There was no effort to cross examine her - ask if she was using medications, had suffered false memories, was she ever victimized by any family members, etc.
Because she had lawyers ready to jump and cut off those questions. Any that they would let her answer were rehearsed. It was all for show on both side. Republicans to look gentle and reasonable. Dems to paint their witness as 100% certain and victim-like. Nothing more and nothing less than that. That show worked, as expected, on party lines. The next show is an investigation that could also delve into her medications, mental state, etc but it won't.
Because they ran out of time. She only got 5min then a dem got 5min, then back and forth. This was so stupid. The prosecutor should have had most of the time to interview her- then the last half hour to the dems. It gave Ford a break-dems did nothing but tell her how brave she was, her courage, blah blah, then back to prosecutor.
I was just blown away that Kav did not have his lawyer with him. That was not wise. The lawyer could have stopped the badgering. Told him to say asked and answered.
And why did the Judge pick a former Hillary lawyer who defended Cheryl mills and 3 other state dept people in the email server situation?
Will the FBI question Ford also as a part of their investigation? I sure hope so.
