Has this been proven?
He did mock her testimony, but I assume you are alluding to the sexual assault?

The honest answer is no, but then the FBI investigation was seriously hampered by the White House, for reasons we can only speculate.

Having said that, House Republicans said in open session that there is no doubt that she was sexually assaulted, but no proof it was Kavenaugh (despite his lies and obfuscation under questioning).
 
For a long time I've defended the way you think, though not always what you think. Now I see you are just arguing for argument's sake. You are a dog chasing your tail. You are a waste of time. I perceive you are so desperate to "win" an argument that you have to even argue that even after hundreds of lies I am somehow a deficient human if I don't stop and re-evaluate each statement and action of his fresh as if there was no history. Not only is this impractical and completely lacking in common sense, but it's utterly laughable that somehow you feel your ability to do same (suuuuurrrrrreeeeee) makes you somehow superior to everyone else.

The reason this is so fucking stupid is that I GET ONE VOTE, NOT HUNDREDS. That one vote isn't based on one action, or the last thing he said, not if I am doing my job as a citizen, but all of his words and actions on balance. I've already made my decision once; maybe something will change that, but he has a hill to climb with me. A hill like Olympus Mons.

And arguing with you feels like the same climb. So long.

Because the WAY that you're doing it is wrong. I'm not saying don't use your own opinion of the man, I'm saying don't make it your starting point.

It's like Hitler. Hitler said loads of agreeable things that most people in the world would agree with. But if you dismiss literally everything he ever said or did because Hitler said it then you're not considering things properly.

You should be looking at a policy, looking at the statements and justifications about it in good faith, looking at the counter argument in good faith then deciding where you land. THEN add in your opinion of the personalities involved and their truth factor.

When you start with the personalities then you firstly lose access to around half of the ideas in society, and secondly your starting point shapes the end result.

That's not critical thinking.
