More games from the D's, already trying to get investigation unlimited in scope. Firing up the right base. No dog whistle good do any better.

Firing up the base interested in justice and equality! Firing up the base that truly care about this country! Bring it on!

Vox went through the hearing transcript and noted down every time Ford or Kavanaugh answered a question and every time they didn't
(answered = gave a specific answer or answered that s/he doesn`t know ... not answered = refused to answer or gave an answer that didn't address the question)

Here a nice graphics with both transcripts next to each other (and each time where one of them didn't answer marked in red)

I find Trump an idiot incapable of running the country, and too evil to trust with anything more dangerous than a plastic spork. So I’m gonna vote for him cause Democrat people look funny. #makeAmericaMoronicAgain - KidApprovedFakeMinority

Caricature aside, you don't switch all at once. Just because you realise the left is horrible, doesn't mean that you instantaneously believe Trump is the greatest president since Lincoln.

JUMPING SHIP:

http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2018/09/poll-kavanaugh-trump-losing-support-of-republican-women.html

Not a fake Tomas Mendoza... but actual trends show that republican women have rapidly jumped ship from supporting both Kavanaugh and Trump since the revelations of sexual assault became known. 58% of republicans support Kavanaugh and 49% of republican women support him (still too high), but these numbers are ****ty for someone that Trump is pushing.

Trump's approval rating among republicans is down to 72% from 88% before.

This indicates many white women that voted for Trump are now turning their backs on him.

"I will be voting Republican in 2018 and for Trump in 2020." - Yeah that's an indication "Tomas Mendoza" is a huge fake. Should have caught that bit. Senate Democrats handled it quite well, and anyone who is claiming to be switching their vote to the party of rapists in 2018 and 2020 is fake or incredibly stupid. Nobody would be that ****ing dumb.

Adhere to the rule of law? So Mr. Kavanaugh who has committed perjury on Thursday and back in 2004 to the Senate is respecting the rule of law? How about those stolen documents that were stolen from the DNC that he claimed he never received to Congress back in 2004, yet actually did? That's called perjury.

Fake ass copy and paste. I expect the FBI to investigate every aspect of Kavanaugh's complete lack of moral character.

[JohnT]

Lolz. Anybody stupid enough to believe that "Tomas Mendoza" is real is stupid enough to post this to Apolyton.

Wait... kiddie diddler posted this. I stand correct.

[Giancarlo]

Go to hell.

[Giancarlo]

You want power politics? Look at the damn GOP that won't let other accusers testify, then nominate an unqualified unhinged partisan piece of **** like Kavanaugh. Cry me a river you nasty repulsive troll.

[Giancarlo]

Uncorroborated bull****. False accuser? Oh so she would put herself in harms way including vile death threats? You ****ing disgust me. If there is a hell, people like you will go there.

[Broken_Erika]

Flakers gonna Flake.

So it's a paraplegic camel now?

For the record my own belief is Ford ia a false accuser and colluding with the Democrats to perpetrate another hoax.
