My suggestion, get that mob rule mentally that the blues enabling for years under control because we are a heavily armed population who will us them when the time comes and a group who will feed the Democrats to the groups of angry blue mobs for them to do with as the please during the 4T.
She did have credibility, and one witness I assume did not want to tell the truth under oath, and the rest of them were ignored. It was Kavanaugh who cried and yelled and screamed and showed himself unfit to serve, but since he is right-wing the Republicans supported him.
BTW, you can see pinko's on any popular blue news outlet these days. The bulk of never Trump Republicans who jumped ship when Trump won the primary are a bunch pinko's. The Republicans who jumped ship when the Tea Party showed up & made waves were pinko's. BTW, I don't know many of them either.
It is possible to be or simulate outrage when standards suddenly change, when behavior that was once acceptable becomes deplorable, disqualifies one from following ones profession. This seems to have happened here. It is common with 4Ts that what used to be acceptable under the old set of morality is rejected by a more inclusive morality which enlarges "All men are created equal." Women are not playthings anymore. Those who treated them as such have to pay a price.
"Pinko" seems to be a general pseudo insult more associated with Xer's world view than anything else. The word once meant communist, an association with the old Soviet Union or China. With the word being associated with 'socialism', I anticipate it will be applied to anyone who wants to promote the general welfare, something true Americans used to be proud of, something the US Government is charged to do.
Those who embraced Trump over the establishment were both tired of Establishment Republicans and their habit of supporting the elites, and deplorables who took cover under the Republican Southern Strategy. I can sympathize with the former, while deploring the deplorables. I can see classic communists favoring abandoning loyalty to the capitalists. Marx did see some real problems, if not the correct solutions. However, communists are not the Trump base or Trump. They are too tiny a minority.
I would like to reject prejudice, and would like it to be un American, but alas prejudice is quite historically American. As American as fighting it.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
