is somehow worse than actually being the victim who as sexually assaulted.
Kavanaugh says that those mean Dems have destroyed his good name... and that's worse than what he is accused of doing to Dr. Ford and the othe women who have named him as their attacker and rapist.
Kavanaugh and all his Republican BFFs on the Judicial Committee, are tearfully moaning that he may never be able to coach girls basketball again. Like that is somehow worse that Dr Fords PTSD and her fears of being trapped that are so terrible she needs to exit doors to feel safe in her own home.
Kavanaugh perspective on the matter is as skewed as his judicial ruling will be.

(52,243 posts)he's committed perjury several times
he's a hyper-partisan operator
he's got no judicial temperament whatsoever
he sees conspiracies where none exists
he gives us every reason to believe he'd use the bench to exact personal revenge for imagined offenses
he can't apologize or even show an ounce of empathy for anyone
he's likely an alcoholic in denial
he apparently has a gambling problem
his views are *way* more right-wing than even the insanely right-wing people already on the court
he thinks the president has the right to commit federal crimes free from even basic investigation as long as he can remain in office -- giving him license even to commit kidnapping and murder on federal land and even election crimes to stay in office -- provided he's willing to pay the price after his terms expire. and donnie's life expectancy is only another 8 years, so what does he care....
horribly unfit *even if he's completely innocent of the sex crimes*
and holy sh*t, what job interview isn't over the minute you're accused of multiple sex crimes????
