For one thing, it didn’t make any fucking sense for a prosecutor to examine her anyway. This wasn’t some court case where someone was charged with a crime. Legally speaking, it made no goddamn sense to use a prosecutor.Kavanaugh was indignant, abrasive, and defensive. He also cried multiple times.
If Ford behaved this way, republicans would call her hysterical and unhinged. They would dismiss anything she would have actually said based on that demeanor alone. That’s the gender double standard.
Can you imagine if Kavanaugh was treated the same way as Ford was? You know...with the presumption of innocence? She was treated with kid gloves by EVERYONE...even the "prosecutor" that questioned her. I think everyone was afraid she'd have a nervous breakdown if they asked her anything hard and they'd be blamed for making a "true American hero" go crazy!
Also, Kavanaugh had a substantial amount of time to tell his side of the story. No one even questioned him! Ford was the only one questioned by a lawyer. Did that thought ever occur to you? Quit pretending Kavanaugh is some victim. You both come across as such snowflakes. Man up.
