What's happening is that the Democrats are being utterly demolished.
Judge Kavanaugh knew what was coming.
That didn't make it EASIER to take; my guess is that it made him ANGRIER.
People have watched too much TV.
You DON'T humiliate the accuser.
By treating her gently, the Republicans got the votes they needed from the usual obstructionist suspects.
Kavanaugh–DESPITE A GLOBAL ATTACK BY THE PRESS–made it out of committee.
The Democrats and their Zombies are demanding an FBI investigation.The longer this goes on, the WORSE it is for the Democrats.
They're getting their FBI investigation.
"We couldn't find any evidence that any of the accusations are true."
Kavanaugh VOLUNTEERED to endure this.
Moles in the ranks of the Democrats have kept him informed of every new development.
And @SenFeinstein is being flayed alive.
The FBI investigation is giving senators COVER to vote FOR Kavanaugh.
It's a week in which you can BOMBARD THEIR OFFICES with demands for a "Yes" vote.
You didn't even think of that, did you?
It's also a week in which OTHER STUFF can come out.
About the ACCUSERS.
About their LAWYERS
This IS a trap for the Democrats.
The entire confirmation process was a trap.
YOU are going to Think Progress and getting hysterical because leftist fanatics haven't seen the light.
THEY DON'T MATTER.
"Oh, but the sheeple will–"
SHUT UP, you defeatist son of a bitch.
I don't want to hear your incurable terror.
PISS OFF.
You terror-addicts don't get it.
The reason you go searching for bad news is that you're masochists who are only happy when you're miserable.
Drama!
That's what you crave.
The reality is that the Republicans F*CKED the Democrats on every level. And by having a totally useless FBI investigation that will turn up NOTHING, the Republicans give cover to senators who would otherwise vote "No."
Flake got his wish. In return, he will cooperate. So will MANY OTHERS. It's a Trumpian business deal.
For the next 7 days call your senator constantly. Tell the person who's picking up the phone ConfirmKavanaugh. Hang up and redial. It keeps the other side from calling in.
