Wow, Lindsey, that's one numb ballsack you got there. I don't believe or like Clarence Thomas, but if you look back at how he dissembled at Anita Hill's accusations, that's how you keep self-control and look impartial while being accused. Kavanaugh was a petty little brat.

.sarahkendzior One thing is certain: The Russians or Trump or both have SOMETHING on Lindsey Graham. We know his emails were hacked.

He is not destroyed. But he is a bad choice. He had his chance to be the first to demand an FBI investigation. Oops. I certainly would have. Kavanaugh knows too much about his own behavior. That's what the tears were about. In 34 yrs. as an Inv. all but one of my cries did time.

In comparative metaphor, Judge Merrick Garland was hit by a plane then. How about that? Dems must never stop bringing up the case of Judge Garland. His was the most egregiously unfair in the entire history of Senate confirmation battles. None since, or before it, comes close.

Sure, and abandon the women. Great idea👎. The man needs help as even his friends don’t believe him.

👎👎🏿👎🏽

Accuse me of these vile crimes and I’d come out mad and swinging too. ConfirmBrettKavanaugh

He wouldn’t say that if it was a woman. Can’t stand!

He knows the process is tough, he particp[ated in it and gave no quarter

Vote this guy out.

This is ridiculous. I'd like to see all of your male relatives being accused through an orchestrated attack and being cool with it. You are trying to destroy a man's life without any evidence SHAMEONYOU DUEPROCESSFIRST

Graham is a wossy anyway.

Exactly! Very proud of this good man. ConfirmKavanaughNow

Clearly, Senator Graham has never seen a car accident involving a pedestrian. What’s happening is asking tough questions for a job interview.

Predator hit by truck driven by a survivor.

Did you see a Supreme Court Justice? Just like you saw a president in Donald Trump? Who are you Senator Graham? What have you become?

Wrong. It’s the temper tantrum of denial. And your temper tantrum is the defense of someone in denial. All sick and would not have been tolerated by a women.

Study psychology and look at his lies, non-answers, and attacks.

This is a picture of an evil man!

Agree ComfirmKavanaughNow

BeSpotted That is exactly how a man should react when wrongly accused.

The temperament of a couple of drunks crying & screaming around at a judiciary hearing are hardly "innocent" but demonstrated what a couple of out of control drunks seething hatred and false accusations looks like. Kavanaugh should be withdrawn & Lindsey Graham go to Betty Ford.

How quickly we forget Al Frankin..and he didnt even rape anyone... DoubleStandard

Matt Damon on what he would do if he were accused falsely by a woman. What a hypocrite.

So tired of hypocrites...Always from the Left.

That’s what anyone with half a brain saw.

Republicans are all crisis actors and not good ones. Fainting couches for them all. Wusses who bow to Trump. Cowards. Can't wait for November.

Eich28N I agree! Who wouldn’t be indignant?

Obviously the same temperament Senator Graham has been exhibiting himself lately. Apparently he's just one of many innocent GOP pols. expressing their righteous indignation at all attempts to thwart their fascist aims to remain in power & impose their will on the majority.

He has a right to be angry, but his behavior toward Whitehouse, Klobuchar was was that of a spoiled brat. His actions were not that of a grown man.

LindseyGrahamSC McCain would have been ashamed of you.

I’m starting to like Graham again. Since McCains passing he has moved more to the right, which is a good thing.

rachal_fung I saw a man gutted by false accusations who has always led an exemplary life worked hard and now sees his life and family being attacked & threatened for political reasons. He had a right to be upset he is human not a machine!!

Orangeblood2012 Senator Graham is now standing 20 feet tall. Loving LindseyGrahamSC !

No. It’s of a man who bullies

He should also exhibited some self control.

Judicial temperament requires that one display calm in the face of an alleged offense. So when he is offended by something in a case, will he follow his anger or the law? The allegations by Dr. Ford are NOT politically motivated LindseyGrahamSC

LindseyGrahamSC NOT! HE'S NOT FIT & YOU SHOULD RESIGN!

Everyone Trump touches dies. Adios, Lindsey

Why is his testimony called fiery? If she had acted that way they would have accused her of throwing a hissy fit and of being hysterical, and overly dramatic.

Graham is a thoroughly nasty little man. What does trump have on him or is it all about this?...

I did not see a man who should be on the Supreme Court or any court

No, he was a man who knew he had to perjure himself in pursuit of power.

No Graham, you stopped the questioning of Kavanaugh because the truth was being revealed that he was guilty.

I saw a person who failed to pass a job interview. Who the hell hires a person who yells and acts that way to a possible boss. Ridiculous.

Member of SCOTUS bar says KP doesn't have requisite experience. Never a public defender, prosecutor or tried a civil case or served as trial judge. Now add temperament, evasiveness, belligerence, respect for process etc. Period. Full stop.

Brett Kavanaugh does not deserve to be on the Supreme Court. He is a liar, he is belligerent, he is rude. He does not have the right kind of temperament to be a Supreme Court Judge. IBelieveChristine WithdrawKavanaugh

Listen old man, retire now.

Pathetic is all I can say about this pitiful excuse of American.

