The Supreme Court nomination mess is done. And, Brett Kavanaugh refused to answer simple questions. Lied about being a belligerent drunk in college. “I didn’t do it! I didn’t do it! And, displayed a tantrum worthy of any 2-year-old. The only part missing was the falling out kicking and screaming while banging his head on the floor. Did you see the look on his wife’s face?
I’ve seen that same look on many a Mother’s face when their kid does that in public. I’ve seen it on my own face when my kid did it. We stand there with our arms crossed and watch until the idiot wears themselves out. Exhausted the kid just lays there whimpering. “You done?” A few more soft kicks and then that quiet.
We all got to watch a bratty kid become the second Republican Judge accused of sexual assault to sit on the U.S. Supreme Court. Guess the tantrum payed off. The other Republican brats pushed his nomination through. The Judge showed his true colors when he yelled that the Democrats were getting back at him for Bill Clinton. What the hell was that about? Did he mean Hillary?
Arizona Senator Flake, a Republican on his way out the door, made some noise after being confronted by two sexual assault survivors as he attempted to leave the elevator. “Look at me. Look at me.” Security? Then there was an agreement to have the FBI investigate, but only four witnesses. There was a line of witnesses against him including some of his college drinking buddies, former roommate and another woman who says she pushed his private parts away from her her face.
Trump came out at a press conference in favor of Kavanaugh and treated a woman reporter like dirt and make a fool of himself but, what’s new about that. He said the FBI could go for it but, they only have a week to wrap up the investigation. Was that a dig at the FBI for not calling off the dogs on him. A week? I’ve seen investigations take longer over a $5 bag of weed.
Senator Susan Collins of Maine considered a swing vote caved. And, while all that was going on the New York Times story implicating Trump in tax schemes including tax evasion and fraud broke. See what I mean? I have no jaw left to drop. No worries I still have time to grow another one just in time for the Midterm elections.
