DO NOT forget (or are mistaken) who did it... what Collins said is vile and mean spirited (or she is remarkably ignorant)

years later after the fact extremely difficult which is why we need better support for the victims to encourage them to come forward as soon as it happens rather than later.
As for Collins I agree with BigmanPigman in that she had already made up her mind to vote yes the day he was nominated.

She just wanted the harassment to stop and give her a break for a week. If she believed Ford was assualted by Kavanaugh for a minute she would have said NO right away and stuck with it. She scammed people for a week. TRAITOR
