Schumer on the Election: Kavanaugh’s Confirmation ‘Helped Us More Than It Hurt Us’
Washington Free Beacon ^ | November 11, 2018 | Jeffrey Cimmino

Posted on 11/11/2018 9:57:43 AM PST by kevcol

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D., NY) said Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation helped more than hurt the Democratic Party in last week's midterm elections.
.
.
.
"I think the president lost more votes because of the Kavanaugh issue than gained throughout the country," Schumer added.

Schumer was responding to a question from "State of the Union" host Jake Tapper about whether the Democrats got "outplayed when it came to the Kavanaugh nomination."

And this is the guy who said he’d fight any nominee Trump put forth, too.

No; the midterms are not a victory for the left. They’re exposing the fraud more and more too.

He’s right.

Ford was NEVER attacked as the LIAR she most obviously was.

They treated her as if she was a scared widdle girrly afraid of all those big WHITE angry men.
The people, the press, congress and the President were played like a fiddle.

Ya gotta call LIARS on their lies, or it’ll all go south.

There were PLENTY of facts to impeach her testimony—they JUST NEVER USED ANY OF THEM (they had to play ‘nice’ with the widdle girl.)

Right Schmucky, never mind that 4 Senators who voted against him were sent packing.

LOL, the Kavanaugh debacle helped Democrats???

Schumer is a good example, of liberal and media types, who never get out of the New York Washington axis, and just have no clue of people and opinions elsewhere.

“There were PLENTY of facts to impeach her testimony—they JUST NEVER USED ANY OF THEM (they had to play ‘nice’ with the widdle girl.)”

I agree with you, but in the end tearing apart the witness might have led to a sympathy vote for liberals. I suspect half of the public will accept a lie based on emotion instead of a truth based of logic and facts. It’s important not to create sympathy for the liar. What I’d like to see now are prosecutions based on the lies. However, I don’t think that will happen.

One really bad aspect of allowing Ford to get away with the lie is that future candidates will be thin on the ground. Who want’s to put up with the damage to reputation and family just to serve the public? Also, a percentage of us DO have something in our past that could be used against us even if it has no bearing on us at present. Jesus forgave. Liberals use.

Ruth Buzzy's replacement should be a great comfort and assistance!

Tell yourself whatever makes you feel good, Chuck.

A Supreme Court Justice appointment TRUMPS whatever gains you Dims made through fraud.

could he have meant in the House where they will have 12 to 18 seats beyond 218.

So far they are +32

... and just have no clue of people and opinions elsewhere.

OTOH, he's just pep-talking the troops, because eventually the fraudster tactics will work again under a weaker president and/or nominee.

Sorry Chuck. What’s helped you more
than anything, is massive voter fraud.
Four states still contesting votes. The
Kavanaugh fiasco cost you the Senate.
