Senator Lindsey Graham may have inadvertently tapped into the Democrats’ new strategy for discrediting Judge Brett Kavanaugh (or the nominee Trump presents next when Ruth Bader Ginsburg (age 85) punches out later this year).
Plan-A: Falsely accuse the nominee of sexual misconduct 30+ years ago (failed)
Plan-B: Character assassination for behavior (drinking beer) 30+ years ago (failed)
The recently reinvented Graham made a comment about “dunking him in water to see if he floats”. I suspect that will be Plan-C. In case you don’t get the reference, it was common practice in the Middle Ages (then again in the 17th century) to dunk a woman suspected of being a witch in the river to see if she floats or sinks. If the woman was a witch, the water rejected her and she would float.
The Democrats have run out of viable options and, given their proclivity of rash, emotional responses, this makes perfect sense – particularly during the next confirmation hearing, when emotions will be running VERY high with Trump’s third SCOTUS appointment. I think we can safely say that it will be nothing more than a witch hunt. And wouldn’t be ironic if the next nominee were a woman?
This scene from Monty Python and the Holy Grail exemplifies Democrat logic:
