If yesterday's hearing confirmed one thing, it's that Brett Kavanaugh is a serial liar about even the most casual, trivial matters.

There is a peculiar moral ugliness to this type of routinized, low-level lying:https://t.co/KoSQihrlge pic.twitter.com/fZUqJNwOeo
You can add to that list a Dropout Grifter Governor who claimed his bald spot was due to hitting his head on a file cabinet, and who posts stock photos of food on social media to try to convince people he's "just like us."
When they lie about little things, you should be insulted, and realize they will hurt people on much bigger things.
The day after Donald Trump won the Presidency in 2016, I said to my crying wife, “There’s a silver lining to this. Just one, but it’s a big one. The backlash over Trump may finally rid us of Scott Walker.”
ReplyDeleteFast forward to 2018. Now I say, “Go ahead, Republicans. Confirm that despicable pile of garbage Kavanaugh, just weeks before the election. It just may be the final nail in the coffin for Walker.”
I find it hard to believe that any Independent voter in this state who may still be on the fence about who to vote for won’t be tipped toward Evers after this appalling display by Senate Republicans. We will see soon enough.
You'd hope so. If not, this state and this country won't be worth saving.
DeleteIf Kav does slide his way onto SCOTUS, Evers should be hammering the fact that he is the only Guv candidate that will end gerrymandering, protect reproductive rights, protect people with pre-existing conditions and enforce environmental protections.
Because all that will go down to the states under Kavanaugh and other right-wingers on SCOTUS. SAY THIS, DEMS!
Yes, in the end most people will not vote for Evers simply because he isn’t Walker. Like you said, Evers needs to take advantage of the situation to stress that he is BETTER than this. Go, Tony, go!!
Delete"Casual lying about trivial things"? The republican party seems based on consistently lying about big things. Tax-cuts for corporation will yield big pay raises for workers, We support coverage of pre-existing conditions, Iraq has WMDs, the list goes on and on...….Is it any wonder children of the oligarchs are groomed to continue the redistribution of wealth.
