compared to the rest that is

Because they had an opportunity to turn the political tables and give themselves more strength for a 2020 run

You already forgot Kavenaugh?

there was no option there

they had to oppose him because they risk the court being stack against htem

But not with bullshit rape allegations!

There was no other way

SRYSLY?!

Of course there was!

They could use actual ARGUMENTS

and look at his Rulings

they needed a scandal to delay until hopefully the November vote rolled around and they could get enough votes to block him

not gonna work against a party that spent 8 years in the dog house

what they needed were senators and reps to defect and no one was going to do that so they could appear to be siding with the democrats

So they created a scandal by withholding the allegations and turning it into a circus with two goals - delay the vote and swing public opinion against kav

They had marginal success with the latter and no success with the former

Sorry, are you for real?!

kav's outrageous reaction hurt him more than it helped

how can you defend that shit show and ruining a persons fucking life?!

oh no im not defending it

just saying that if they wanted to do something to accomplish their goals they had no other options

If they argued about his rulings, they could have prevented him because there were some that were pretty bad.

but with the shit they pulled, they forced all the Reps in line.

Even Rand Paul!

If they didn't do that shit, Rand might have voted against Kav and also others.

Wouldve swayed 0 republicans

but at that time it was a vote against/for due process

they all know whats at stake

Well, looks like Trump has a 3rd person to nominate.

and possibly a 4th person

exaclty

this is the one issue that republicans are united on

Whoever trump nominates will get their vote

"kav's outrageous reaction"

and what reaction was that

his screaming session

Because I watched his testimony and I would expect someone to respond that way to being called a serial gang rapist on the news.

screaming

What is wrong with you?

thats what other people see it as

People that are lying.
