President Trump has drawn the line in our political sand and thrown this gauntlet down.

President Trump on Monday angrily attacked Democrats and the college professor who accused his Supreme Court nominee of a sex assault — calling the allegations “a hoax” and predicting the opposition party would pay a heavy price in the midterms.
“I thought the way they behaved was absolutely atrocious. I have never seen anything like it,” Trump told reporters as he prepared to board Marine One outside the White House, the first leg of a trip to Florida.
“I thought that the way they conducted themselves, the way they dealt with a high-level brilliant … going to be a great justice of the Supreme Court, the way they really tortured him and his family, I thought it was a disgrace. I thought it was one of the most disgraceful performances I have ever seen,” he said about the bruising confirmation process for Brett Kavanaugh, who was approved by the Senate 50-48 on Saturday.
Asked about reports that some Democrats might try to impeach Kavanaugh — who was accused of sexually assaulting Dr. Christine Blasey Ford when they both were teens — should they retake the House next month.
“I have been hearing that, that now they’re thinking of impeaching a brilliant jurist, a man that did nothing wrong, a man that was caught up in a hoax, that was set up by the Democrats,” said the commander-in-chief, who had called Ford a “very fine woman” and “a very credible witness” on Sept. 28.

For at least 6 more years. They will be a mess.
This President is too generous.
Lies, lies, and more lies.
Time to indict, try, and convict. Hard time and hard labor.
Trump seems to be the only elected official who has the guts to not lend credibility to Ford’s claims. I know he sorta did at first, but I’m glad he’s not doing it now. She should be exposed for the fraud that she is.
Just to be clear I don’t mean President Trump is lying. The other players were/are.
You are right. It was worse than a hoax. Climate change is a hoax. This was a direct assault on a human being, with calumny, libel and slander aforethought.
My prediction: just before the election she will admit it was all made up. The result will be spectacular.
This debacle got me to see some official CNN YouTube videos. I’ve never bothered before. Holy cow what a treat.
I dumped TV in the mid-90’s partly because I hated how biased the news was. I’d find myself shouting at the TV. Now, I can watch a YouTube video and make those comments in the thread. The response I get from the mindless followers are hilarious. It’s a lot of fun to give three or 10 sentence clear and supported replies regarding why their report is BS and then watch the left’s name calling begin, and then follow up with slow inserts of the knife followed by a few twists to make sure it does its work.
All the while being nice. :)
President Trump has drawn the line in our political sand and thrown this gauntlet down.
Absolutely, if Trump has proof that Ford and her former FBI friend fabricated any part of her story it should be presented to the American people. First, to clear Kavanaugh’s good name, from this day forward. Second, to reinforce that everyone is innocent until proven guilty, and false accusers should be punished. Third, to bolster the chances of a red, not blue, wave in November.
Dr Ford, the Fraud, said: "Indelible in the hippocampus is the laughter. The uproarious laughter between the two, and their having fun at my expense.”
Good tactical speech, IMO.
Yes. Always move the bar. Always move the needle. Don’t be afraid of the truth.
I seem to remember reading somewhere that, after the FBI turned over it report of the allegation to the Senate, it sent a follow-up report to the WH.
Could that have contained information on irregularities and possible crimes, of the parties making the allegation, uncovered during their interviews?
