It Is More Than About Kavanaugh's Twisted Sex Life. IT IS About His Twisted/Deranged Legal Views

More than anything the issues with nominee is more than about his sadistic cruel and hateful treatment of women. His legal views are deranged and twisted as well. He is unqualified for even the judgeship he has now.

He has hidden his true and sick views on various points of law. And he is there because the GOP needs him to cover for Trump and the criminal GOP who is up to its neck with the Russians.

Maybe he did actually rape someone in the past. You never know. With his kind of attitude as an abuser that behavior is really possible.

Our opinion on Kavanaugh is not based on his positions on issues such as abortion rights, gun rights and voting rights. A Republican president would be expected to nominate someone aligned with his values, and, for the most part, Kavanaugh is fairly typical of judges who could pass muster with the Federalist Society, to whom President Donald Trump delegated the initial cull.

But there is something different about this nominee. Alone among the more than two dozen names Trump considered, Kavanaugh has endorsed a singularly expansive view of executive power, even stating in a paper and speech that the president should be immune from criminal investigation or prosecutorial questions while in office.

Given the ongoing investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller, Kavanaugh had a responsibility to fully air his thinking. Instead, he evaded, suggesting during hearings that his 2009 Minnesota Law Review article was simply a call for Congress to pass a law shielding presidents from legal inquiries.

That paper, however, also contains this telling footnote in which Kavanaugh himself raised the issue of constitutionality: “Even in the absence of congressionally conferred immunity,” he wrote, “a serious constitutional question exists regarding whether a president can be criminally indicted and tried while in office.” (“Separation of Powers During the Forty-Fourth presidency and Beyond,” pg. 8, footnote 31.)
