Why is it always sexual misconduct? Why never other illegal acts?

Why not coca in use? Mail fraud? Extortion?

Why is it always he said/she said alleged sexual misconduct?

They're riding public hysteria.

Because he said/she said makes it almost impossible to prove innocence.

Because it’s so shocking.

I also think there’s a perverse delight from these jackals in projecting their own bacchanalia onto candidates who have lived moral lives.

As for drugs, our last 4 Presidents have probably used cocaine. People don't really care imo.

Ford said she was afraid Kavanaugh might kill her when he was covering her mouth. So why isn't he being accused of attempted murder?

This. Working the hysteria angle.

They think that is kryptonite for any Republican - the mere hint of anything like this.

I guess they forgot when they tried it in 2016 against Trump - and it fell flat.

Republicans should stay strong. Collins isn't stupid enough to buy any of this at this point and they should just hear Ford out and have the vote on Thursday. The more they entertain this literal nonsense, the more they'll have to deal with - they'll roll ANOTHER Yale classmate next week who will suddenly recall a drunken party where Kavanaugh was there and a puppy was killed - and now that she's been thinking about Kavanaugh since he's in the news now, she's almost certain he killed that puppy in 1983. Or 1985. Not 100%.

I think they may have miscalculated that one.

Next it will be shoplifting at 19, hot checks at 21, and beating up a Homo at 23. Kav did all these things. He even wanted the New England Patriots to not use the name Patriots, but Justice Warriors.

Other illegal acts are typically a lot easier to prove. Sexual misconduct usually takes place in a private setting.

Projection. Always projection.

These folks are narcissists and it’s what they do. Gaslighting and projection.

Why would you use a word like that on a board like this.

Because sexual misconduct is about the ‘victims’ perception. Anyone can be targeted by it because everyone acts upon sexual urges. There are no written consent forms. Can’t prove willingness. It’s an ugly name to wear.
