Donald Trump isn’t playing defense anymore.
He’s taking up the fight against the Democrats and the media over Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination.
And Trump dropped one surprise that revealed the truth about Kavanaugh’s accuser.
Donald Trump Presses The GOP To Play Offense
The Washington Post reported that Trump got angry with Senate Republicans.
Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley bent over backwards to accommodate Christine Ford, the woman who is accusing Kavanaugh of trying to rape her at a high school party.
Despite the fact that she has no evidence and all the witnesses she named denied being at the party, Grassley still treated her flimsy allegations as serious.
This led to a massive delay in the Senate to vote on Kavanaugh.
Ford strung the GOP along and that allowed the Democrats to drop a second false allegation about Kavanaugh.
The New Yorker ran an article where Deborah Ramirez claimed Kavanaugh exposed himself to her at a college party.
Ramirez admitted to being drunk and unsure if Kavanaugh was even there.
She also called classmates to ask them if they recalled Kavanaugh being there.
It was clear her allegation was false.
Trump Pushes The GOP To Defend Kavanaugh
But the Democrats miscalculated.
Trump began defending Kavanaugh on Monday.
He called Ford and Ramirez’s allegations “false.”
Trump tweeted:
The Democrats are working hard to destroy a wonderful man, and a man who has the potential to be one of our greatest Supreme Court Justices ever, with an array of False Accusations the likes of which have never been seen before!
Grassley also finally drew a line with Ford.
He said the GOP would hire an outside female lawyer who would question Ford.
That enraged Ford.
Her lawyer, Michael Bromwich, sent a letter to Grassley claiming the hearing was unfair.
“In our view, the hiring of an unnamed ‘experienced sex crimes prosecutor’ as Mr. Davis described in his email, is contrary to the Majority’s repeated emphasis on the need for the Senate and this Committee’s members to fulfill their constitutional obligations,” Ford’s attorney wrote.
“It is also inconsistent with your stated wish to avoid a ‘circus,’ as well as Dr. Blasey Ford’s repeated requests through counsel that senators conduct the questioning. This is not a criminal trial for which the involvement of an experienced sex crimes prosecutor would be appropriate.”
“The hearing plan that Mr. Davis described does not appear designed to provide Dr. Blasey Ford with fair and respectful treatment,” Bromwich concluded.
Her lawyer gave the game away.
Critics believe it showed Ford really does not want to testify.
She named four other students who were at the party and every one denied being there or that the party even happened.
They did so under the penalty of perjury.
The only one who has not testified on the record is Ford.
And while she claims she does want to testify, her lawyer keeps hinting that she will not show up.
Trump pushed the GOP to fight on this issue.
And they exposed Kavanaugh’s accusers as being liars.
