Democratic presidential candidates want Kavanaugh impeached after newly surfaced sexual misconduct a

I believe he was unfit to ever get in. His rant before the final Senate Committee Confirmation Hearing fully disqualified him. So I'm fine with his impeachment & removal, and in fact support it.

He was confirmed by the Senate, so obviously he was qualified.
 
Really? Not his extensive record? His rulings? His outstanding hiring and promoting of women? But an impassioned defense after being ruthlessly attacked in a sham of a hearing, which could only be rivaled by Barnum & Bailey?
I saw a man rise to the occasion and summon the will and courage to fight for his name, his record, his dignity his wife, his daughters, his volunteer work, his career and his place on the Supreme Court. I saw a man I admired for fighting back against a seemingly insurmountable offensive from the Left.

You have to remember that feelings are more important than facts. Welcome to the new world.
 
3 decades on this planet. How did I ever survive without telling a story about a rape accusation every 10 threads?

And then, the clock started clapping.

You know, it pisses me off because I thought twice about sharing this because I might be ridiculed. But, I thought it would be some feminist taking my ex-girlfriend's side in an era when accusation is as good as conviction. Someone might also think there was more to it. I went out with a girl at a college in Va Beach. She was a Christian. I was her first real boyfriend. She was more of a bookworm and not adventurous. I met a girl surfing at Sandbridge and that was it. I felt bad. Then, what I shared did happen. I knew a girl from Botswana who was Indian. Her boyfriend was American. They were the perfect couple until she took gender studies. Or, women's studies as it was called. Every time I hear accusations, I think about my ex.

No you didn't. Nobody asked you. You came up with it once, and then you posted. Congrats. You have the sexual assaults story which can't be proven and has no record of ever existing except in your alleged exchanges you totes magotes swear happened.

I would be surprised if posters who have thought long and hard to share their sexual assaults allegation stories.

Your virtue signaling is strong.

Impeachment is only one solution. The other is of course adding additional seats to eliminate the value of Kavanaugh's position.

You misspelled "Stack the court and change the rules". Tsk tsk.
 
Democrats are looking to divert from the failed 3rd debate, so they'll latch on to a load of hearsay in a book as their shiny object.
 

See what ex-senate major leader Harry Reid's first use of the nuclear option has caused and this is just the beginning. If it took 60 votes for cloture, Kavanaugh never would have been confirmed. The 60 vote requirement usually meant some of the minority party senators had to approve the nomination. Not now. When the senate is controlled by the same party that the president is. Any extremist judge is guaranteed to be confirmed thanks to Harry Reid.

With members of congress of the same party as the president being more part of the administration than of the institution of congress, anything goes. No longer does a president have to worry about getting any nomination confirmed now thanks to Reid. That is if the president and control of the senate is of the same party. So much for being a check on the power of the presidency. Reid threw that out the window with his first use.

McConnell is just as bad as Reid, two peas in a pod are those two very partisan political hacks.
 
This has about the same amount of evidence as: RBG felt up Abe Lincoln without his consent.
 
Democrats have made a woman's word worthless. Doubt has become a reflexive response. Ford should do time......

Sounds like you had 30 good years without being a Democrat.
 
Possible.

The calculus becomes whether there's more votes to be gained by appealing to crossovers, or through base motivation. Quite honestly, with today's polarization there indeed might be more to gain through base motivation. That's the tact Trump took in 2016, and it worked for him. And he has apparently made the same calculus for 2020. I see no reason why the Dems would not do the same. It was a winning formula in 2016, and might very well prevail in 2020.

Sadly, Trump may have been ahead of the curve in spotting this new trend of drawing more success from your base, rather than the middle, during presidential elections. It sucks for the country, as I believe we are best governed from the middle. But it may be the way that occurs forward. If so, be prepared for regular hellacious political whiplash & a continuously divided electorate. Argh!
What she fails to understand is that there are next to no people in this country who are "on the fence" about Trump at this point.

Polls show that even though a good 41-43% of the public hasn't changed their minds in support of Trump, there are also 53-57% of people who despise him, and they are not changing their minds either.

Poll after poll, after poll has 53-54% (you see this number a lot) saying they will "definitely" vote against Trump in 2020.

52% Plan to Vote Against Trump Next Year - For Now - Rasmussen Reports(R)

The majority of moderate voters are also ready to vote against Trump, with only a small percentage (3%) of those planning to vote Democrat even considering voting for Trump in 2020.

Just Who Are These Undecided Voters, Anyway? | The Cook Political Report

Voters were asked whether they would definitely or probably vote for President Trump next year, or definitely or probably vote for the Democratic candidate. Among all registered voters, 29 percent said they would definitely vote for Trump, 9 percent said they would probably vote for him, 13 percent said they would probably vote for the Democrat, and 34 percent would definitely side with the Democrat. That gives Democrats a 47 to 38 percent advantage. Eight percent were undecided, and 7 percent either refused to answer or said they would vote for someone else.

Thirty percent of the respondents, a total of 603, can be called swing voters, who were either undecided or only “probably” going to vote for either Trump or the Democrat. Of the 9 percent who said they would probably vote for Trump, just over half (5 percent of all voters) said there was a chance they would vote for the Democrat, while 4 percent said no chance. Of the 13 percent who would probably vote for the Democrat, just a quarter (3 percent of all voters) said that there was a chance they would vote for Trump, while the others said there was no chance. Those who only probably would vote for one candidate but definitely would not vote for the other have a good chance of either not voting or throwing a vote to a third-party candidate.

These numbers mirror the 2012 election, where Obama won moderates by 10+ and the popular by 54%, which tells me that most of those 4.2 million Obama 2012 voters that sat out 2016 are coming home.

IMHO, it's too early, but the metrics are against a Trump repeat.
 
So much for "Innocent until proven guilty"

Democrats are always wanting to use the courts to overturn laws they do not like and that don't fit their liberal policy stances. Win elections and get it done in the Congress and White house. Judges are supposed to interpret law as written not to legislate from the bench to make it something they cant get passed in congress or signed by the President.
 
Democratic candidates are desperate for ANYTHING to grasp on to.

Looks like Kavanaugh was desperate for someone to grab onto his dick once he gets a beer buzz on..

Maybe I could be a Republican. I hear folks would vote for a pedo Republican long before they voted for a Demo. You can't pay for that for sort of brand endorsement.

Women are practically worthless in the eyes of the GOP. How many are there now in the upper echelons of the party? Repub women are expected to stand by their men even when they are running around grabbing ******s or putting their dicks in some other woman's hand.
