Jimmy Kimmel ripped Republican cowards for refusing to question Christine Blasey Ford — and then angrily defending Brett Kavanaugh once she was out of the room.
The GOP majority on the Senate Judiciary Committee brought Arizona prosecutor Rachel Mitchell to cross-examine Ford about hr rape allegations against the Supreme Court nominee, and Kimmel said the alleged victim was “exceptionally believable.”
“Even the gang at Fox News agreed that she was believable,” Kimmel said. “She was everything the Democrats hoped she would be. She was polite, likable, well-spoken. And maybe more than anything — it was striking to see someone questioned before the Senate who actually answered questioned. I think that’s a first.”
“Once Dr. Ford was safely out of the room,” he continued, “Lindsey Graham really laid down the law. He warned Democrats that if this is the new normal, if this is the way it’s going to go, they better watch out for their own Supreme Court nominees, as if Merrick Garland isn’t out there somewhere judging a dog show right now.”
