    One thing we've learned: Brett Kavanaugh is the perfect judge to be appointed by Donald Trump: 1) Compulsive liar 2) Credibly accused of abusing women 3) Gets away with 1 and 2 by wailing white resentment

        4.) Imagine this guy fueled & boozed up 5.) peddling Clinton conspiracy theories for excuses? 6.) Seeing that affect his future rulings? Of course it would— He’s disqualified.

        With all the legal expertise between Kavanaugh and the GOP it's surprising they couldn't show up today with a better legal strategy than crying and yelling.

        It does seem like we've found the parsimonious explanation for "why did Trump choose Kavanaugh?" and it was the obvious "he likes him" explanation all along.

        Not to mention that the type of person who would facilitate a gang rape for his friends and lie about it possesses *exactly* the character the GOP as a whole is looking for in a Supreme Court Justice.