The GOP went to a training “Creative with language”... Crazytown 🤪

Senator Graham that is a lot of BS. Judge Kavanaugh is just another spoiled brat that doesn't want to be held accountable for his actions

VOTE him OUT!

You decided before Ford testified FU LindseyGrahamSC Fords a honest women 2020Redemption

That's just your beer goggles.

Graham's plain lack of interest in getting down to the truth of the matter is appalling at worst and idiotic at best. Kavanaugh's temperament displayed a man who considers himself above the law. American people deserve better.

What I saw is phoney "righteous indignation" covering up a significant character flaw...if we step away from partisanship and Senate Machiavellian BS, we'd realize that, out of 350M, there're better out there...

Lindsey Graham's naked ambition to be a "loyal" AG to POTUS shows his true character. He will go as low as he can to get what he wants.....probably the only man that kept him in check is now gone. I'm glad Sen. McCain isn't here to see his "friend" turn traitor.

Try to remember that you work for US.....you have absolutely NO say in the future of ANY nomination unless WE , the people, decide to elect you!

What I saw was total subservience to Trump’s instructions to be more aggressive and a temperament not suited to a judge let alone a justice.

Listen BK has himself to blame & GOP, the theory,innocent until proven guilty serves a purpose. So how is this accomplished,if there is lack of evidence through investigation.This is a job interview-regardless if BK’ professional status,he’s not exempt from scrutiny of the facts!

All I saw was a LIAR who doesn’t even deserve to b a judge at all! The American public who say he’s not lying r as delusional as trump!! People WAKE UP! He cannot b confirmed! Even all u trump supporters shud c that!

Someone pass this old queen a mint julep

Kavanaugh got money he can't payback if he isn't confirmed and so did Lindsey, that's why they're getting upset republicans couldn't pull it off so far bunch of them taking russians $$, obstructing and distracting to destroy USA for Putin

iq4.5 and republicans knew about all this rape stuff that's why they withheld most of his records and classified others that didn't need to be classified, then had 65 signatures from women since as Ford appeared

I saw a man trying to take the offensive to deflect questions he didn’t want to answer. Why is it always okay for men to be offensive and rageful, but not for women? I was not impressed-this is not SCOTUS behavior

Graham you are allowed to see what you see. Even though it is not what many others see in Kavanaugh or about that sexual assault allegation. One thing is another person's life has been damaged emotionally already by that act if indeed it happened. No politics with someone's life.

He should have seen that truck comming and got off the rails!

Old boys stereotypical response...

Does this woman look like a victim?A victim confronted with her accuser would be mad as talk?Maybe regressing to a 5 year older but Kavanaugh was sure not around.HE IS INNOCENT.

Of course he do, look at his own performance, that's tell you all you need to know

But she was slated to be your president according to the left. Double standards?

Amen 🙏 to that

It’s but right of him to get angry after these hypocritical Dems that knows nothing but to disrupt and destroy the judicial process.

Apparently Graham was too. It has seriously effected his thought process.

No credibility. Liar for trump

So offensive the way yall completely ignore a person you claim is credible, and take over her trauma with your ridiculous conspiracy theories. But that is what happens when you can't rely on truth or facts.

Totally agree

He is angry that all the little details are going to bring his pattern of lies into the open.

I saw a shell of a man who were rude, disrespectful and scared as hell that his demons were finally being exposed.

LindseyGrahamSC, I saw a man freaking out because his skeletons were being exposed. I saw a man who could easily be bought, blackmailed or influenced by those holding his secrets.... your behavior was also reminiscent of a man who has something to hide.

Hit him with a bull dozer n charge em ALL with Treason

MissyJo79

You’d never hire a woman that acted the same

A rapist needs run over at some point whether it’s by a truck or a car I couldn’t care is long as one takes them out.

Innocent? That’s a big question mark! You wouldn’t allow an investigation or testimony, so how could you possibly know. What we do know, is that his responses during his testimony were contradictory and extremely partisan. How can we believe he’ll be impartial and fair?

....WHAT ABOUT...JAMES COMEY AND ANDREW MCCABE...BEING DESTROYED..BY REPUBLICAN'S POLITICAL PURPOSE ....

I think most normal people would be a bit more than “offended” when your life and family have been destroyed by accusations from a obliviously bought and paid for fruitcake. Absolutely disgusting, I hope it never happens to your son, husband or father, and it can !

Not a Dem conspiracy - it's repeated sexual assault claims & perjury! WTF's wrong with LindseyGrahamSC?! His temperment is also reckless AF! Vote out ALL ComplicitGOP in the 2018Midterms NovemberIsComing 2020isComing StopKavanaugh VoteBlueToSaveAmerica 🌊🇺🇸

I will take great joy watching Graham choke on his own words!

If indeed he is “destroyed” it will be because he is guilty and thus deserves to be held accountable. If not, he can manage his “trauma” like everyone expects women to manage theirs-go on with your life in silence. If women are expected to do it-so too, men!

He deserves an Oscar.

The temperament the rest of us saw was that of a guilty man, trying to shift the blame, as most GOP lap dogs do, and worm his way up to the highest court to complete Putin's take over of all 3 branches

The temperament he showed was one of a vengeful, sexist, over indulged guy who loves beer.

