Brett Kavanaugh's page is trending higher than Ford's page, on a Per Day average basis, which is a sign that America has not totally lost its mind.
Ford: a total of $528,475 in 11 days, 48,043 per day
Kavanaugh: a total of $328,394 (at the moment) in 5 days, 65,678 per day.
Let's keep this going and surpass Ford's total.

The person who initiated it said for increased personal security and/or legal fees or he could donate it to charity.
Please don't.
Why not?
See my post #37.
If you want to donate money to a good cause, use it to get pro-Trump Republicans elected in 2018.
Well, I dont agree. If Kavanaugh cant or wont use the money, he can donate it to charity. Its a way of showing support for Kavanaugh. And by the way, what I gave to gofundme did not cut into any political or charitable donations that I make every month.
Its a way of showing support for Kavanaugh.
No, it's not.
It hurts our effort.
It might make you feel good about yourself but it also negates one of the best tools we have in this fight; that Blasey-Ford's $700k GoFundMe account was financial motivation and is being used to pay her "pro bono" lawyers.
"But Judge Kavanaugh has a GoFundMe account too!"
And they'll be right.
Stupid. Just stupid.
He’s never made big money in Washington as he has worked in the federal government for at least the past 25 years. He’s probably on about $180,000.00, which is not a large salary around here for what it costs to live here. His wife has a job as a village manager.

He makes 220K as a judge, with an additional 27K lecturing.
His wife was the personal secretary of POTUS GWB.
His Dad was a CEO and DC lobbyist.
Justice Kavanaugh will be just fine.
Either way, plenty of more deserving/needy people around.
How will the media and leftists politicians know that Judge Kavanaugh has the support of the people if not for things such ad this?
If this surpasses Fords page, the media somewhere will be forced to report it.
That alone is a win.
Curling up in a corner is the strategy of the Pre Trump era. How did that work out for Conservatives?
You sound like a liberal in that you claim you are the smart one and everyone who disagrees is stupid.
This GoFundMe crap is libtard idiocy and it is undermining a possible charge against Blasey-Ford. It is not strategy. It is stupid.
So we shouldn’t use social media or crowdfunding to fight the left.
Decreasing the number of arrows in your quiver is seldom, if ever, a smart strategy.
Suit yourself. Keep an eye on this account and let's see what happens to it.
As I said above, want to help? Donate to pro-Trump candidates.
This isn't help. This is damaging.
I hope the guy who started it buys himself a shiny new car. Maybe that'll teach people to stay away from this GoFundMe crap.
I never said that.
Of course you use social media!
What you don't do is pad the $175,000 salary of a Federal judge while at the same time attempting to weave a case that the person bringing bogus assault charges against him is in it for the money and using her $700k GoFundMe account as a slush fund to pay off her "pro bono" lawyers.
That's where this stuff if stupid and damaging to Kavanaugh!
