Do you think there’s enough evidence to be suspicious or even condemn him?
No. Something like that would've been extremely hard to prove the day after it happened, good fucking luck finding something 36 years later. With that said, he's innocent until proven guilty and all the people saying that doesn't matter because it's not an actual trial can piss off, it's the principle/idea/spirit of the thing.

I mean he clearly did it,
but the main reason he should've been denied for the position was the way he handled the accusations. The entitled anger of a rich white boy who's never known real consequences his entire life. And then 3 days later he tries to apologise for his emotional behaviour. People who have known abusive people in their own lives can see this behaviour coming from miles away; act abusive, then apologise and victimise yourself to make the actual victim feel sorry for you. He's unfit for the position regardless of the allegations' truth.
Peterson had an interesting take on this (that he's now getting flak for from his fellow conservatives) that if Kavanaugh was truly right for the job, upon confirmation, he should have stepped down knowing how polarising he was. This would've have cleared his reputation in most people's eyes and have worked to lessen the divide between parties right now. But no, he knows the only reason he's there is to push the "Trump can pardon himself" initiative knowing that there will most likely be a democratic senate come December that will push to impeach.
The only reason he’s the nominee is because he’s the only one who’s gonna make sure that even if trump gets impeached he won’t have to go to prison. Or do you think trump isn’t guilty of several crimes too?
Are you going to vote republican this midterm to make sure he can install his dictatorship?
More than anything else, I'm upset that we've sworn in a partisan judge. Which should just be not be a thing, especially when it's a lifelong position.

As soon as I heard him wave away all of the accusations as a conspiracy generated as "revenge for the Clintons" I stopped thinking he should have the seat. Judges will have conservative or liberal inclinations (whether slight or riding the margins) but they shouldn't be a part of the partisan circus. Now the Supreme Court, the last branch of the government that the people had faith in, has fallen to the swamp in D.C. just like the other two.

Seems like everyone is becoming heavily tribal and moderates are becoming more and more ostracized for committing to remain impartial.
I like how you can say that without proof.
You're right, he shouldn't have gotten angry. I mean it's not like the main opposition against him getting the position is a bogus story from 36 years ago saying he's sexually harassed someone. Yeah, I can't possibly see why he would be mad over that.
And abusive behavior? Come on, this is ridiculous and you know it. He was angry, and rightfully so, and you think that's a sign of him being abusive?
Even if he didn't get the job but his name was cleared, the damage has already been done, he can't go anywhere in public without people going "Oh he's that rapist" not just him but his family has to deal with the shit as well. We'd all be pretty fucking angry if we were in his position and anyone saying they wouldn't be is bullshitting.
I like Peterson
If he's completely right for the job why shouldn't he keep his position?
All him stepping down would do is appease the people who have worked nonstop for the last month to drag his name through the mud.
Anyone Trump nominates is going to go through just as much of a shit show and the seat would be left vacant until who the fuck knows. That's not fair to the people qualified who might be nominated, it's not fair to the Senate (both parties) having to repeat the whole process, and it's not fair to the American people having to watch it.

Why don’t you answer what I’m asking you instead of pretending to be Lindsey Graham.
This is about getting trump out of office. He’s a criminal. He’s a traitor. This is way beyond partisanship, it’s about our democracy.

Kavanaugh was only chosen because he said the President could pardon himself in the event he gets impeached
