>>And there is likely some guy from the 1880s that would say “That’s something to cry about”?

You arent impressing anyone here with this. It isnt a contest.

Over my lifetime, but particularly in the last 25 years, politics have become a contest, where everybody must pick a side and there must always be winners and losers, with little compromise allowed, because ties don't count. Look at FR over the past 15 years - used to be a lot of robust discussions. Now there is far too much "I don't agree with you, so I'm going to call you names or cuss at you!"

I'll ask you both this question I asked somebody else: If Mitch had decided to let Merrick Garland go through the confirmation process, and a bunch of women popped up with made-up accusations at the last minute, and Merrick came out crying and choking up, would you talk about how Merrick is a brave man, and how we should all shed a few tears with him?

Or would you say that Merrick is just another liberal snowflake who needs a safe space?

Draining the swamp is not easy, and this could very well be the last chance we have to do so. A bunch of women making stuff up should be the least of our worries.

Sorry if I missed your earlier post. I also mean no disrespect I was only stating my opinion on times men cry. I’m a very sensitive woman so perhaps I have a different view.

As for your hypothetical question I’m not quite sure I understand your premise. Without it having happened how can one answer honestly. I may be missing your point. I don’t happen to think a man crying is a sign of weakness.

I do believe living a hell for the past 10 days, having your life’s work and life destroyed in addition to being charged with crimes that could send you to prison for life warrant at least a few angry tears.
