How was kavanaught's family destroyed?

Kavanaugh said several times that this process and the accusations were destroying or had destroyed his family.

Why? Does his wife not believe him? Did she feel sympathy for Ford?

I thought he was trying to stress that his family was all there, being supportive of him. I really don't understand why he said that, other than for sympathy.

His family did not have to move. His family did not have to worry about the safety of their children. Fuck you Kavanaugh.

Even supposing for a second he’s “innocent,” he’s still a deplorable white wing operative. I doubt seriously he’s innocent.

Trump said that it was destroying his "beautiful family". It's a narcissist's ploy for sympathy.

It works on ding dongs like my relatives.
