Any conservative in here watched the hearing? If so what your view on this case?

I have a friend who liked Graham a lot and felt he was one of the reasonable GOP members. She is super left leaning, but likes Baker and other Republicans that can keep their politics to focusing on good management and tempering the wild pushes for social programs people like her push for.

She was also raped in college, reported it and nothing happened. Her school didn’t care and then police treated her like shit. She now hates Graham for being another one of the long line of men who have let her down over the last couple of decades. I don’t think the GOP realizes the damage they are doing to themselves today. Schools are showing this hearing. This could do more damage to them than Trump.



Also from Graham:



Apparently he is a complete lying piece of shit now.

At least he didn't ask her to make him some coffee.

Did the reporters not immediately remind him about his peer Al Franken, who the Dems kicked to the curb... two months ago? Three months?

I wish Graham good luck finding woman willing to go to jail for lying under oath about fake rape accusations.

What? Here is a senator on tape saying he is considering falsely accusing his political opponents of sexual misconduct. There should be consequences for this.

It is so wild and seems out of character for what I know about Graham. Especially when the Democrats didn’t cause any of this. These women made the claim on their own.

Graham always seemer to me to be a crazy person who has like 1-2 months of sanity out of every year.

He has times when he makes sense and can make good points but its always sandwiched between large periods of him being crazy.

The crazy thing about that somehow it is now accepted that she was assaulted. So she's no longer a Democrat plant. She isn't lying. But it was someone else? So desperate.

Also the prosecutor, I would hope, is getting paid a ton. Because whatever law firm she is with this is a PR disaster not only for her but for them as well. She will need to take a long ass vacation.

In any other country the backlash from this would force a politician to retire.

So Kavanaugh is next I think, if Grassley has a rabbit to pull out of his hat now would be the time to do it.

Also Graham has gone insane:

Graham saying Kavanaugh is as much of a victim as Ford tells me this whole thing is over. Kavanaugh is screwed and they are just lashing out. Once you admit Kavanaugh is a victim, you are ceding confidence in confirmation.

It's the obvious reason Rosenstein's meeting was pushed out. If they were able to keep Kavanaugh, it would make sense to minimize the damage they take by confirming him by flooding the media with Russia stuff. But now that they know Kavanaugh is just a bad idea, they are letting the full power of the media invalidate his nomination so that it is easier to scurry away from him. It is just about letting people down easy at this point.

Graham lashing out only serves to confirm this.

Kananaugh will be sworn in as Trump's survival depends on it. If the GOP were less like Trump they would have never allowed such a nomination in the first place.
