McConnell calls Kavanaugh opponents a “mob”

He sounds like Trump now.  I think that protestors should not have bothered Cruz in a restaurant or shout while Senators are speaking but McConnell is very wrong here.

We’re never going to heal the divisions in the country if one side talks like this.  They don’t care.

Judge rules against Trump on sanctuary cities

Courts have overturned Trump policies on immigration again.

Trump lies and says China is meddling in the 2018 elections

This baseless claim serves two purposes for Trump:

  1. deflects attention from real meddling by Russia
  2. gives him another reason to challenge the results of the elections if Republicans lose the House or Senate

Republicans can’t win on the issues such as health care so they run a lot of negative ads.

Tyranny of the minority part 2

see my post from 9/13/18

This is so frustrating!  A minority is dictating how the Supreme Court acts.

The Kavanaugh investigation isn’t over

The limited investigation was a sham limited in scope by the White House.  If the Democrats win the House or Senate, I expect them to conduct a full investigation so we can find out what the truth is.  I’m not ready to impeach him though I am very concerned about his partisan rant at the hearing.  Let’s see how it plays out.

 

Final polls show Kavanaugh was unpopular but Republicans don’t care

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.
