And for the Democrat comment... anyone who sexually assaults or harasses someone deserves to face the consequences, regardless of their politics. That seems to be the biggest difference between the two sides on this topic - one party condemns all of the behaviour and hold themselves to an better standard (see: resignation of Senator Al Franken (D)) and one only condemns it if it was a member of the opposition party who may have committed such an act.
Some water muddying going on too - new allegations that seem very uncredible (presumably with the aim of making the originals seem uncredible) and two anonymous men have been found who have suddenly decided to say that they were the ones who actually assaulted Ford (that never happens in sexual assault cases).

I don't really know why the Republicans are pushing so hard for Bart O'Kavanaugh when they didn't want him in the first place. He was Trump's choice because 45 thinks he will stand up for him in the witch hunt. The GOP wanted other judges. It would have made their lives easier to get the safer ones in but they probably can't back down now. They've made it very ugly.
