Did you hear? Today, Donald Trump totally busted Brett Kavanaugh for committing perjury. Resistance journo John Aravosis is all over it:

"I drank too much."
"See, he's lying about drinking too much!" https://t.co/M09HPL9VLW— Jim Treacher (@jtLOL) October 1, 2018
So. Saying I drank beer is now a lie about drinking beer. Well done.

Um he literally said sometimes he drank too much.

You're so full of it. "sometimes I drank too much" OH NO THAT'S PERJURY RIGHT!? That's because it doesn't meet your definition of what you want his drinking to be.

Nope. Kavanaugh already said be sometime drank too much beer. Just stop with this ridiculous parsing of words. #ConfirmJudgeKavanaugh

But if he can’t parse words, then what’s the point of any of this?
What, specifically, did Kavanaugh say that supposedly contradicts what Trump said? https://t.co/d8UEYSktxB

You didnt read. Trump is saying that Kavanaugh admitted to having a drinking problem. Kavanaugh admitted no such thing. https://t.co/wfF4KqAEDT

Ohhhh … wait, no. We’re still not seeing anything here.
This is what your tweet said:
"Trump says Kavanaugh had a drinking problem as a kid. Contradicting Kavanaugh’s claims in the Judiciary Committee under oath."
Maybe you didn't tweet what you intended to, but I read your tweet just fine. Thanks. https://t.co/6IBBVMDgMx

We read it, too. And it’s a piping-hot nothingburger.
Besides which. . . that's clearly Trump's impression, not a fact. . .JFC these people. . .
