Lack of popularity didn’t stop Trump/Republicans from withdrawing from the climate change agreement, try to build the wall, ban Muslims, try to destroy Obamacare, etc. They only care what their minority thinks. They have no interest in compromising.
GOP leaders have waged what amounts to an aggressive anti-#MeToo campaign in Brett Kavanaugh’s defense, not only rejecting the charge that he behaved improperly but more broadly arguing that men in America are in peril (@perrybaconjr) details: https://t.co/VVQsef36hS pic.twitter.com/VdArMnAnI4

Since his nomination, net support for Kavanaugh has sunk, but not among Republicans. He's the most polarizing nominee since at least the Reagan administration. https://t.co/UoaQbyZAPE

51 Senators who represent 40% of the population will confirm a SCOTUS nominee who has the support of under 40% of the population, and was nominated by a man who came in 2nd in the popular vote. Can we stop saying the US is the greatest democracy in the world? It was never true.
