Obvious questions for Christine Blasey Ford:

- Why were you and your husband in couples therapy?
- Why did this accusation come up for the first time in couples therapy?
- Did your husband pressure you to come forward now?

#ConfirmKavanaugh

Christine Blasey Ford and her husband were married in 2002.

The first time she told *anyone* "of the incident in any detail" was 2012.

She kept this from her husband for OVER TEN YEARS OF MARRIAGE.

And then it came up - in couples therapy.

#ConfirmKavanaugh

This is my thesis (and to be clear this is just me extrapolating from public info)

I think Christine Blasey Ford fabricated this story in 2012 to save her marriage.

It explains why the details of who was present have shifted.
It explains why she did not give specifics as to time/place.
It explains why she didn't mention it for 30 years.
It explains why she sent an anonymous letter.
It explains why she doesn't want to testify under oath.

It explains why she wiped her social media accounts.
It explains why her lawyer said it's Brett Kavanaugh's responsibility to "prove it didn't happen."
It explains why everyone she says was present has categorically denied any knowledge of the party she describes.

It also explains her motivation for lying - in 2012.

People are using the 2012 therapists notes' as evidence she is not lying today.

But really - do you think this would be the first time someone lied in couples therapy to save their marriage?
