@CillizzaCNN 1/ "...it does make for a very different situation than faces Kavanaugh." - yes, it's different because it's worse for Booker. Booker did it. Kavanaugh is accused. 
@CillizzaCNN 2/ "Kavanaugh has never mentioned the alleged episode with Ford publicly before. (Kavanaugh and his defenders would insist that's because he didn't do it.)" It could also be... **because he didn't do it**.
@CillizzaCNN 3/"That's not the situation in which Kavanaugh finds himself. He has been nominated to a lifetime appointment on the most powerful court in the country." You seriously believe if it was proven later that he was guilty & lied that he would not be impeached?
@CillizzaCNN 4/ "This is about Ford, Kavanaugh, and how we, together, figure out the right way forward."
Yeah, and one way to "together, figure out the right way forward" is to be consistent.
Yeah, and one way to "together, figure out the right way forward" is to be consistent.
@CillizzaCNN 5/ It's not "whataboutism". It's "why is Keith Ellison, #2 at DNC and running for attorney general not facing the same scrutiny and not being called on by Democrats to step down?"
@CillizzaCNN 6/ I vehemently oppose Ellison, but am not ready to condemn him based on the allegations against him yet. Still too many unanswered questions. Calling for consistency is not being partisan or whataboutism. It's wanting to stand on principle and not pragmatism.
