Grassley has caved, what, 3 times now?
No difference this time.
(I am not optimistic. I believe Pres. Trump will be forced to withdraw Kavanaugh’s name)
Sadly, you are correct. The GOPe Senate majority is hollow and once the Flakes and Collinses privately tell the WH they will vote “No”, he’ll have no choice but to withdraw Kavanaugh’s name.
Trump WILL NOT withdraw Kavanaughs name HE is a FIGHTER and HE WILL NOT let this mans reputation be destroyed by these BASTARD MARXISTS!!!! I can tell you I just want to SCREAM right now!!! The feeling of helplessness for this man and his family, it is just DISGUSTING that these RAT BASTARDS honestly have no conscious when DESTROYING a person who has honestly lived a good, clean and Christian life!!! These Republicans thatvhave let this happen to this man ARE JUST AS GUILTY, but I would think they would have more of a conscious!!!!
Grassley hasn’t caved at all. He has postponed the committee vote because he knew these additional allegations would come out right before the vote was held anyway. He had to wait until these were out in the open because they’d be far more effective if they hit the news right before a vote.
What does he do -- go on living in a leafy Beltway suburb and stay on the D.C. Court of Appeals? Nope -- that ain't going to happen. These allegations are outlandish enough -- and so public -- that his career is over UNLESS he is confirmed.
That's been the plan of the GOP all along. This way it will look like President Trump's defeat, not a defeat of the Republican party. Remember, the GOP was more than happy to sell the "R" brand to DJT during the primaries....never thinking he could win the nomination. After he did, the GOP neither wanted nor expected him to win the Presidency and since he's been in office they've continued to do anything they could to thwart his agenda.
The GOP is as much the cause of this horror show as the RATS!
Trump is toast if he withdraws Kavanaugh’s name.
This is simply a battle that is too important to lose.
