Brett Kavanaugh makes me think of Dustin Hoffman in The Graduate, valedictorian, captain of the team, private school, Yale graduate. He even looks like Dustin Hoffman.
But then instead of suffering what does it all mean 60s angst and throwing it all away for love, he stays on track, lives an impeccably square life and is nominated for the Supreme Court.
And what is his reward for being so good, so careful, so perfect for his entire life? He is accused, without any evidence, of attempted rape, indecent exposure, and plying women with alcohol and drugs to make them victims of gang rape.
If, instead of doing everything he was supposed to do, he had misspent his youth like I did, none of this would be happening to him.
Looks like he’ll make it onto the Court, but for the rest of his life millions of people will believe all of this crap about him is true. I predict that he and Clarence Thomas will become good friends.
