What is the halflife of the Kavanaugh stories?

Yes, the nuts will never forget, and that is good. Will they drag the carcass of defeat up the election? Beyond?

At some far off time should the leftists attain power, it will all disappear in the memory hole.

Long ago I knew an old barroom brawler, he always said if it is a serious fight, you need to damage them so they do not forget you.

I think the Dems will do surprisingly poorly in the mid-terms. And I think that kills the Kavanaugh topic. They will think they misjudged the public feeling on Kavanaugh and they will try to walkaway from it and try something different.

Not long. Maybe until the next news cycle or two - depending on if some of the FISA stuff gets unredacted.

Ah but they CAN’T do anything different. They have mainstreamed the radical Left, which knows no compromise with anyone.

If anything, they’re only going to get more crazy and more violent from here.

What we’re dealing with here is nothing less than a fanatical Communist jihad. They will kill us or die trying.

The FBI has investigated Kavanaugh 7 times now. He was one of GW Bush’s top advisers. There were no credible relevant accusations made against him and nothing that will come up. The fight against him has united the Republican Party for once. The media will dump this crap like a hot potato because at this point all it does is energizing Republicans and making the Democrats look like a bunch of howling buffoons.

Apparently, Dems, their activists, have to be paid to remember.

Depends. The media will consistently push the narrative even if it is low key. Look at how they started suggesting that Anita Hill was innocent and telling the truth and abused by the Senate. They’re making it appear as if the vast majority supported her despite the event being well within living memory.

“..The fight against him has united the Republican Party for once....”

One of the few positive aspects of the kangaroo court. It was great to see some Repubs stand up and be counted...

As “the media” evolve into entertainment and some infotaimment ‘news’, they still need to show a profit.

Money talks, BS walks.

It may not happen in time for the mid terms, but, if the Anita Hill experience showed us anything, someone will write a book and in about a year, a lot of people will believe Ms. Ford.

I have no idea what we can do to stop this from happening. The left controls the media.

The swamp never forgets but release the FISA papers, fire Rosienstine, Muller and work draining the swamp and make current events history by burring them in new battles.

Very good!

Have not heard much out of Dukakis in years, is he still alive?
Could there be a history they cannot whitewash?

In certain circles, the story is set that Trump put a gang rapist on the supreme court and Republicans ignored nit just one sex assault victim, but all sex assault victims because one of them stood in his way. That’s their truth now, and it’s also incorporating the Clarence Thomas claims from long ago to build a narrative that if you support Republicans, you not only accept rapists in your midst, you promote them. It’s not long before they will take as gospel the ‘fact’ that any vote for any republican is evidence of someone either being a rapist or an apologist for one.

The people who believe this are small in number, but some of them have very outsized voices because they live in the insular echo chambers of journalism, education, HR departments of large corporations, and entertainment. They’ll do everything they can to propogate their version of truth to the young and the malleable.

Just like a real nuclear halflife, their presence and effect may diminish over time, maybe diminsh a lot in the near term as the next Trump-inspired outrage is ginned up, but it will never really disappear.

Much less work now with Photoshop.

I suspect the rats and fellow travelers will move Ford in and out of the photo if they think it will trick some.

Pubs will add 5-6 seats in the Senate this time.

If/when he gets re-elected in 2020,
Hopefully the pubs hold on to those Senate seats.

Ruth Buzzi Ginsberg will be 86 this March
Stephen Breyer just turned 80.

Sonia Sotomayor is 64 and has type 1 diabetes and seems the disease is worsening.

Clarence Thomas is 70 and currently the longest serving on the court at 26 years.
(Might he retire after 2020, knowing Trump will appoint a conservative?)

Should the economy continue at this pace, 2 years from now,
any politician that hooks himself to Trump, should do well in the election.

Dems have shot themselves in the foot.
I think the wound will get infected and the infection spread.

By Tuesday there should be someone claiming Trump actually did shoot someone on 5th Avenue and will provide a list of who “will” corroborate.

2 will be dead, 1 will be unreachable, another will be found to suffer from alzheimer’s and the last one will not have ever heard of the accuser or seen anyone get shot

I will answer it this way:

Close your eyes and tell me the first thing you think of when I say Clarence Thomas?

That’s how long. Plus about ten years.

The Brawler’s wisdom translates into prosecuting the false accusations and the government enemies who are at the heart of the fraud. Yes, PROSECUTE THEM.
