re: #541 Quoth the raven, Covfefe.

I called somebody out on their “both sides” bullshit last night. They said they were ashamed of Democrats and Republicans both for letting Kavanaugh happen, and I said, “What more could the Democrats have done?” He totally changed the topic and rambled on a little bit about BSAB, yada yada.

I’ve been trying to nail jello to the wall with Republicans all weekend. They tend to balk at simple questions that would force them to accept that Kavanaugh wasn’t some kind of victim.

Two of them dropped out at the simple question of whether, if Ford’s accusations were true, Kavanaugh should be confirmed. They went into handwaving and other avoidant behaviors to not take a position.

The other said that, No, Kavanaugh should not be confirmed if it were true, but then started the handwaving and avoidant dancing when asked if he felt that the investigation was sufficient to really address the question.

When they sense they’re being led away from victimhood, they balk.
