In reply to the discussion: Right wingers claiming a Kavanaugh defeat will rile up the right flank. [View all]Andy823
(11,495 posts)I read where they said "getting" Kavanaugh confirmed and in the court by the 1st of October would "rally" the base and get them out come election.
I also heard several right wingers on TV today saying the FBI investigation was good, and that they, the republicans on the committee, were "holding" back on that as a bargaining ploy, something they would use to help them if needed. They also said that's why Kavanaugh was keeping that FBI thing in his "quiver" to pull out when needed. Funny how the republicans who were so confident they could ram him through would need to hold and FBI investigation, something they, and trump said could NOT be done, wasn't needed, a waste of time according to Kavanaugh because he already had 6 prior probes, would be holding a probe back because they were going to us it at the last minute!
No matter what happens, trump and the republicans won't admit defeat, they will lie and make up crap to try and make it look like they have everything under control, when in reality the only think they do is make new rules, lie, like, lie, and take credit for things they didn't do while blaming others for the mistakes they make. Remember what trump said about not believing what you see, just believe what he is telling you. Sadly that works with his small base, but not with the rest of the country.
