If your point is that Democrats are by and large unhinged and cannot civilly object to Kavanaugh's nomination for reasons that may be very valid to THEM..... then I guess we'll just agree to disagree.
Yes, there's a lot of hysteria out there against anything Trump. Promptly met by an equally hysterical pro-Trump base which is just as capable of unthinkable things and thoughts, just like the unhinged Democrats.
All I'm saying is that as it stands right now....Democrats and Lefties are the most upset and they're acting out like a child being denied a candy bar from the store it's meltdowns and temper tantrums and overall really bratty childlike behavior on a large scale. It's gassed up by certain folks, the media and Soros....but yeah Republicans get upset when they lose elections too, but they rarely ever hold mass protests and they certainly don't attack the children of their opponents in attempts to blackmail them for voting against their constituents.
Both sides have crazy folks, but only one side is playing to the extreme and it ain't the Right

Maybe there's a reason I'm not aware of, and I mean that sincerely. If so, please tell me.
Why not start with the very first candidate? I mean, if we're going to make life impossible for Trump, let's start from the very beginning.
I know we're all pretty tired of these sexual accusations that are suddenly raining down on us from all sides.... all fields (celebrities, politicians, businessmen, etc). I know it's difficult to separate the real from the fabricated in cases like this.
But again I ask.... why now and why Kavanaugh?
Does this mean anybody Trump were to trot out there would meet with the same circus?
I'd like to think not.
I'd still appreciate these questions answered. Walrus said something about the midterms, but to me it doesn't explain why the Unhinged Democrats didn't start the fireworks with Trump's very first Supreme Court nomination.
It's an honest question. Is it something about Kavanaugh himself, that would drive the Unhinged Democrat machinery's gears turning and churning out all these drummed up charges and fake witnesses?
Were the Democrats asleep for Gorsuch?
Gorsuch was replacing Scalia so it was seen as a like for like swap, they didn't like that but it wasn't going to change much. Kavanaugh replacing Kennedy is seen as someone who is more of a traditionalist than someone who is wishy washy and blew with the political winds...THAT is why there's so much trouble and if you think it's bad now wait until RBG kicks the bucket, whew boy, batten down the hatches because that'll be a right shitshow if it's a Republican President that replaces her.
The Democrats are extremely fearful of losing ground in the SCOTUS so much so that Kirkland Laing has suggested they pack the courts next time they attain power "At some point they''re going to have to increase thenumber of SCOTUS justices to eleven or more so Kavanaugh will give them a graphic illustration of why they have to do it." ....5-4 with Kennedy as the swing vote was not comfortable for them, but it was enough to give them hope on certain issues....not anymore.
Why not start with the first candidate? Well I don't think #1 the Democrats thought Trump would stay in power for long as they sought to overturn the entire election and #2 again it was a like for like swap, they didn't expect Kennedy to retire as he did...that REALLY made them freak out.
Why now why Kavanaugh? It's a Hail Mary play man it's why they sat on the material they have had since July.
Pretty much anyone Trump places out there Democrats will immediately oppose I guess he
COULD have attempted to "make peace" and nominated Merrick Garland, but let's be honest that's not why Trump was elected. Trump was elected to choose the Justices he said he'd choose, originalists not progressives.
The first nomination, maybe they were in denial, maybe they thought they'd oust Trump before he got a second one, maybe they figured it was a like for like swap and they were keeping their powder dry for when they needed it, I don't know what they were thinking, but they fucked up big time and let me tell you this whole Kavanaugh deal has the Republican base red hot to vote and that ain't good for Democrats not at all....I mean I guess we'll see with the mid terms how this all plays out. I don't think it'll be a clean sweep for the Republicans, but I know it won't be a clean sweep for the Dems.
Let me know if I didn't answer all your questions, those were good ones and i hope my answers are sufficient
