By nominating Kavanaugh before Barrett, Trump is giving us a chance to watch the characters and the narrative that they will pull out of their hats — and sure enough, there is a Blasey Ford connection with Corcept, the abortion pill maker, apparently. She supposedly designs statistical studies for the company. I tried to find a link to this information other than Althouse or InfoWars but couldn’t.
The left will go insane over Barrett.
You probably know Feinstein has already taken some shots at Barrett and we can be sure the left by now has perfected that attack. If it is able to defeat the K nomination it will be encouraged to be even more aggressive with Barrett.
Not sure I agree Trump used K as an ice-breaker. I think he is anxious to break the USSC 4-4 tie and in fact had good reason to think K would have an easier trip through the committee than Barrett. And, I do not think a man like K would voluntarily expose his family to the sort of damage we have seen; there is not much, if anything, that can compensate for that.
But you may be correct if the only real criticism of Barrett to be raised by the left is that she is a Catholic. Those days have been over for some time.