Graham is just as crazy as Trump!

the temperament Kavanaugh demonstrated is not one that belongs on the high court. a competent judge needs to be able to control his temper and think logically under pressure.

Is this where we’re supposed to say “womp-womp”, or start calling people snowflakes? Asking for a friend.

Trouble is it wasn't political. Nice try but Graham is the political one here.

Kavanaugh has the temperament and composure of a drunk teenager. He can’t handle the stress of being questioned about his behavior

said the gay man who won't come out of the closet.

Democrats are losing the Union vote as well as the minority vote. Their lying, crying, obstructionism is obvious. No more Blue Dog democrats spells trouble for their party.

What do they have on graham? He seems insane now.

I can be found not guilty by temperament? That’s a new one

But who is terrified of a proper investigation...

Lindsey Graham, just like his new best friend Donald Trump, will tell us any damn thing, won't he? KavaNo

The GOP are worried about Mueller and what he knows and it must be a hum dinger

No Senator. His display of anger and contempt was much like yours the other day. Both of you showed just how accustomed you are to being a bully and stepping on those in your way.

Another hypocrite!!. The mid term is approaching so ALL of them will throw away whatever little integrity that they had left to vote for Bret dispicable

Can he explain his hysterical outburst? What the hell was Graham going over the deepe end ?

You sound like you were there? Dr. Ford said that she was 100% Kavanaugh sexually molester her and that his friend Mark Judge was also in the same room! An innocent does no act belligerent, does not accuse others for his mistakes! PUNTO

🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊train will be hitting GO P soon...thx u God!🙏

This is all evidence based, emotions don't work

The demorats our awful I think we will be surprised that most common sense Americans feel the same way ,the polls will be wrong again , vote red !

That's rich. He had already perjured himself several times before he went on the outraged rank/fake crying deal. And graham knows that. And they had no qualms about trying to throw an innocent man under the bus to make kav. look innocent - remember that part of the show?

Exactly, if he wasn’t trying to choke anyone, he was very controlled!

Wow, so all these women commenting know him personally! Way to condemn before proven guilty! Where are your facts! These are drive by slanderers! Anyone accused has a right to strongly deny , disagree and defend himself! Be angry and do not sin! Lord help him!

Politico is liberal nonsense. FakeNews

Yup

What’s your excuse then?

No he was not hit by a truck - he is a job applicant being interviewed for a critical job that requires putting country ahead of opinions and personal vendettas and ego

No, Mr Graham it was a desperate man playing a Trump like “ tough guy” for TV... unfortunately, the Fox News types eat that reality tv crap up.

Most of us saw an evasive angry rant by someone who knew he was guilty but didn’t care

No. His ego took a hit from the truth. He found it untenable.

LindseyGrahamSC OR....by someone who gets angry because he is finally being exposed for the pig he is. hethoughtheburiedhispast youareallscumfordefendinghim voteYOUout youneedtogo

LindseyGrahamSC isn't your attitude up there with Kavanaugh? Don't you think you are the reflection in the mirror of this terrible house of horrors? Isurvived

The temperament I saw was an angry white man that was caught with his pants down, yelling and drinking a lot of beer. He also proved he is partisan and interjected a political view when he should have no politic as l view in this process! iseeithowiseeit

What? Innocent after abusing women after getting intoxicated? If you say that, empty the US jails right now&all of them should be freed immediately forthwith. Those victims of that sex predator Kavanaugh coming from the very intellectual class of this country, not from the street

Funny I saw a man white knuckle-ing it. Flustered, sweaty, dry mouthed, angry

And what was your excues, LindseyGrahamSC?

But these female victims shouldnt be offended by being destroyed for a sexual purpose? 🖕

sadforjournos Kavanagh was blindsided. The moment he was nominated Democrats like Schumer called him evil, thousands will die, we'll do EVERYTHING TO STOP HIM‼️🚫They were honest about THAT‼️ Prof Ford had at least 7wks to prepare and be coached by seasoned attorney(s) ref by FEINSTEIN‼️

What I witnessed was a sick display of hate, and I for one will not support none of it. Kavanaugh had every right to be livid. Good for him. Dems in my opinion as a Independent voter over played their hand and will cost them in midterms.

Seemed more like an out of control rant. Not normal to raise all kinds of conspiracy theories. As a lawyer and Judge how many cases has he heard with testimony from a defendant who says they are wrongly accused?! Probably 98%. How would he have ruled if one had acted like he did?

I love that he’s on defensive. He knows it’s bullshit.

I know your favorite part was when he started spouting about right wing conspiracies Soros and the Clintons at fault(yawn). His 4 days of “prepping” (aka indoctrination) by the WH was effective. All cults should be impressed.

I say BS to Graham! This judge was being interviewed for one of the highest honors in this country. People nominated for such office are subject to investigation into their character. Kavanaugh is a prime example of wealth thus making him the prodigal son.

I feel like you were probably a very decent man for a large part of your life. What happened?

If Trump didn’t nominate the judge he’d wake up tomorrow a happy family man just going about his business but Trump has exposed the judge! Trump is to blame for ruining this guy! Everything Trump does turns to crap!

