Ford's Husband: She Wanted to Flee the Country Out of Fear of a Kavanaugh Confirmation
Townhall ^ | September 24, 2018 | Beth Baumann

After Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy resigned at the end of July, names of potential replacements swarmed the American political scene. One of the names was Brett Kavanaugh, who would eventually become President Donald Trump's pick. Around that time, Dr. Christine Blasey Ford began to freak out, The Washington Post reported.

“She was like, ‘I can’t deal with this. If he becomes the nominee, then I’m moving to another country. I cannot live in this country if he’s in the Supreme Court,’” Russell Ford, the husband of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, told WaPo. “She wanted out.”

According to Russell, his wife began to search other Democratic countries that his family could relocate to. Apparently living in California, more than 3,000 miles away from the location of the alleged attack, wasn't far enough for Kavanaugh's accuser. One of the countries Ford had her mind set on was New Zealand.

Although she kept the alleged attack a secret for more than 30 years, Ford reportedly talked about what occurred once during a therapy session and once with her husband.

When Ford was named as Kavanaugh's first accuser, her husband was driving their 15-year-old son and some of his friends home from a soccer tournament. Russell's phone continued to ring and reporters were camped outside of the Ford family home by the time they pulled in. It was at that point that Russell struggled to explain to his son what was happening....

There are people who have survived horrendous trauma who have put it back together and moved on. Including myself. She seems to be milking this for dramatic value.

I thought Ford relocated because of threats. Very interesting to hear the truth. Ford’s going to fail spectacularly if she appears to speak to the Senate. She hasn’t even successfully coached her husband to tell the “correct” story.

So far, it is just defamation. When she steps into the hearing, it will become perjury. She will never show up.

I was 15 and hanging at this bar with friends (yes this was not a good town to grow up in) and I had rebuffed this guy’s advances. The next day he drove his bike onto the sidewalk where I was leaning into a car window talking to someone. I jumped out of the way. What a creeper.

Canada is too close, they can walk back. I’d be happier with Nigeria, Venezuela, Kenya or Indonesia.
