Jimmy Carter: Kavanaugh is 'unfit' to be a Supreme Court justice

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Former President Jimmy Carter harshly criticized newly appointed Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, calling him "unfit" to serve on the court.

Speaking to a class at Emory University in Atlanta on Wednesday, Carter said that Kavanaugh's behavior during his confirmation hearings demonstrated that his appointment was "a very serious mistake," according to Emory's independent, student-run newspaper, The Emory Wheel.

"Whether or not [Kavanaugh] attempted to rape [Christine Blasey Ford], I thought he was temperamentally unfit to serve on the Supreme Court because of his outburst during the hearing," Carter said, according to video taken by a student during his remarks. "I saw him lose his cool."

Kavanaugh's confirmation process was derailed after Ford, a California professor, accused him of sexually assaulting her at a high school party in the 1980s.

After testimony from both Ford and Kavanaugh, the Senate ultimately voted to confirm President Trump's second Supreme Court nominee.

Carter is just one of a number of political leaders to take issue with Kavanaugh's testimony on the allegations, which critics said was "non-judicial" and "partisan."

1. Kavanaugh is unfit to be left alone with his own daughters

Yes, I said it.

2. I agree... Frankly after all that was said, for Child Protective Services to not even do welfare

check is, to me, a dereliction of their responsibilities. The average family would be investigated on far less evidence if someone merely called them.

5. And those were Kavanaugh's PREPARED remarks.

In other words, he know’s he’s an unfit partisan hack, he just doesn’t care. Revenge is all that matters.

I totally admire and respect President Carter and his opinions. Neither Kavanaugh or DJT will resign and both are totally unfit for the office they find themselves in!!!

when you are correct, you are correct.
