They see that as evidence that he has the votes.

… that the vast majority of that “base” have no idea what a Supreme Court justice is, or does – nor are they the least bit interested.

All they know is that if Kavanaugh gets in, it means a point for their team. If he doesn’t, it’s a point for ours.

Trump has turned our democracy into a sports event.

... most of them would say that if Kavanaugh gets on the Supreme Court, he will overturn Roe v Wade the next day.

That's what they're gleaning from this circus. They have no idea he can't do that - again, they have no idea what a Supreme Court justice is, or does.

They are now within a few points of Dems when measuring enthusiasm for the mid terms.

MSNBC reported the numbers again tonight.

Kavanaugh has the lowest numbers of any SC nominee in history. His approval numbers are worse than Bork’s.

Trump lives in the madness inside his head. He thinks it therefore it is. He belongs in a mental institution.

MSNBC had new polling. Interesting that the numbers for Kav are exactly parallel to Trump and that means it's the base and only the base -- no establishment Republicans are affected. Evidently.
