Donald Trump is the President Mark IV (Read Mod Warning in OP)

The woman from Arizona might as well go home. The GOP are going to ask their own questions.

Parallels to McCarthyism now.

So farts, sore stomachs, don't you know I went to Yale and I like beer is the theme for the night.

Yeah sure he was a virgin and didn't drink much. Yet he was the captain of numerous sports teams and his calendar is filled with drink related activities.

He's a liar. A serial liar.

To be fair, going through anyone's year book article in forensic detail decades later in what is basically a professional job interview is pretty tough for anyone.

Yeah?? It's being done every day by employers who investigate Social Media pages of applicants. These days, ppl write the equivalent of a Yearbook page every single day on Facebook!

And this is a job he's going for.. And its a lifetime appointment!!

He's all "Yes sir senator" now.
No deference shown when he's being questioned by Dems though.

GOP aren't questioning, they're just making statements.

Did anyone really expect anything else?

I dunno. I'd be pretty safe with it bar probably an awful photo. Mind you, me and 16 classmates didn't decide to record for future generations a nasty insinuation of having sex with another student and dropping and making a mockery of them.

Is it a common thing or something that it'd be so hard to defend your yearbook entry years later?

It's not up to the accuser to prove anything, it's up to the prosecutor. And the bit in between is the investigator.

To be fair, the Dems were doing the same thing with Dr Ford earlier..

Missed that bit. I had no intention of watching this either and yet here I still am!

Is he asking if the senator was a drunk in the past?

Grassley still waffling about the FBI while refusing to get them to investigate. Stupid ass. The judge has been through 6 FBI investigations in the past with nothing turning up adverse to him, now all of a sudden Grassley & Co don't see the need for one when three women have reported they were sexually assaulted by the judge in the past al, because the FBI doesn't reach conclusions after it's investigations. Senator, pull the other one.

Nah.

Someone just pointed out the discrepancy between his attitude between GOP and DEM senators. Lots of US based people tweeting that with the obvious disdain for the democrats he shouldn't get the position for that alone.

Wouldn't blame him the Democrats decided to try and destroy this guy's life in the name of protecting roe vs wade. They probably feel it's justified.

Senator Amy Klobuchar is doing a good job here. Why was that question relevant from Kavanagh about whether Senator Klobubhar liked to drink ?

He's still running with it being a Democrat conspiracy against him but nobody honestly believes the Democrats came up with 4 actresses to make false claims of sexual assault against someone, especially when one of them mentioned it in therapy in 2012, it just doesn't make sense...

Agree about his attitude to Democrats vs Republicans aswell, that should disqualify him on its own.

Yeah, thanks for simplifying that for us. We were all thinking it was because of sexual assault claims.