That’s one point of view

I am sorry, but your side of the political aisle is simply too dishonest and depraved for me to believe anything you say, leftist. MAGA

Under extreme stress this week, JeffFlake showed how one in power should act. When confronted by survivors in elevator, he didn't shout at or ignore them & force them away. He listened w/respect & compassion. Pressure reveals true character. StopKavanaugh

We asked for it. She asked for it.

nedryun It's amazing people talk of temperment....When is the last time you were accused of rape and your family threaten because of these false accusations..You dont think you be pissed and flip out a little. Damn right you would

That isnt the temperament I saw

No. He was a disaster before the truck hit him.

Graham...what’s Russia got on YOU, anyhow?

And that is why he aggressively insulted amyklobuchar?

She might have been abuse? However Kavanaugh didn’t do it.

Think about the game called Rock Paper Scissors. Justice beats Injustice.

Let me get this straight. LindseyGrahamSC is expending all of his political capital, such as it is, to help to confirm a completely perjured alleged serial sexual predator to the Supreme Court. With no further investigation. Really? It’s beyond me.

Lindsey was auditioning for the AG job when Sessions is fired.

America is doomed with Congressional grandstanding from people like THIS guy.

That wasn’t what I saw

What do they have on you Lindsey?

He is defended his name, family and kids. God help anyone if a person said you or your husband did something that never did.

Spot ON!

right here i see a bunch of regurgitators of fakenews media talking points. let's set out to destroy your entire existence with fabricated allegations and see how you react. Male, female, white black or purple- a falsely accused person will respond this way.

Ford is a hoax she is a liar. I do not believe any of it. This is a dem cult paid hoax. Everyone sees through this crap. The Dem cult needs to be I castigated for all of its criminal activity. Wake up America vote the Dem cult out!!!

You do mean guilty, Don’t you?,.

Bullshit

Maybe was hit by a truck, but was he held down while someone ground their junk on him and coveted his mouth so he couldn't scream? Asking for about 30 million women rape survivors.

You’re defending a drunk person for political purpose

Hopefully someone hits you with a truck.... Literally.

No LindseyGrahamSC that’s not what you saw & you know it! But you saw your chance to grandstand & impress realDonaldTrump in hopes he’ll give you the AG job! You are a disgrace! And a transparent one!

Then why do he lie? Kav does not have judicial temperament, Has political bias!

He was DRIVING that truck.

New Rules: -Never, ever, under any circumstances, vote for a Democrat. They’re a corrupted lot of police-state tyrants. -Never, ever, in any future PRIMARY, vote for any Republican who fails to support Kavanaugh. -Never, ever, under any circumstances, surrender to the Democrats

I’m sure because of your liberal views he is disposable. I hope you reap what you sow.

What was he hit with?

Omg Lindsay go away.

If he was so offended, why didn't he ask for an FBI investigation to clear his name?

Kavanaugh lied about everything.

I call BS

He's full of it. What I saw was fake indignation and a man unsuitable to be on the Supreme Court.

The man has lied, and does not deserve to be on the bench.

Graham is a hypocrite! He said that if Clinton had won he would vote against any of her Supreme Court nominees. He is a moral degenerate.

Pity Graham had zero sympathy for Merrick Garland or his family.

LindseyGrahamMustResign or be voted out of office. He mentioned "dispicable? The most dispicable behavior I've seen in a Senator was committed by Lindsey Graham during the Kavanaugh hearing. His outrage was misplaced and he should love his seat.

Lindsey Graham has absolutely no BDE, yet tries so hard to act as if he does. He comes off as Grover Dill (Christmas Story).

Wonder how Clinton felt when Kavanaugh tried to destroy him for a political purpose?

No, LindseyGrahamSC, you saw a man that doesn’t have the temperament to sit on the SCOTUS. You also saw a man that perjured himself on numerous occasions.

Oh please. Men cry foul at the drop of a hat with no empathy sympathy or concern for the women they abuse. They just cry.

LindseyGrahamSC How do you know for certain Brett Kavanaugh is innocent? How do you know he didn't do what Dr. Ford accuses him of? Is his temperament appropriate for SCOTUS? There are doubts! This is too important to be partisan. Get off your show horse and listen to USA.

He lied under oath. Release ALL the documents!

Kavanaugh exhibited an emotional anger flailing out at the Clintons and Soros without any foundation. His reaction was irrational which bodes poorly for methodically listening and rendering a judgement with justice. I saw no calm composure nor courage, just bitterness.

ComfirmKavanaugh VoteOutDemoRats AmericaFirst BuildTheWall DefeatFartacus

Just what is Graham's interest in this matter? To the point of being irrational. Of threatening to fake accusations against future Dem nominees. There's something really wrong here. What is it?

The man I saw, Sen. Graham, could not control his emotions when sober. I can imagine that he could get pretty ugly when drinking! I saw a man who is not temperamentally suited to be a fair, calm, and impartial judge.

Why does it seem that the metoo is trying to hold Judge Kavanaugh accountable for all injustices women have been subjected to at the hands of someone who is not Kavanaugh?

No Sir, you are wrong!

The temperament I saw was a man out of control because he wasn’t getting what he wanted. A man who believes he is entitled to it . What I saw were the actions of a man no employer would hire, much less be put on the Supreme Court!

hangovers sure do feel like that sometimes, don’t they?

If he is innocent, why would he not have insisted on a full FBI investigation to clear him? Why would he not have remained calm and answered questions fully, directly and in a respectful way?

He looked like a gay lover that had been scorned, lots of experience with that, Lindsay?

Phony contempt works for Graham; no wonder he loves chubby don

If he really abused Dr. Ford as she described, it should have been an 18 wheeler or a tank.

Dems better look in their own back yard for liars and crooks.... Groping Cory Booker comes first to mind and his escapade in college/ not qualified to judge or represent the people.....

The temperament I saw LindseyGrahamSC was a man performing for drumpf saying "I want to be Attorney General".

If you look at yourselves you might see why there's so much anger in the world you two are a great demonstration why there's so much anger in people.

If only 🙄

i stand with kavanaugh.............willing to say innocent until proven guilty......willing to help enforce innocent until proven guilty.........1st at the voter box........& anywhere it has to defended after

“I believe she does have the intellectual capacity, but there is a character problem, there is a temperament problem” Sen. L. Graham on Sotomayor. Graham is sincere. And he sincerely has double standards.

If he was hit by a truck what were you hit with Sen. Graham? Your tirade was weird and inappropriate as well. If u had just allowed an FBI investigate done of this would have occurred. You threatened future judicial hearings. Pay back. U r harming our democracy.

What we saw waz a guilty man upset at the prospect of losing a seat he has been salivating over NoKavanaugh

There is an FBI investigation, and it want take long because there are only 4 ppl & 1 lie detector to interview. Also the emails and text between Mrs Ford and Senators.

2 words Lindsey, horse shit!

So the Trump “ reality tv” 3 day practice & prep work for the overly dramatic acting of the Kavanaugh “righteously indignant “ performance was a FAIL! Let’s leave acting to the propely trained Actors ..like Matt Damon shall we?

Graham could care less if he is innocent. Graham and the republicans make it sound like you get a merit badge for sexual assault.just listen to them

The temperament of the man I saw was mean, angry, belligerent and showed a man who hates women!

And a bully

Besides Kavanaugh sexually assaulting women, the guy struggles to answer basic questions. KamalaHarris made Kavanaugh look stupid numerous times. So LindseyGrahamSC, what makes him so qualified to be on the Supreme Court? Brett is unfit, not impartial, entitled angry white man

I caught him in a lie with the first question asked. That disqualifies him for a promotion.

My take away from Kavanaugh's testimony is an extreme hatred towards the Democrats who did this to him. Why should I be surprised? For anyone who will betray their own flesh & blood via an abortion certainly isn't going to care about destroying someone's entire life. PURE_EVIL

His temperament was perfect. He called out the cheating liars on their B.S. Exactly what we need on the Supreme Court! Not one of you crap throwers would have done any better!

100% agreed... in fact not too long ago there would be a duel over such character assasination. He was measured in his response, absolutely appropriate given the allegation.

God, we wish

Horse shit!

SexualAssaultvictims know the truth...She's a liar. You know the place VERY WELL, your age, person(s) who did it, like a nightmare you remember every detail hoping you wake up, and when you do, you hope to forget it but can't. Metoo ...

2) Unless your going to allow this to be a new norm, and I pray your not and unless I as well as anyone else in search of a job can apply for one in the same manner and get that job after that rude and despicable display of what the job is not this says no way to be hired.

Bull crap! Out of control. To emotional, angry, biased. Not SC judge material.

Wrong !👎

Funny. Sounds like Graham was describing Strzok. Certainly sounds nothing like that raging, sniveling Kavanaugh.

Once again Graham is choosing to be on the wrong side of history. Historians will not be kind to the likes of McConnell, Graham and many of the other old white men of the GOP.

They both acted like triggered, rich, privileged white boys.

It takes an impeccable record to become a judge of the Supreme Court. Impeccable meaning you have to live a life beyond suspicion. It doesn’t matter what the truth is as far as being voted in goes. Kavanaugh can’t go in. Life’s not fair, get over it. Next please!

Exactly!

lindsey.....IF he was so upset....why the fuck wasn't HE demanding the FBI investigation. I don't know a SINGLE HUMAN.....male or female....who would NOT be demanding an investigation if they thought for ONE second they were innocent. How come he didn't. Speaks volumes!

Errand boy

Watch His and your testimony and tell me what you see Lindsey then tell the truth.

He lied UNDER OATH

Radical LEFT Dems evil heartless scam on a great American ConfirmKavanaughNow istandwithBrett

And Graham is 100% correct.

💩

LindseyGrahamSC Nonsensical and closed-minded. And to think many used to consider even you fair-minded and reasonable. Your personal rant and behavior spoke volumes. Quit playing for a party of 1

JenniferEvette6 Exactly. Where does Kavanaugh go to get his good name back from those who bear false witness?

I call it fear of not getting what he thinks he is entitled to

THAT was no example of judicial temperament; not for an elected district court judge let alone a Justice on SCOTUS! That man doesn’t belong being a judge in TRAFFIC court!

