Once again, President Dotard is proving that there is no bottom to the swamp in which he dwells, this time firing off his Twitter shots at Brett Kavanaugh’s alleged victim. Christine Blasey Ford, who has accused Kavanaugh, Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee, of sexually assaulting her when they were both teenagers more than 30 years ago, has been looking to testify before the Senate Judiciary committee, once they provide her with assurances for her safety. Ford came forward with her identity and her story last weekend, and has been subjected to all sorts of scrutiny, as well as support, often tugging at political lines. Democrats have argued for the indefinite delay of Kavanaugh’s confirmation until a full investigation can be had, and the allegations can be fully examined, while Republicans have accused Democrats of trying to stall on Trump’s pick. In between all of this, Trump has been defending his boy Kavanaugh, calling him an “outstanding” judge. But then, on Friday morning, he full on attacked Ford, insinuating that if the alleged assault was “as bad as she says”, she would have gone to the authorities long ago. “I have no doubt that, if the attack on Dr. Ford was as bad as she says, charges would have been immediately filed with local Law Enforcement Authorities by either her or her loving parents. I ask that she bring those filings forward so that we can learn date, time, and place!,” Trump tweeted. He also questioned why “radical left” lawyers didn’t involve someone in the case 36 years ago. But what can you expect from a president who acknowledged that he likes to just “grab them by the pussy”? It’s not like he knows what victims of assault go through mentally. Also, what can you expect from a president who is, for all intents and purposes, illiterate. When explaining her story to the Washington Post over the weekend, Ford clearly recalled being in denial about what happened to her, and feared the situation being misunderstood. “My biggest fear was, do I look like someone just attacked me?” she said, adding that she remembered thinking, “I’m not ever telling anyone this. This is nothing, it didn’t happen, and he didn’t rape me.” Then again I doubt Trump reads, let alone reads the Washington Post.
