Kavanaugh & Lindsey Graham were "hysterical" today. [View all]

Kavanaugh, unlike all other nominees before him, treated the process w/disdain, acted arrogantly that his character should even be questioned, denigrated the Democratic Senators (even stating that the charges were the hack job as payback for the Clintons - bizarre). He did not act like a public servant, or someone who believes in the governmental process. That's a bad sign. In other words, he sounds like Trump! He was hysterical, with his over-anger, then his over-sobbing. He constantly interrupted the questions, would repeatedly try to get away with not answering questions by sliding in a non-answer (making a statement on the topic but not answering the question). He's just smarmey & arrogant. NOT someone who should be on the Supreme Court.

Graham was just "hysterical," like Kavanaugh. Using the word "hysterical" because one of hte Republican senators referred to the female protesters that way recently, and because if Kavanaugh were female, that's what they'd be saying about the nominee now.

I think other posters are right that Graham is auditioning for replacing Sessions as Attorney General.
