I hope he wasn't jerking me around. He seemed to be sincerely troubled and even said something along the lines of moving forward regardless of how the Senate might vote.

We made it through "W." We'll get through Teflon Don too, especially after the House tears into him.

starting a war based on fake premises though sowed the seeds for today. When will we stand up to what is wrong?

Maybe by seeing so much posted here it is clearer? We just seem less naive about falling for their actions. As we speak, Schiff on MoJoe seemingly surprised that the FBI didn't investigate Kavenaugh accusers adequately. Many of us here knew that moment when they offered only a week that the die was cast. Yet they didn't even call that ridiculously inadequate at the time.

I remember Phil Mudd saying it wasn't enough time when it happened. Yet later in the day, he praised the FBI and said they will put tons of resources on it and their work ethic was so strong they would rise to the occasion. He said he knew what would happen. The FBI agents would put Blasey Ford in a car and drive her through all those neighborhoods until she got a glimmer of recognition of something...where the attack took place. Unfortunately, none of that happened.

Polls are already showing most people don't trust him and know he's a pathological liar. And we still remember the last war we were lied into. There's some war-skepticism from that too.

If they can move oil prices enough, maybe, but I think Americans are going to be skeptical AF of another war from the guy who screamed about dumb wars.

would cancel the election. Remind me again what happened?

And as someone else has already pointed out, elections were not canceled during the Civil War. So get over yourself.
