Trump says GOP smearing assault victim shows how 'respectful' they are
By Kaili Joy Gray - September 26, 2018
This is not what respect looks like.
The Republican Party has been waging a despicable smear campaign against Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, the woman who says Brett Kavanaugh tried to rape her when they were in high school.
But to Trump, the ugly attacks on Ford are a great sign of respect. Not that Trump — who has admitted to sexually assaulting women and even suggested “Second Amendment people” could stop Hillary Clinton from making judicial appointments if she became president — has any idea what respect for women looks like.
“I think the Senate Republicans couldn’t be nicer in the way they’re handling this,” Trump told reporters Wednesday. “They could have pushed it through two and a half weeks ago and you would not be talking about it now, which is frankly what I would have preferred.”
That, unsurprisingly, contradicts what Trump has been claiming since Ford went public with her very credible allegation against Kavanaugh. He, like Senate Republicans, have said they want Ford to have the opportunity to tell her story.

Republicans have handled the entire matter with a grotesque lack of respect.
They have made it perfectly clear that they do not take sexual assault seriously. Several Republicans in Congress — including Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch, a member of the Judiciary Committee — have said that even if the allegations are true, they don’t care. They are OK with putting an attempted rapist on the Supreme Court.
There is nothing respectful — to the women who say Kavanaugh assaulted them, certainly, or to all of the women in this country who have survived sexual assault — about that.
