A prediction for tomorrow

[SCantiGOP]

I think we move to an FBI investigation.
I think several repubs, mainly Flake, Murkowski, Collin, maybe even Corker, might jointly state that they are not ready to vote Yes until the FBI takes a look.

What Trump might then do about the DOJ would be anybody’s guess, but I think there are at least a half dozen dedicated republicans who are afraid that this process is going to permanently damage their party.

Just throwing that out there. Wouldn’t want to have to bet money on it.

1. Me neither, but there is speculation.

2. They might move it out of committee anyway- let the senate deal.

3. Kavanaugh won't survive a real FBI investigation.

withdrawal is really the only option. The GOP dudes are going to look so bad.

[LiberalFighter]

4. Yep! Corker and Flake won't have to because they will be gone.

If they expect a future who knows how that will turn out. Whether it hurts or helps them.

5. AB Stoddard just said on MSNBC that some Rs are willing to lose power to get Kav on the bench

But not all of them.

[Stinky The Clown]

7. Others have reported the same

I can see it if, in fact, that gets him confirmed. But if there is weak support and not enough votes, I think they'll cut him loose. Certainly Reverse Raccoon Face would cut him loose.

6. When the FBI investigation is announced...

...Kavanaugh will withdraw.

[Grasswire2]

8. Even if Kav is confirmed, we hear from political heads that this would trigger a blue takeover ...

.....and then Kav could be impeached for cause. And Trump as well.

9. I posted this Wednesday night

Looks like my speculation worked out.
