Trump attacks second Kavanaugh accuser, saying she 'has nothing,' admits she was drunk

Source: The Washington Post

By John Wagner

September 25 at 11:28 AM

Breaking news: In brief remarks after his United Nations speech, President Trump called the allegations of sexual misconduct against Brett M. Kavanaugh “a con game being played by the Democrats.”

On Sunday, the New Yorker magazine reported that Deborah Ramirez, a classmate of Kavanaugh’s at Yale University, said he exposed himself at a party when they were both first-year students.

Trump said she was “totally inebriated and all messed up.”

Kavanaugh has denied this allegation as well as Christine Blasey Ford’s accusation that he sexually assaulted her when they were high school students.

And wonders why more women don't come out and report being sexually assaulted or raped. He is why they don't from his treating them as liars , and threatens them , and is really condoning people treat women like this now. What does that say when a sitting president treats women that way? He always backs the man, and always accuses women of lying. Unless the man is a minority and the woman isn't .

How about the witnesses to Kavanaugh sticking his penis in her face?
The raw, crude sexism of both of them is absolutely sickening...and the fake outrage at the occasional Democrat (Bill Clinton) who also acts like a pig only makes it worse.
These guys are stuck at the maturity level of 13 year olds.
I guarantee that they will attack Ms. Ramirez (a Yale alumna who was a first-generation student) more fiercely than they have attacked Dr. Blasey-Ford. They are racists too.

Granted our party is not perfect but generally when we have a bad apple we are willing to actually take steps to deal with it but they will just keep voting in the same bad apple for as long as they think they can win because winning is all they care about.
