          @SenMajLdr Is this a joke? You are a sham, and a scam artist, though a poor one. "McConnell announced that he would not even meet with Garland. Indeed, he never allowed the Republican-controlled Senate to hold a single confirmation hearing."https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/remember-merrick-garland-democrats-can-t-let-mitch-mcconnell-rewrite-ncna891626 …

          lol - @SenateMajLdr looks panicked - there is only ONE way to determine the credibility - an investigation. right now there is nothing fair about everyone in GOP saying “he will be confirmed” - their minds are made up and this is all a FARCE. disgraceful.

          First: Merrick Garland Second: We are now at 4 possible accusers, one of whom has the receipts, so NO. It's not the Democrats. It's old men who used to think that women were toys for them to play with at their leisure who are now being called to task for their disgustingness

          The only ones who look panicked are the ones trying to slam this nomination through without releasing documents and investigating claims.

          I, for one, find it pretty odd and disgusting that the @SenateMajLdr isn't even going to try to pretend that he's bothered by the idea of a Supreme Court justice with allegations of participating in gang rape hanging over him for 4 decades. #KavanaughWithdrawNow
