During a speech from the Senate floor on Friday morning, less than an hour before the Senate holds a cloture vote on Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation, Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) claimed that Democrats had treated Kavanaugh worse than rejected Supreme Court nominee Robert Bork and Clarence Thomas, the Supreme Court justice accused of sexual harassment in the 1990s.
“What left wing groups and their Democratic allies have done to judge Brett Kavanaugh is nothing short of monstrous. I saw what they did to Robert Bork, I saw what they did to Clarence Thomas,” he said. “That was nothing compared to what we witnessed here in the last three months.”

Poor ol* Chuck - never mind , Dumpy will kiss it better .
Grassley:
WOW so rarely do I agree with Grassley there must have been a wrinkle in the space time continuum.
Grassley added: “I’d support a serial rapist for a lifetime gig on the Supreme Court if he were a Republican.”
It’s always astonishing to me that the GOP behaves as if no one has any memory of actual events.
I don’t know why I’m always astonished. They do it because it works and no one calls them out for their dishonesty.
The only ‘fix’ that was in was that you were going to confirm a white man who was super partisan. You didn’t care if he was a liar and a fraud. BY GOD you were going to spiff him up and launch him into the court. When your plans were upset by accusations you decided to screw up your faces and BLAME THE DEMOCRATS for having the nerve to question him…totally forgetting Garland and Gorsuch and confirmations and such. You cranky old fraud.