Blaming a political party and “leftists”, calling it a political hit job, revenge of the Clintons...that’s not just anger about being unjustly accused. That partisan political statement will be a huge problem for him should be be confirmed.

Hey LindseyGrahamSC this is what most acne people saw.👇🏼 Watch "Kavanaugh Hearing Cold Open - SNL" on YouTube

His anger makes him innocent...

That is pure BS

The temperament I saw was of an entitled white male who thought his prize was being taken away. How dare she complain, she needs to shut up and cope. He doesn’t have a judicial temperament. At times he seemed unhinged.

Sounds about right from someone who takes hissy fits.

I gained a tremendous amount of respect for LindseyGrahamSC this week. Much respect for his sincerity.

There should be a wholesale investigation of this process AND all allegations against Judge Kavanaugh. But I’m guessing LindseyGrahamSC just wants the Dems investigated.

CarmiKarma Lindsey you're dead wrong. GOP's promoting a lying selfserving partisan tantrum prone unfit SC judgeship candidate in Kavanaugh just to be in the good books of sly lying Potus. DumpBrett!!!

I know what you’re doing. LindseyGrahamSC - Unraveling history so it falls in your favor upside down as it did. Now right sight up as it won’t. You’re complicit. At least JeffFlake has a compass. Women deserve better. So much better.

The temperament I saw was that of an evasive, petulant, bullying child.

He should have been hit by a truck, that sob.

No INNOCENT person behaves like Kavanaugh did last Friday. No one! You, LindseyGrahamSC may be fooled by Kavanaugh testimony, (which is cause for you to resign because we know that you know you don't really believe him) but, We The People are NOT fooled in the slightest.

Can somebody pls find out wht trump or Putin have this person? Please! Find out & make it public so he don’t have to keep embarrassing himself with these absurd statements. Since tht 1 golf game he has acted like he is being blackmailed.

The temperament I as well as the rest of America saw was a mean 😵

Kavanaugh’s deceit is evidence of his guilt. An innocent person might show a fiery temperament but wouldn’t repeatedly lie and construct logical fallacies.

So what

damonbethea1 If I have to see that jerks face, one more time on my wall I am going to scream! I don’t care what Graham says.

Lindsey Graham threw an equally shameful hissy fit in the hearing.

Mr. Graham - and what did you see in the temperament of Dr. Ford? And is this display of temperament by Kavanaugh what is required or acceptable for a Supreme Court Justice?

He doesn’t believe a word he says. He’s posturing for his orange master. Graham is a follower not a leader. He had higher quality people before now he’s at the barrel bottom.

Graham must take us for COMPLETE FOOLS if he thinks we're buying his drivel. Kavanaugh behaved like a classic, despicable LIAR! We know all GOP opposing FBI investigation are GUILTY! WhatAreTheyHiding StopKavanaugh WeBelieveDrFord LindseyGrahamSC

Graham is spouting off like he was paid to be the designated crazy partisan. How do all these Republicans willingly sell their souls to an administration rife with hatred, discrimination and corruption? One or two sure, but almost all of them? Something's not right here.

Graham was a DISGRACE.. Like a lil baby not getting his way.. I hope people in SC when time Vote that Dusgrace OUT!!

Why do people think "for a political purpose" is some kind of bad thing? this is a fight for women's rights everywhere! Damn right it's for a political purpose!

“Fiery?” I saw a teenager having a meltdown. Not the proper restraint of a judge. How has this guy ever sat on a bench?

Lindsey Graham said he's going to vote for Kavenaugh unless some bombshell comes out. Sexual assault allegations aren't a bombshell?

After Graham comments Brett Kavanaugh broke loose. 2. Should his testimony hold on "she says, I say" as it started, fine. But making a mockery of the proceedings, bragging abt his drinking, returning unanswered questions, claiming a farce and complot agains him, as he did?

LindseyGrahamSC is a very poor judge of character. NoKavanaughConfirmation VoteBlueToSaveAmerica

LindseyGrahamSC: SenateDems did not make these allegations; FIVE women from across the country made these claims over a number of months, including BEFORE he was nominated, about incidents spanning decades. His role is to defend himself - like yours, it's not attack Dems.

The guy you're referring to has a nasty temperament, unfit for someone on the Supreme Court for life. What I saw during the investigation is Kavanaugh is an elitist jerk. I bet he is a real prick whe nasty drunk. And it sure sounds like he was & possibly still is a big drinker.

All I saw was two tiny men throwing a tantrum because the truth was flooding out before them. LindseyGrahamSC JeffFlake BenSasse lisamurkowski

There’s another truck coming and we’re going to plow white male privilege down FlipItBlue

His strategy has serve him well, free coverage and publicity just before november elections!

You really want that AG job, don’t you Lindsey?

Sooooo that’s what drunks look like when confronted by their alcoholism 🍺🍺🍺🍺

Judge Kavanaugh would have had a better appearance if the FBI investigation preceeded the hearing. Leaving it to the two witnesses was a mistake. Both he and Dr. Ford (not to mention the American public) deserved better. Sen. Graham has only his committee GOP majority to blame.

