In any other point in history, this female accusation tactic would have worked. It’s didn’t work because:
1. Trump and the GOP stuck to their guns.
2. Conservative social media (FR, reddit, Twitter) enabled a contradictory story to spread.
3. Kavanaugh strongly defended himself.
4. The one-week long FBI investigation put the threat of the Law on everyone involved and proved the evidence was zilch.
5. The internet makes it much easier than ever before to conduct research and fact-check even the most minute details of an allegation like this.
