We're not talking about putting him on trial for the attempted rape, or even firing him from his federal judgeship. We're talking about a *lifetime* appointment to the Supreme Court.
Just take a second and wrap the mind around this terrific point. Kavanaugh isn't going to be set back by this. He will still have his lifetime appointment on the federal Court of Appeals. He only won't get to be one of the nine most elite judges in the land. Boo-hoo. He *should* be prosecuted for theft of documents, and for lying to congress the first time. He *should* lose his law license for both of those things. Instead, he is so certain of his own magnificence, he will categorically deny the account of a woman he sexually assaulted, and brazen it out.
I believe her. I believe the attack has cost her a lot through the years. Whereas, Kavanaugh grew up to become a judge. Now, he's in line to become a Supreme Court Judge. He's supposed to go on to make heavy decisions in the highest US court, some of which will likely be centered around rape.
Yes, but it's also much more than that. It's any case regarding women's rights. This incident is just another piece in the puzzle showing exactly how this man thinks of women. We already know he doesn't believe we have the right to bodily autonomy when it comes to our health. This just ices the understanding that he doesn't believe women have bodily autonomy, period. We are objects for the at-will gratification of men. His buddy, Mark Judge, has also written extensively about his attitudes toward women, his drunken behavior (and Kavanaugh's, too, who Judge gives the pseudonym McKavanaugh in writing about his high-school self). They were, and are, close friends with closely aligned socio-political views.
Women are only to be believed when they support men, ally with men (like the handy 65 character-vouchers), never when they accuse.
