Trump says it is ‘very hard for me to imagine anything happened’ between Kavanaugh and his sexual assault accuser

By Washington Post Staff
September 19 at 9:55 AM

President Trump praised Brett M. Kavanaugh, his Supreme Court nominee, while leaving the White House en route to the Carolinas, but said Christine Blasey Ford deserves to be heard about her claim that she was sexually assaulted while both were teenagers.

“If she shows up and makes a credible showing, that will be very interesting and we’ll have to make a decision,” Trump said.

This is a developing story. It will be updated.

in his back pocket...a conservative woman. If Ford testifies and is not an idiot, which she certainly isn't, Kavanaugh will be toast. In fact, if Ford agrees to come to Washington, the White House and the 11 repub Senators might not want to even risk a hearing.

I doubt he will now decide to dump Kavanaugh or at least not publicly as Kavanaugh is every Trump supporting Repugnants wet dream rolled up in a ball of slime.
No, what's likely is he will ask Kavanaugh to announce his withdrawal as Kavanaughs own decision with the promise to make it up to him somehow.

He has stuck his and dragged his dick through every swamp, sewer and cesspool on planet Earth so he knows in which he speaks. The utmost authority on sexual misconduct and inappropriate sexual behavior is he, the gold standard by far.

Didn't Trump once claim that you can grab a woman's private parts and get a way with it? But, he could not imagine what Kavanaugh is accused of doing. Think about that one for a while.

He is in a constant state of collapse that will destroy himself and as many others as he can wreck with malice. He is without any peers but appears to have accomplices in his theater audience. By the mere fact he demands attention that too empowers his many delusions, however we ignore this monster at our own peril.

tRump is the last person in the world that should be making statement like this, "very hard for me to imagine anything happened’ between Kavanaugh and his sexual assault accuser " Who could possibly believe a self described sexual assaulter? You remember this quote made by him, “Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything.”

Because no one has ever dared face them to tell them "no".
