For Team Trump, the ongoing focus on Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh is a political gift
President Donald Trump, like most of the conservative sphere, is riled up about the treatment of Justice Brett Kavanaugh a year after the judge’s hyper-polarizing confirmation hearings.
“They’ve hurt that man and his family so badly. He has been just really devastated by the hurt that’s been caused to him, his beautiful daughters, his fantastic wife,” the president told reporters. “He’s a good man. That wasn’t supposed to be in the cards.” By signing up you agree to receive email newsletters or alerts from POLITICO. You can unsubscribe at any time.
The Kavanaugh allegations continue to carry such weight because they will set the tone for the next Supreme Court vacancy and nomination process regardless of the president in office. Still, conservatives warn they are prepared to mobilize if the Kavanaugh narrative continues. “It is a huge, huge threat to our whole constitutional structure,” said David McIntosh, president of the Club for Growth and a co-founder of the Federalist Society. Such smear tactics have “to be stopped. Groups like ours will absolutely develop plans to counter it.”

Ivanka Trump, Kim Kardashian & Siobhan Roy's Succession HaircutI don’t mean to oversimplify, but you’d think that rich women have it pretty easy these days! No matter how sad an heiress or CEO might be, their wealth affords them an indescribable level of luxury. When they’re feeling down, they can, hypothetically, take private jets to various remote islands and post bikini photos with their venture capitalist boyfriends. If the world were to end and everyone they loved perished in the literal fires of climate change, money would grant them access to the austere solitude of palatial underground compounds in New Zealand.
