        Yessir. “Hear-hear”, from a middle aged white man! Lol, also election days should ALL be paid National Hollidays. I would like to see ALL branches of government be held to a greater standard of accountability by charter, and better anti-corruption laws be passed, similar to RICO.

        No @senatemajldr you are not a victim. The senators are not victims. They are politicians who are supposed to represent their constituents who are the real victims & who are angry that you can't / won't listen to them. I repeat: YOU ARE NOT A VICTIM.

        It would definitely take a Republican politician to believe - while 99% of sex crime victims go without justice across this country - that he and his privileged cronies in DC are the REAL victims. Victim mentality is the scourge of weak men.

        Sorry! Asking our @gop leaders to listen to our stories & hear our pleas is not assault! Men having agendas that diminish our healthcare and rights IS assault.

        If @senatemajldr thinks someone yelling is assault imagine what Dr. Ford felt when Dr. Ford was was PHYSICALLY ASSAULTED & then was ridiculed by him.

        No sweetie. Assault is what Brett did to Dr. Ford. What you experienced is a vocal electorate. I know it’s hard to tell the difference when you’re used to imposing your will on people.

        Just wondering, has anyone tried dousing McConnell, just drench him with a pail of water? I’m wagering a hundred bucks he’d melt on the spot.

        From what I’ve seen over the last week, the GOP doesn’t see anything wrong with assaults.

        No. Real assault is the thing that women are that you ignored.
