ask yourself, if this is, as the GOP says, a smear campaign against Kavanaugh, then why wasn't the same campaign launched against a SCOTUS nominee from the same school? It's because only one of them engaged in sexual assaults.

        So should we start a SCROTUS B-team?

        Perhaps the entire point of the Kavanaugh nomination is to make Gorsuch and his anti-constitution yearbook quote look tame. Kind of like how Bork made Scalia look like a centrist.

        Also, Gorsuch didn’t start out his nomination with blatantly obsequious lies that would instantly shatter his credibility.
