Official Brett Kavanaugh confirmation thread

Ah, the guy without a name. Sure. Same as the two trumpet clowns who each confessed to being the "one" (they did not know each other) who attacked Ford in 1983. Also, no names.

Wow. I'm only 40+ pages behind on this thread.

I said previously the most direct places of Kavanaugh's testimony that bugged me where he possibly lied were his descriptions of Devil's Triangle and Boofing. Now his classmates have backed up his claim that Devil's Triangle was a drinking game.

Need to get caught up on this thread.

You missed the proceeding paragraph.

Some, including Kavanaugh's former college roommate, have disputed Kavanaugh's claims about phrases like "devil's triangle." Both a former football team manager and a man who overlapped with Kavanaugh at Georgetown Prep told The New York Times that they did not accept Kavanaugh's account either.

I love this line from the linked article: To paraphrase Abraham Lincoln after being told Ulysses S. Grant was a drunk, let's find out what Kavanaugh drank and send a barrel of it to every college student.

Lol devastating, especially to Creepy Porn Lawyer

It is a fake quote that was paraphrased. Did you post that as "Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier or Grant's tomb"?

His high school classmates are the ones who invented the game. His college classmates or people outside his friend circle obviously wouldn't know what it is. The fact that his friend's yearbook page claims to be the inventor of the game proves it beyond reasonable doubt, because that comment wouldn't make any sense if they were talking about a sex act.

And you don’t get that this could be a big tell that Republicans have enough yes votes that they don’t need Daines there on Saturday.

That is what is called a procedural vote. It is not the same a a confirmation vote, which can only proceed if McConnell decides ask for a vote while he is short of people. It would 50 Repubs and 49 Dems voting. One Repub switch permanently kills the nomination--50 no to 49 yes. There is no tie for Pence to break. Got it?

The whole article was hilarious, not just the Lincoln part

Wrong. They made that up AFTER Kavanaugh invented it during testimony. Do try to keep up. It is two guys plus one drunk and drugged female.

Actually, they don't. McConnell will sit on the vote until he has 51 Republicans on the floor to cast votes.

Mainline protestant group calls for ‘immediate’ end to Brett Kavanaugh nomination

The National Council of Churches (NCC) calls for the withdrawal of the nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court of the United States.

How does that work?

Do Heitkamp and Manchin vote last after seeing everyone else’s vote?

Yes, that's how this kind of thing normally works. If Heitkamp and Manchin are the least bit fuzzy on how Flake, Collins, and Murkowski are going to go then they will wait to see how they vote. But that's only if they plan to vote, "yes". If Heitkamp and Manchin have made up their minds to vote "no" then they don't need to wait.

Well it looks like Heitkamp didn’t need to wait since she’s a no.

Which means if two Republicans vote no, a Heitkamp yes would have confirmed Kavanaugh.

And N. Dakota May have liked that.

And if Kavanaugh is confirmed, Heitkamp’s no may be in vain and cost her the election.

Anyone who thinks this is not a done deal needs to prepare their safe space.

Right. This guy mentioned in his yearbook comments that he was the inventor of the name Devil’s Triangle in on the off chance 30+ years later Brett Kavanaugh was nominated to the Supreme Court and was asked about during a Senate hearing.

You need to crawl into your safe place. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) has spent her day meeting with women who have been sexually assaulted. Mark her vote as a NO.

Just abolish the Democratic party at the same time.

Nope, abolish the Trumpettes. There are few of them. They are easily crushed and destroyed. You are outnumber by a long shot, AND you live in the vast emptiness of red dirt.

I am going to go out on a limb here and guess that you meant "outnumbered". So, let's count how many ways you were wrong.

1) I am certainly not outnumbered.

2) I am not a Trumpette

3) I am not a Republican

4) I live in the center of Silicon Valley (not exactly a "vast emptiness of red dirt).

5) The Democratic party (and all political parties) should be abolished (just as George Washington warned).

Wow, that's pretty impressive - more errors than sentences in your post.

Good job!

The term existed before that. Claiming he invented it is nothing more than, "What happens at Georgetown Prep, stays at Georgetown Prep." Your source is unreliable--some rando on twitter.

Congrats, your post was almost coherent.
