The senators shouldn’t get upset since it only is a harmless drinking game. It they do get upset due to the sexual innuendo, then they are admitting that Kav lied.

The drunken gambler who rapes and throws his penis in people's faces then lies about it. A molester never changes unless he's forced to.

The whole purpose of screening Supremes is so they don't have to be impeached later. But not so much since congress has been turned into a tool of Russia. So get ready to force Dems to impeach this molester.
