President Donald Trump said that there’s a chance Christine Blasey Ford could prompt him to end his support for Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

“It’s possible I’ll hear that and I’ll say, ‘Hey, I’m changing my mind.’ That is possible,” Trump said, referring to Blasey Ford’s expected testimony at a Senate hearing on Thursday. “I could be persuaded.”

While answering the question, Trump repeatedly suggested that the public would hear from several women, even though only one accuser is scheduled to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday.

“We want to give them a chance to speak,” Trump said, prompting a reporter to ask if all three women who have made allegations should testify.

“Well, whoever is given a chance, we’ve delayed it a long time. But they’re going to have a big shot,” he replied.

1. He's a lying pos. He also said all 3 women were lying. Which is it?

5. Someone in PR realized how awful these blood suckers coming across and slapped them

The new line is to say is "we want to hear what the women have to say". But we all know they don't really care.

2. "A big shot"?

What a dope. This isn't glamorous.

[Fred Sanders]

3. So...no more "we will plow right through this"? Have the Twitter posts about the opposite from

days ago and yesterday been deleted??

[RockRaven]

7. The Lying King is at it again,

He said this to con people into believing he hasn't demanded gop Senators hurry up and install his get out of jail free card and serial sexual predator kavanaugh for him no matter what is said Thursday , and to rush it through ASAP . It won't work as many other GOP Senators can't vote for him knowing what they know about him now. If he is voted onto the bench even better for Democrats as a lot more damming evidence is brought out exposing a lot more things and issues about kavanaugh, and he will be FBI investigated anyway , and hurt them even more. He'll be removed from his position one way or another he'll lose and be removed, and a rally cry for Democrats to get out and vote against trump and the gop. The American people are pissed at what they're doing and it will incite many many more people to come out to vote against these criminals. trumps con job statement about its the Democrats is another example how he always accuses others of his actions. The gop are already looking at dumping kavanaugh. We'll start hearing it very , very soon as more are looking at voting against his being a justice on the highest court any longer. Its falling apart for kavanaugh already, and he's done . A vote now will show voters their representatives position , and incite even more to vote , and vote against them. Close races will be lost if they hold a vote soon on kavanaugh, and make close races trending all towards the Democrats retaking BOTH houses of Congress back , and the biggest turnover ever in a Mid term Congressional . The gop are helping us incite voters to vote them out of office more every day with their actions.

8. Is this a hint that they've decided to cut Kavanaugh loose and get another candidate before it's

too late?
