In his prepared remarks defending himself against the charges during his Senate confirmation hearings in 2018, Kavanaugh specifically mentioned the Clintons. I wondered what evidence he had. I thought, as an excellent jurist as he seems to be, he surely would not lodge unfounded accusations, especially in a nationally televised (and very heated) procedure. But I don’t remember the evidence. I also wondered whether he was defending himself a bit more emotionally than rationally (and who could have blamed him!). Reading this, things click for me much better, as it was not smear campaigning against him in 2018. The history of shenanigans is very long.
