Looks like the #MAGits are going to Kavanaugh the Senate trial

Before Republicans could Ram through Kavanaugh they had to put on a sham FBI investigation in order to please the slightly less insane Republicans.


That gave the Republicans cover to say that they supported a thorough background check before he got on the bench when that check was anything but.


Now it looks like the White House and McConnell are going to do the same thing with this trial. Deny the witnesses and evidence but still put up a sham vote to give one or two vulnerable Republicans a chance to vote for Witnesses to cover their asses.


Why not put on a phony partisan biased outcome already determined trial and do it quick as possible and be bold about it and do it in broad daylight in front of the entire world? What the hell does McConnell give a fuck? who's going to stop him?

The same people who stopped the Kavanaugh nomination the same people who stopped him from denying Obama his Supreme Court pick, nobody.


I don't pray for a lot of people to have a sudden heart attack but if I were to, McConnell would definitely be high up on the list at this point.

Kavanaugh FBI investigation = Sandbagged Impeachment Trial.

Interesting to reflect on how our hopes rise at certain points, only to be disappointed as reality bitterly sinks in.
