September 27, 2018 at 8:55 am EDT By Taegan Goddard 20 Comments
Jonathan Swan: Brett Kavanaugh is hopping mad about the late wave of allegations against him and will be charged up for this mornings hearing.
Team Kavanaugh sources last night ranged from nervous and unsure to modestly confident. All agreed that Kavanaughs Supreme Court confirmation hinges on how compelling he and Christine Blasey Ford are at the 10 a.m. Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.
The view from inside is that if Kavanaugh comes across as awkward, stiff, and evasive as he has in previous public appearances hes toast.
Also important: Everyone involved in Kavanaughs confirmation was blindsided by the specificity of the sworn testimony produced yesterday by Michael Avenatti.

Guy like that probably gets told his whole life that he's special and meaningful - and now that he's having that challenged by having to face consequences.

(10,952 posts)At least one of the woman senators needs to push his buttons enough to get him to lose his cool and look really really bad. They need to be the ones to ask him the really personal questions that will offend him bigly. Let him feel how to be on the other side of an attack.

Kavanaugh has been shown for what he is, a total disaster. That would be Cheeto's favorite word, am I right?

how about, deliberative, thoughtful, sorry for the women suffering but asking for a full hearing and FBI investigation to prove innocence... why is this so difficult for Brett? I think I know the answer...

(13,041 posts)i dont think a man with threats of not only possibly not making it on the SCOTUS, but being prosecuted by Maryland local police/AG would be mad at this point. He can come out swinging all he wants, but even if he does make it onto the SCOTUS, i am sure the indignance of the millions will prevail and he will be forced to resign in shame. I'm sure he's already been feeling ashamed already.

(12,586 posts)The Repugs are slathering at the thought of having an unbeatable majority of arch conservatives on the SCOTUS. As much as they rail against "activist judges," they only mean judges whose decisions are contrary to their donors' wishes.

There was a woman on Washington Journal this morning. Identified as Judy from Ohio. She is sick of these militant women who are ruining good men like Kavanaugh. She said it almost made her embarrassed to be a woman.
That is who people like Kavanaugh and Trump rely upon to keep their jobs.

Freethinker65
(10,021 posts)I also expect him to use religion to pander to the public (the GOP Senators do not care, they support Trump!), but they all want the easily led God fearing public to believe this church going fine gentleman would never even think of harming the fairer sex.
He will deny running with the popular crowd and getting drunk and say he was far too busy being a star athlete, dealing with academics, and devoting his free time to his lord and savior.

duforsure
(11,885 posts)About kavanaugh and other issues he's hiding . He 'll really be mad then. It's over for kavanaugh now , and others will step forward to denounce his false claims and stories about himself from his school years , and after. trump and the gop are in deep , deep trouble now. Trump and the gop have done this to themselves by nominating such a flawed and possibly criminal candidate. This won't be forgotten this Nov. . He will be removed from his position if by chance they pass him, and they all will suffer consequences from it.

(1,414 posts)Why, because he's being exposed for the piece of filth that he is? Hell, I'm happy that his wife and children have to be put through this public shame. It's good for them to know just what a pus filled boil their father/husband is. Of course, like all republicans, they'll make themselves into the victims, but underneath that act they'll always have to deal with the truth of their existence, namely they are either the offspring of or are married to trash.

The second anyone opposes them or denies them anything they scream bloody murder. Oh how I would love to be sixteen again and key Rapey Bretts car... you know, like back in the day...

The Court builds in economic and social systems that will entrench the corptocracy. That's all they really care about.

Most thinking people will see that this is a blatant lie, going a bit too far in his cover up. At least make the story believable.
