A Question I'd Like the GOP to Answer ...

[NanceGreggs]

We've now heard that Trump described Kavanaugh as someone who "wouldn't even be in a law firm. Who would have had him? Nobody. Totally disgraced. Only I saved him.”

So the question is: Why was Trump pushing a SCOTUS nominee who he saw as a totally disgraced loser who needed 'saving' - and why was Trump so willing to 'save' him?

Yeah, WE here know the obvious answer. But I'd like the GOP to explain this in full detail - along with a full explanation as to how Kavanaugh's many debts magically disappeared upon his nomination.

As always, the devil is in the details - and I'd like a detailed explanation from the PTB-in-the-GOP as to why their "pResident" was so insistent that a "totally disgraced loser" be appointed to the highest court in the land.

It would seem that in appointing Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court, Trump forgot the bleedin' obvious: He'd given Kavanaugh a position he couldn't fire him from - ergo, Kavanaugh has no incentive to do the Orange Anus's bidding out of fear of losing his job.

The only thing Kavanaugh does have to fear is an investigation into how he wound up on the Supreme Court in the first place.

1. And, the only answer you're ever likely to get is---"Because". nt

[brewens]

2. McConnell had said "anyone but Kavanaugh" off TFG's short list. There was a reason for that and

he's not the only one that knows.

Congress was denied documents they were entitled to also. I thought all we might need was Congress getting those now that they should be able to. No one has said if Biden can get all that information from the FBI investigation. I'm assuming he can.

If Kavanaugh really is a sex offending alcohol junkie with a gambling habit, there should have been quite a few people coming forward.

3. So, use the threat of expanding the court to get that investigation!

The investigation that SHOULD have happened in the first place, without the absurd limitations that were put on the investigation (the investigation that never WAS an investigation).

[gab13by13]

5. No, this is a good reason to expand the court,

and have an investigation, call Wray before a House committee.

4. J' Accuse

Succinctly stated. I also want the answer to your question!

[bucolic_frolic]

6. Certain arrangements and accommodations were made

Wonder if we'll ever learn what they were?

[kacekwl]

7. Be a great question for

Meet the Press today. Or Face the Nation. Add to the list of questions that need to be asked and answered. Instead we get questions why Biden won't work with pukes.

[kentuck]

8. That would be good to know.

Just what was it that Trump thought "totally disgraced" him??

[KS Toronado]

9. In all fairness, didn't TFG always say nice things about him prior to getting on the bench?

And it was only after Kavanaugh ruled against him (election?) that he started saying negative things about him?

17. Totally sucks when the unqualified corrupt POS

You gave a hand up to behaves exactly like you do. Que surprise.

[jaxexpat]

10. I don't think kavanaugh is afraid of much of anything.

His position is, thanks to the constitution, essentially unassailable. And thanks to the nature of US politics, uncontestable. His fate is to expire from a genetically predisposed episode of terminally lethal blotchiness with complications from weakness of personality syndrome.

11. It's like TFG went out of his way to appoint the worse possible candidate for each job.

His intention was to destroy our government from the git go.

[MyOwnPeace]

13. Sure seems to be that way, doesn't it?

"Only the best......."

[Hugin]

22. Bannon turned him on to that scheme.

Part of their divide and destroy nihilistic philosophy.

[Trueblue Texan]

26. That's what I've said all along. nt

[TheRickles]

12. And why was K's friend Mark Judge never called to testify?

He was the only person who witnessed what happened between Kavanaugh and Blasey Ford. Should have be Witness #1.

[Ohioboy]

14. That is a very good simple question

If they ever do answer it will probably be along the lines of "Trump says stuff" or "it's not illegal to appoint a total disgrace to the Supreme Court".

15. Kav wants an investigation? Nah!

Kav wants an investigation? Nah!

[erronis]

23. Nah, I'm good. Let's not go there. Let's look forward.

[lsewpershad]

16. Is it time yet

for Biden and Dems to do something about the SC?

[Clash City Rocker]

18. If you said "I like beer" while crying during a job interview, you wouldn't get the job

And the job for which you’d be interviewing would probably less important than the job he got. That tells you all you need to know.

[llmart]

21. Sums it up nicely.

As a 35-year retired HR professional who hired people at various types of organizations throughout my career I can tell you that you are 100% correct. I witnessed a few candidates for jobs that did or said some fairly unacceptable answers to basic interview questions, but I can honestly say that not once did I ever see anyone cry.

19. The GOP Response: Oh Look! Obama Wore A Tan Suit! Benghazi!!

Hitlery's emails!!! It was a loving, normal tourist crowd and you're all a bunch of fakers!!!

[question everything]

20. Why? What has triggered this comment?

[Ferrets are Cool]

24. The answer would consist of lies and obfuscation

[mopinko]

25. and just how did that seat come open?

what did fg say to kennedy that stopped him in his tracks?

[PJMcK]

27. Why would Kavanaugh fear his past?

There are only three ways he could leave the Court: impeachment & conviction (ain't gonna happen), resignation (a real long shot) or death.

If confronted, Justice "I like beer" would just deny and stonewall. I don't expect him to resign and Senate Republicans will never vote to convict one of their own.

[malaise]

28. If he had one iota of shae he'd resign
