The main issue is that he has lied repeatedly under oath to Congress.

Various legal scholars write that he is unlikely to get charged with perjury as no one else who lies to Congress gets charged with perjury.

Nonetheless, a man who lies repeatedly while under oath seems a poor choice for the Supreme Court.

Trump hasn't been seen in nearly a week and his tweets appear to have been put out by staff members with more coherent thought processes. But little in support of Kavanaugh.

Manafort has agreed to fully cooperate, Cohen already is cooperating, as is Trump's Chief Financial Officer.

It may be that the administration has more pressing matters with than his Supreme court nominee.

'Ford further claimed she was able to escape when the friend in the room, Kavanaugh’s Georgetown Preparatory School classmate Mark Judge, jumped on top of them, sending all three tumbling off the bed. Ford escaped and locked herself in a bathroom for a brief period before fleeing the house, she said.'

https://dailycaller.com/2018/09/16/k...lic-interview/

Mark Judge, the one Christine Ford says was the hero, has stated that none of this ever happened. She is making it up.

Some women are liars and are not to be believed.

This is clearly just another Democrat left smear job, just the latest of many. What a bunch of vile scumbags these people are. There is apparently nothing that is too low-down or despicable for these people. Nothing.

"By late August, Ford had decided not to come forward, calculating that doing so would upend her life and probably would not affect Kavanaugh’s confirmation. “Why suffer through the annihilation if it’s not going to matter?” she said.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/inves...=.e38645e77726

"Speaking publicly for the first time, Ford said that one summer in the early 1980s, Kavanaugh and a friend — both “stumbling drunk,” Ford alleges — corralled her into a bedroom during a gathering of teenagers at a house in Montgomery County.

While his friend watched, she said, Kavanaugh pinned her to a bed on her back and groped her over her clothes, grinding his body against hers and clumsily attempting to pull off her one-piece bathing suit and the clothing she wore over it. When she tried to scream, she said, he put his hand over her mouth.

“I thought he might inadvertently kill me,” said Ford, now a 51-year-old research psychologist in northern California. “He was trying to attack me and remove my clothing.”

Ford said she was able to escape when Kavanaugh’s friend and classmate at Georgetown Preparatory School, Mark Judge, jumped on top of them, sending all three tumbling. She said she ran from the room, briefly locked herself in a bathroom and then fled the house.

Ford said she told no one of the incident in any detail until 2012, when she was in couples therapy with her husband.

All this has to do is swing one Republican vote and Kavanaugh's confirmation fails.

GOP women currently serving in the U.S. Senate:
Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV)
Susan Collins (R-ME)
Joni Ernst (R-IA)
Deb Fischer (R-NE)
Lisa Murkowski (R-AK)

If you ask your average woman in this country, she will tell you that the MeToo movement has become less about the abuse of women and more about personal grudges, which is unfortunate, because some real cases will now be ignored because some people wanted to put on a show.

Sen. Feinstein should be ashamed of herself for manufacturing this story.

There is no lie these people will not tell and there is no slander that they will not commit. They have proven it here, yet again.

I think we fully understand that, given their behavior. These Democrats see this as D-Day and will stop at nothing to discredit a good man such as Kavanaugh.

There is no lie Trumpies will not defend and there is no slander that they will not commit. They have proven it here, yet again.

Please disclose all materials relevant to the thorough investigation I'm assuming you've performed.

Otherwise, it's just more heresay.
