.....
Kavanaugh is not on trial, so there is no presumption of innocence here. ....

I'm curious how and where that sort of world view came to your brain.

I don't agree with that view, at all.


I've been to quite a few job interviews, on both sides of the table. I have been kicked out and I have kicked candidates out for things that have nothing to do with breaking the law or being innocent or guilty. Not being fit for a job is not a crime. Expecting a SCOTUS nominee to be above reproach is fine too.

Not sure how that's relevant. It's a fact that Trump's nominees are mostly white straight Christian men, so if one of them turns out to be contemptible then it's a good chance it's going to be a white straight Christian man. This has nothing to do with them being constitutional scholars.
