The GOP seems to concede that she was credible and that her allegations are not just allegations but “credible allegations,” that she sincerely believes them.
I don’t think her allegations are credible.
She made it up. Perhaps something happened to her that she is exaggerating. But the idea that she sincerely believes the story she is telling is and has been too easily conceded.
Her “memory” includes just enough details to make her allegation sound plausible. To put her in contact with Kavanaugh, she needs some reason — a small gathering. It wouldn’t be plausible to come up with a scenario that puts her in bed with Kavanaugh alone when she barely knew the guy. So she included a small group of kids that hung out together.
If you are making something up, it is better to include fewer people and details because you’ll have to keep those straight each time you tell the story.
Male Senate GOP members will never go after another female "victim" without concrete and verified evidence. Even then they will think twice after re-reading the 19th Amendment. Sadly, the "mean old men are hurting the poor widdle defenseless woman" talking point works well for the 'rats. That's why they were "outraged" when the format of the hearing was announced with no GOP males asking Ford questions.
But yes, there are far too many big gaps in her testimony and there is no collaboration. None of her described witnesses have supported here accusations. In fact all denied any knowledge of them. Did not remember them at all. Even her own long term friends.
