Not approvals or disapprovals, except in the case of Heitkamp who put aside reelection concerns in order to do what she thought was right. Everything else was just observations.
I think the Dems (minus Manchin) voted as a block not because they were told to, but because they felt this process was all wrong from the beginning.
I am sure something happened to Dr. Ford at the time she said it happened, and her imperfect memory of it is consistent with how survivors of a traumatic experience recall what happened - it's not absolutely going to be perfect (and I would be suspicious of her if it were). I'm also convinced that she didn't misremember who was responsible. We may never know, because of that sham of an "investigation" - it's really, really difficult to find corroborating evidence when you won't talk to potential corroborating witnesses. As soon as I heard that the WH was in control. I knew it was going to be a waste of time. |
