It NEVER ends: Orrin Hatch outlines how the Democrats keep moving the goalposts on Kavanaugh

Sen. Orrin Hatch only needed six sentences to sum up how the Democrats’ delay tactics on Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court nomination are working perfectly.

Dems: Dr Ford deserves a hearing!
Republicans: Let’s have a hearing!
D’s: Bullies! This hearing is a sham!

D’s: We need an FBI investigation!
R’s: Ok we’ll have an FBI investigation.
D’s: This investigation is a farce!

The goalpost moving never stops.https://t.co/46AFBLy74S

Hatch was responding to Hawaii Democratic Sen. Mazie Hirono saying that the FBI background check into Kavanaugh may turn out to be a “farce.”

It’s because she KNOWS: Sen. Mazie Hirono’s non-denial about Dr. Ford’s letter is VERY telling https://t.co/VHQmlzHQ4Q pic.twitter.com/CmOG9sjUOB

Democrats have had a strategy and (thus far) worked it very effectively.

1. Declare Kavanaugh unacceptable the moment he’s nominated.

2. Withhold bombshell, uncorroborated allegation until after hearings.

3. Suggest he’s a predator & liar for days.

4. Declare him temperamentally unfit when he furiously responds to previous two steps.

And they have been so predictable in their responses.

If @ChuckGrassley and Senate Republicans are concerned a thorough FBI investigation would delay this confirmation process, remember that you refused to allow the Senate to consider Merrick Garland’s nomination for nearly a year.

There are two key differences between the Merrick Garland situation under Obama and Kavanaugh:

First, the Senate was controlled by the opposing party then, as opposed to now when Republicans have the Senate and the White House.

Second, it was a presidential election year, not a midterm election year.

Attention Senate Dems, here is what an FBI background check is and (more importantly) what it is NOT https://t.co/runiLx7eu8 pic.twitter.com/VltODnS1mB

Spoiler for the Republicans:  Democrats will NEVER be satisfied.
