My husband, a staunch liberal, told me last night that he really does not care if this woman is lying because "ha ha.. karma for Garland".. Well, if the Dems don't do as well as previously predicted in November I guess Repub voters can say "ha ha.. karma for Kavanagh". When will this party of morals and decency end?
This won't impact the blue wave. The maniac's absurdities are far greater than this. He's due for a smackdown.

This is a waste of time because Ford is allowed to be as muddled as she wants, and it'll all be excused and even praised....

not one single piece of evidence that any of this actually happened. 100% hearsay

What a farce this is.
I have no doubt she is smart in her field, but she comes across as incredibly sheltered and privileged. She seems like a very fragile, weak person with a bit of a peter pan complex going on.

Bull -- those that are having issues with her testimony on Trump fans -- and only Trump fans.

Be real and get over yourself.

(for the record I'm not watching -- just reading comments and it is straight down party line or Trump lines right now, so let's not pretend there is any kind of special intelligence, wisdom).


EDIT: I have had one person who is not a Trump fan, question her credibility based on the flying issue and not remember what she passed on to The Post. As I said in another post, there is always one --lol.

But for the most part -- you think she is credible if you don't like Trump or aren't a conservative...and you think she isn't credible if you support Trump and want a conservative SCOTUS.

30 years too late to produce any "evidence". Hearsay and he said she saids is not evidence.

Men should be VERY afraid.

Sadly. It's a new world.

I agree with this. But my comment was regarding the perception American women were getting from watching a bunch of old men interrogate Ford. Shades of Anita Hill, and even some of the same old men who crucified Hill. This is not playing well with them.
