RE: Putrid Politics: False Accusations
Ah, but you see what I am referring to, don't you? Judges recuse themselves in cases involving them personally, because they can't be expected to be unbiased on them. And yet, people are considering a scenario where he was being accused of sexual assault, alcoholism, even gangrape, on a national stage with very little evidence beyond accusations, as an example of him being unbiased and emotional. That's objectively unfair; it's like saying a surgeon doesn't perform well because he is imprecise when digging a bullet out of himself in some extreme situation.
False accusations themselves have a history of being highly profitable and effective at destroying people. One need look no further than Ford's GoFundMe having raised over six hundred THOUSAND dollars, and the fact that the political motivations were clear. How were the political motivations clear, you might ask? She was being advised not by therapists or law enforcement, but Democrat funded lawyers. I think even is she herself was completely sincere, she was still being used as a political prop. Memory after thirty years is known to be highly undependable as well as pliable to suggestion.
We see the effects even now. You called him a severe misogynist with poor judgement, an angry temperament, and a record of perjury, despite the evidence against Ford her story even as presented doesn't add up. You even admit that the only knowledge of him committing perjury you know of is this hearing alone, where he was being accused of all kinds of heinous behavior. Overall, his character has already been assassinated without proper evidence, and I find that reprehensible.
The investigation of the President is another great example of this dangerous tactic. There has been absolutely no evidence found that the sitting President did anything illegal with Russia to steal the election, and yet it is being bandied about as evidence he is illegitimate. Do you see how this works? Those opposing Trump don't need tangible evidence to use this as a weapon. If Trump fires Mueller, it will be seen as obstruction. Mueller won't end the investigation because people will demand evidence of wrongdoing, and claim he was blackmailed or obstructed if he doesn't produce any. They are using this investigation, started under shady pretenses via the Steele Dossier that has it's own very sketchy origins, to attempt stymieing his administration. This is not how government is supposed to work.
All the best to you, though. I'm glad I got a civil response from someone, though I'm still expecting a less respectful response to pop up from someone who reads this.
