Human windsock retiring Sen. Jeff Flake, who delivers impassioned critiques of Trump and the lack of civility in politics only to vote for Trump's policies, said the following today about raging butthead and accused drunken sexual assaulter Brett "KavaNut" Kavanaugh's meltdown in last Thursday's hearing:
“'I was very troubled by the tone of the remarks,' Flake said of Kavanaugh’s testimony. 'The initial defense that Judge Kavanaugh gave was something — like I told my wife I hoped I wouldn’t sound that indignant if I felt that I was unjustly maligned.'Unfortunately with Flake, there's always "the other hand," so we don't know if this is an indicator of his position on KavaNut's nomination, or whether it's one of his pious smokescreens. We suppose that we should hope this is a signal to human/turtle hybrid and evil stooge Sen. Mitch "Missy" McConnell that Flake's a likely "no" vote. Call us cynical, but he's set us up before with his theatrics, so we'll wait for the FBI results and the vote.
'But then it went on,' he pointed out. 'And the interaction with the members was sharp and partisan. And that concerns me. And I tell myself you give a little leeway because of what he’s been through.'
Flake added: 'On the other hand, we can’t have this on the court. We simply can’t.'” (our emphasis)