Merrick Garland?

Lindsey Graham is a single white man with ambitions of getting Jeff sessions job becoming Attorney General every day he’s a different person different character.... And since John McCain has passed away he’s off the rails.

Dont worry,you got the job!

Bologna. Graham and idiot kavanaugh turn their faces to sexual assault victims

No that response was of a guilty man - you did the same thing because you all know that you are protecting a guilty man - just like you disregard all norms to protect the guilty man in the Oval Office!!

The temperament I saw was a scared angry entitled white male who is a complete partisan hack acting as guilty as f*** Not to mention alcoholic, gambling addicted perjurer

Bye Felicia

Because he was guilty and he never thought he would be found out. What we saw was terror.

Reminder, Graham, Kavanaugh lies to the Senate and to Congress. A liar and a thief. Why don’t you all release those 100s of papers you withheld from the Democrats. Bet you 11 old men already knew how scurrilous he is.

The temperament I saw was a man angry that he was asked to account for his time, & to submit to difficult questions about his past actions, while insulting his questioners. In so doing, he showed us all he was not fit to have the job he was interviewing for.

So Dr Ford should have acted like Kavanaugh and she would be believable. The dumb and ignorant things these senators to grandstand and appease Trump. Perhaps McCain wouldn’t recognized Lindsey now.

Fucking bullshit of LindseyGrahamSC and or Politico to run this headline. Clickbait FailingYourJob

After Graham's vitriolic aggressive outburst at the Kavanaugh so-called hearing I don't think he qualifies as a good judge of temperament!

Keith Ellison stands in front of the camera a just lies his ass off, as Twitter deletes his girl friends medical records, none of the fake news media says anything. I guess the double standard is alive an well. Waiting for Amy Klobuchar to ask for his FBI investigation? Good luck

The temperament I saw was a spoiled rich man of privilege who had never been denied anything and felt it his god given right to not be held accountable for his behavior. Maybe Lindsey Graham was watching some other fellow.

Then your blind in your soul!

We expect soldiers, police officers, emergency room doctors, and fire fighters to remain calm and professional under extreme stress. Supreme Court judge should be expected to do no less.

Kavanaugh lost control and demonstrated his temperament- not very judge-like

You're not raging while hit by a truck if you are innocent...only if you are caught.

The temperament I saw was a man guilty as sin belligerent and nasty not fit to have that job

No just another angry white man

No. You saw a guilty and fearful man unable to control himself.

He's not fit to sit on the court. And Lindsey Graham is so corrupt at this point he is not fit to be in Congress.

Boofing

Not what I saw!

Most in Washington understand what Lindsey Graham is doing! Donald Trump has promised him Jeff Sessions job as Attorney General, so Graham is trying to stay in Trump's good graces! But the Voters in SC are the Losers, as Graham takes care of himself, while letting SC Suffer!

nedryun Sounds about right

Regardless he should have not acted like he did. We all witnessed it. It Kavanagh wanted to get a fit on about these allegations, he should have done it in private.

At least he had a chance unlike Merrill Garland you hypocrite

Yes he did get run over by a truck. His name is Graham and that is the reason he can no longer think straight.

That truck was America.

The license plate on that truck said "REALITY"

He knew this might come out and chose to proceed. He put his family in this mess.

Kavanaugh Failed. As did Graham

Senator McCain is looking down with shame at Graham!

Poor boy !

He wasn’t hit by a truck, he was run over by a credible victim sexual assault! Now whether he did it or not remains to be seen. But any person with nothing to hide would welcome an investigation to clear their name & reputation! Kavanaugh has some skeletons he doesn’t want found!

And the truck apparently hit you too? Based on your bipolar potus performance Thursday LindseyGrahamSC

Graham needs to go. His pathetic attempt to impress Trump and get the AG job when Sessions is fired is crystal clear and sad.

LindseyGrahamSC why do you insist on the worst, most partisan, questionable, unprofessional, and possibly criminal judicial candidate? There are others on the list that would probably be confirmed without all this insanity. Kavanaugh has proven he's incapable.

Hmmmm.....how about that..kinda sounds like the Russia probe....graham- the trump flunky!

Graham is an IDIOT....the whole world heard it stated that FORD not only fwd her story to Feinstein's ofc w/ rqstcif anonymity, BUT also discussed her story w/certain friends too. But leave it to Reps 2try to find blame in the process, rather than the bad deeds themselves.

Kavanaugh may have been hit by that Truck LindseyGrahamSC, but then he lied out his ass, and blamed the Dems and Clintons. That doesn't sound like scotus material to me.

All public figures are at risk for allegations- most would request an investigation by FBI to clear things up quickly...

Not quite the problem. Yes, I know he lied about his drinking in school. Yes,he lied about the attack on Ford. He lied about the meaning of the Alumnius Club. But none of that really matters becas he showed true partisanship defending his innocence...too biased 4 Supreme Court.

If he didn’t lie about literally everything, he would have been fine

He was hit with the truth!

Graham told the truth. He was the Statesman. The D’s are lying hacks.

Is anyone ever surprised by anything any GOP politician ever says?

I wonder if the truck put a hand over his mouth when he tried to call for help.

