Guy looks like a geek.
I'm surprised his name isn't "Chad Ludington III"........
In college and after he may have been sort of like the character Dan Akroyd played in "TRADING PLACES".

A man who attended Yale University with Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh went on the record on Sunday accusing Kavanaugh of "mischaracterizing" his alcohol consumption during last week's Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.
Chad Ludington in an interview with The New York Times said he saw Kavanaugh "staggering from alcohol consumption" multiple times, describing him as a "belligerent and aggressive" drunk.
"It is truth that is at stake, and I believe that the ability to speak the truth, even when it does not reflect well upon oneself, is a paramount quality we seek in our nation’s most powerful judges,” Ludington said in a statement, according to the Times.
Ludington said Kavanaugh during the hearing downplayed the "degree and frequency" of his drinking. He told the Times that the FBI has asked him to share his story at the bureau's Raleigh, N.C., office on Monday.
It is unclear if his testimony will play a role in the week-long FBI investigation into allegations of sexual assault against Kavanaugh, the Times reported.
Several other classmates in recent days have accused Kavanaugh of misleading Congress over his alcohol consumption. Former FBI Director James Comey in a Times op-ed published Sunday charged Kavanaugh with "lying" under oath.
Kavanaugh throughout the hearing insisted that he has never blacked out or passed out due to alcohol consumption.
Christine Blasey Ford, the woman accusing him of assaulting her in 1982, has said that Kavanaugh and his friend Mark Judge were intoxicated during the incident.
Kavanaugh told outside counsel Rachel Mitchell during the hearing that he has never "passed out" from drinking.
"I’ve gone to sleep," he said. "But I’ve never blacked out, that’s the allegation. And that’s, that’s wrong."
Kavanaugh appeared agitated by questions from Democratic senators about his history with partying and drinking, at one point asking Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) if she has ever blacked out due to alcohol consumption.
"I like beer,” he said in response to one of Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse’s (D-R.I.) questions. “Do you like beer, senator? What do you like to drink?"
He said repeatedly that he likes beer but does not drink heavily.
The FBI probe will last a week and investigate Ford's allegation as well as claims from Deborah Ramirez, who has accused Kavanaugh of exposing himself without her consent during a Yale University party in the 1980s.
Ramirez reportedly spoke to the FBI on Sunday.
Thanks! Hoping to hear from you so we can trash him!! Sincerely, NYT. /s

If Kav had a picture of himself smoking weed while wearing a stupid hat, I'm sure that would totally change the leftists' view of his qualifications to be a Justice. /s
OK. I want to know if this “professor” was interviewed for any of the previous background investigations done since 1993. If so, how does his current statement mesh with his prior interview?
They didn't want to hear, "Obama did it and he became president, which is more important than a judge."
If Brett started the fight, why did the other guy go to jail?
No one named “Chad” deserves credibility on any subject whatsoever.
Constuctive(sarc) and useless comment.The name calling is a nice touch too, How liberal of you.
college vs high school ?
chris dudley vs this guy ?
So they weren’t able to reconcile the hard working, brilliant, #1 in his HS graduating class with a GANG RAPIST! So let’s go another route.......Kavanaugh The Exceptional, only becomes a gang rapist, along with belligerent and aggressive, when he is drinking.
Because Brett is a federal judge. Duh!
Quit applying logic. It will just make your head hurt.
Why are we talking about drinking in college? Feinswine had a Chinese spy working for her for 20 years
Does Kavanaugh have a drinking problem? Ask his colleauges on the DC circuit.

Now as far as him drinking beer in HS/college - he sure admitted to plenty of that on Thursday. Unless he did tons of drunk driving” then this supposed Yale classmate has nothing to provide, except that he may end up like that guy in Rhode Island.
Show Kavanaugh a little respect and I will do the same.
LOL!
You nailed it.
Trading Places came out in 1983. I bet they called that doober Winthorpe.
! The New Puritans!
your a hoot. X E5 grunt is offended by some one on a message board he never met never will using the term “pp” vs 100’s of other crud and vulgar terms they could have used and terms I am sure during tour 3 year period in the USA you used more often than once.
Like I said,thats rich.
