    Kavanaugh nomination is a good illustration of why Dems have been ill-served by the language of apocalyptic furor that has become so prevalent. Seeing as this is a “normal” GOP pick, their newfound rhetorical toolkit comes across as screechy, and legitimate criticism is tuned out

        This isn’t born out in polling data though. 538 put out generic ballot polls that track Trump admin quiet periods with Generic Rep gains, and more controversial periods with generic dem gains. I don’t know that low engagement voters are hearing enough to tune it out.... yet

        Their "newfound" toolkit has been screeching metal-on-metal for God knows how long. Legitimate criticism has been rendered virtually impossible, given the density of their wall of noise. You're spot-on per usual.

        #1 It isn’t new. Lots of liberals were pretty worked up about both Bushes, Cheney etc. #2 it isn’t confined to “Dems” (witness the hysteria re Obama taking everyone’s guns.) #3 you might be screechy if your basic humanity was threatened but thats just “identity poltics” right?

        While they screech apocalypse @ voters, @SenateDems @TheDemocrats sure ain't screeching at their so-called fellow Dems (the "real" ones) who'll probably vote WITH GOP2 confirm. That's because, in Pelosi's words, she (or their "leadership") is "effective." NTM, #Trump is Prez!

        Are they all saying that.. cos I have an inbox full of alerts from electeds and liberal concerns on this pick. I don’t care if they borrow left wing language if they are prepared to act on it.

        you referring to Wittes et al? Id ask what a “normal GOP pick” is by a party in the throes of the far right, at this stage, with specifically telegraphed undemocratic aspirations. Of course Wittes thinks it’s ok to Let Go of Roe. Nice thought experiment he wrote years ago.

        Normal? The conflict of interest is outrageous! Deutsche Bank loaned President Donald Trump over $1 billion for his real-estate projects while Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy's son led a real-estate division there. So NOT NORMAL Conflict of interest You've heard of that?
