(50,949 posts)investigated for doing so. He'll be saying that he knew all along that Kavanaugh was wrong, and if only people would listen to him and not Obama, who proposed Kavanaugh, none of this would happen.

(5,812 posts)Trump would have no problem with the dirt on Kavanaugh IF it were kept hidden. But once it startes to come out, Trump is going to act like it is and was a total surprise to him and NOW he (Trump) is going to do the right thing and withdraw the nomination of Kavanaugh.
Games, total lying, bullshit games.

(34,069 posts)Even though Kavanaugh adopted Trump's bravado, his non-response to questions, etc., Kavanaugh could not control his emotions (rage, near tears) in public.
We know Trump rages - but not in public. I'm sure he would see it as a sign of weakness.
When Trump says to 'push back,' he just means 'deny!'
He would HATE that Kavanaugh lost control

(11,256 posts)I've never understood why they've dug in so hard over Kavanaugh. I know that time is running out before the midterms, but after yesterday I'm not sure McConnell or Grassley would care about the optics of ramming it through during the lame duck session.

(12,652 posts)They're all against RvW, or all against restrictions on free trade, but for the most part, they aren't for an imperial presidency. Kavanagh would give Trump and GOP politicians a free pass on Russia money, Conspiracy, Money Laundering, and other outright crimes he may have committed or endorsed.
Those other judges might not.
So that's why they were pushing so hard for Kavanagh. He's a get out of jail free card on the Supreme Court.