42% of women elected a misogynist president and now feel metoo and women’s health and choice is more important than JudgeKavanaugh and Lyndsey Graham job interview performances. You get what you vote.

If by truck you actually mean truth:-)..

Graham: “I’m going to vote for him unless some bombshell comes out I didn’t know about”. Really?! You don’t say! You really seemed undecided about the decision before today!

Well Lindsey, then he's probs not good in the head after that Truck hit him, so I'd say he's unfit for the Supreme Court. StopKavanaugh

Graham is totally owned by someone. And I'm not sure he likes women. I think his time is up. Belongs to the Good Old Boys Club for too long. Those days are over!Impeach

"-load of booze", he continued.

garbage...what you saw is who he fundamentally is....unfit for the Supreme Court..

He was finally hit by the truth and you know what....

No Kavanaugh was the truck

And what truck were you hit by, LindseyGrahamSC ?

No ...he has years of being a PIG coming back to hit him.. LindseyGrahamSC

And she was assaulted by a brute. Come on, Lindsey.

Credit trump presidency trump has opened the door to such goings on!

Kavanagh sounded like a vengeful politician going after the other party. This isn’t the type of person we need on the Supreme Court. 👎Kavanagh

I agree!!!!!

He was hit by Karma.

She was only sexually assaulted LindseyGrahamSC Kavanaugh

If only

He doesn’t know what hit by a truck feels? He was caught in his own lies, and how dare a woman accuse him of anything, let alone Sexual abuse? You underscore how reality is seeing in the Senate? The men in the Senate are out of touch with the human issues of this country!

I'm beginning to wish you suffer the same fate.

sinaicedars Innocent in his own mind, as if famous in his own mind.

LindseyGrahamSC that’s because he dared to travel off the Trump Highway. The off road is dangerous and filled with honesty and justice. He should have known better.

Merick Garland

That’s the problem. It was kavanaugh’s fault for driving carelessly.

It was fully stocked.

Wish you were standing next to him.

“Too wooden” in the Fox interview, now he lacks judicial temperament for reacting boldly to BS accusations. DemocratPlaybook

It was produced and directed by the WH. Not even a good HS skit. Crying with no tears. LindseyGrahamSC seemed more believable as a crybaby, not as a leader. disgracefuldisplay

i've been hit by a truck. i can assure you it's not at all what happened to Kavanaugh, who could end his "torture" at any time by withdrawing from nomination.

You have been hit by a Blue Wave when you run for reelection.

Graham was hit by a Trump stick.

Better than being sexually assaulted.

How can he defend Kavanaugh lying under oath? Kavanaugh lied and gave a riduciulous expalantion of FFFF, MOV, Boof and Devil's Triangle, let Kavanaugh know we are NOT dumb & we saw through his STUPID explanations. FFFF a stuttering friend, really that's your best shot?

A truck of American Justice and now you want to know who leaked it

No one wants to hear your BS opinion LindseyGrahamSC. You have begun to think very highly of yourself & your “performances” for Trump. You’re at the point where folks are either ignoring you or laughing at you.

Thoughts and prayers,...just kidding, my thoughts are with detained immigrant children

Oh man I wish

That he was driving all by his raging self

Oh B.S. LindseyGrahamSC has really lost his mind. He's hitched his star to Trump. What will he get in return? Maybe the vice-presidential slot in 2020? It has to be more than attorney general. A pardon for something Putin has on him?

"This is the most unethical sham I have ever seen in politics,” Graham said, to Judiciary Committee’s Democrats. “And if you really wanted to know the truth, you sure as hell wouldn’t have done what you’ve done to this guy. Boy, y’all want power. God, I hope you never get it.”

To favor Kavanaugh (I'm a Dem) I would avoid being tribal, but would be favoring a Supreme Court nominee who, in my judgement is not fit because of lack of truthfulness plus excessive anger plus patterns of excessive alcohol consumption.

What nonsense! You're off the rails Lindsey, so far off now that you'll never find your way back.

In other words Dr. Ford is lying! Can’t wait to see what the investigation into your campaign finances come up with!

To expand on someone else: No,he was caught driving drunk in a stolen truck full of beer with a naked, bound women in the back.

Graham can relate , is he afraid his own past will come to light?

Here’s how we need to treat BK regarding his pleas for a break! Yep right! Hey BK ... Karma’s a bitch & now it’s your turn ... enjoy!!!

The truck of truth. Or was it the can of consequences?

“What you want to do is destroy this guy’s life, hold this seat open and hope you win in 2020,” Graham told the committee’s Democrats.

Supreme Court judges are expected to survive such 'hits'.

Lindsey, life comes at you fast

Democrats raped the rule of law!

He jumped in front of the truck.

Graham=Queen hyperbole

The only truck that hit him was the one that he was driving.

Poor Graham is making himself sick trying to please Trump. He is really becoming UNHINGED. Eventually Trump will bring him down in shame like all the others that cling to him.

Sit down LindseyGrahamSC Shut Up LindseyGrahamSC

Buttercup

victims be damned right Lindsey?

He was hit by a truck named truth.

I imagine Dr. Ford felt that way too
