Apparently there’s been a big surge in new young voter registrations since Taylor Swift announced to her 112 million Instagram followers her support for two state Democrats. The GOP is worried that it’s now their turn to be #SwiftBoated.
The flawed #Kavanaugh hearing worked in one sense. It showed him as he really is: a hot-tempered, ferociously ambitious political warrior who honed his gut fighter skills in Yale’s Federalist Society, Ken Starr’s jihad and the Bush-Cheney White House. He’s a ward boss in robes.
I gotta say...
Listening to #Kavanaugh make up bullsh*t for his yearbook entries, was very "high school" of him.
What was your worst cover-up lie to your parents when you were in high school?
Mine? "Some old guy in a truck dropped the six pack in the snow, and we just found it."
By most accounts, the ‘91 Anita Hill hearing for Justice Thomas was a disgrace. The story of America is progress. Over 20 witnesses were heard in ‘91. The merit of the #Kavanaugh accusation will be determined by testimony from just 2 persons. 27 years later, we’ve gone backwards.
in 5 minutes @KamalaHarris established that #Kavanaugh:
– has not taken a polygraph
– won't call for FBI investigation
– didn't watch Ford's testimony
– faced same vet as Gorsuch
– concedes that treating some women well doesn't preclude a man from doing ill to others
😱WOW. #Kavanaugh completely lost his composure. He is simultaneously YELLING and CRYING, then interrupts @SenFeinstein and talks over her.
This guy is melting down before our very eyes.
TOTAL meltdown by #Kavanaugh.😱
Kavanaugh repeatedly interrupted the senators, SHOUTED over them, while alternatively blubbering and mumbling under his breath.
How on earth can the @GOP still support this guy⁉️
