(32 posts)A fight is what Trump and the GOP want, it will energize their base so that they will come out and vote. This is nothing more than a game to them, a sport, where all you want is your team to win. Look at the polls, before the fight over the judge only 60% of Republicans were interested in the mid-terms and after the fight 80%. A twenty point increase. For us, it is not a sport, it is about our lives. We do not need the excitement of the fight to energize us, we have been at a max energy level for a long time. Before the fight over the judge, 80% of Democrats were interested in the mid-terms,and after the fight 82%. A 2 point gain which is in the margin of error.
We should not PUBLICLY fight or call names. If we do not give them energy, us against them, their base will lose interest. There will be no excitement, no sport. If they bait us, and they will, we have only one response, what do Trump's wife and daughter think about this? We quietly organize person to person, we will get out the vote, while the Republicans lose interest, get bored, and stay home.

(32 posts)But a civil and non-confrontational presentation of our view. They want to say we are a mob, so we can not act like one.

(32,680 posts)It probably won't happened right away, they'll wait til things cool down and nobody's looking.
I'm sure there are reports that could have hung Kavanaugh out to dry, but we never got to see them.

I just found an excellent article detailing his issues, but for some reason, the link Im posting wont work -
- BUT, if you google Greg Olear Medium, it will lead you to his latest article, Supreme Discrepancies: Kavanaughs Financial Disclosure Reports Conflict With His Senate Testimony
and all the info is right there in one tidy write-up
FakeNoose
(32,680 posts)I'll look for the info.
I was talking more about what's on the "secret" FBI report. Why the hell is that such a secret anyway?
That's what I'm hoping will get leaked, maybe next year?

We need to start acting like it, and not be afraid to get our hands dirty.

(43,236 posts)Two heists and a perjurer don't make real Americans very happy. That's a stolen election, and a stolen Court seat. The rest is self-evident.

(15,242 posts)Kavanaugh is a liar, drunk, gambler and decidedly a sexual predator. He is begging for a reckoning.

(937 posts)In a divided decision, 5-4, the Supreme Court has redefined sexual assault. From now on, in the case of rich, white, prep school boys, there is no such behavior as sexual assault. From this day forward it is innocent horseplay.
