Trump may have sealed Kavanaughs fate at his rally last night. [View all]

Trump mocked and called Ford a liar. He then tried to say young men are now the victims. Once again Trump shows just how stupid and ignorant he really is. That was the dumbest thing you could do at this moment.

Flake saw that rally and I think he was disgusted by it. I may be wrong, but I think Flake is going to vote no along with Collins and the women from Alaska. I think all three of them have been turned off with the process that is taking place.
