In his most extensive comments thus far, Trump has just candidly weighed in on the phony Kavanaugh accusations and ripped Democrats for their ‘con game’ against Kavanaugh as they wink at each other, knowing it’s a con game.
Here are his full comments that run for about 4 minutes:
Below are a few highlights from Jake Tapper:
POTUS weighs in on the allegations against Judge Kavanaugh from his Yale classmate Deborah Ramirez: "Charges come up from 36 years ago that are totally unsubstantiated...she says it may not be him and there are gaps. And she was totally inebriated and all messed up,...

2/ "...and she doesn’t know. It might have been him, or it might have been him. Gee, let’s not make him a Supreme Court judge. This is a con game being played by the Democrats…

3/ "...It is a shame you can do this to a person’s life. I’ll tell you: Maybe even more important…Who is going to want to go before the system to be a Supreme Court judge or even a politician? I can tell you that false accusations of all type are made against a lot of people...

6/"...He has the chance to be one of the greatest justices in the United States Supreme Court. What a shame….His wife is devastated, his children are devastated. I don’t mean, ‘Oh gee, I am a little unhappy. They are devastated.’ And it is because of these Democrats."

I’m sure the media will jump all over Trump for what he said, but honestly I don’t think I heard anything I disagreed with. He didn’t exaggerate as he normally does. He just presented what we’ve all read about the accusers – especially the second one who admits it might not even have been Kavanaugh.
This is a con game by the Democrats who are doing everything they possibly can to derail Kavanaugh’s nomination to protect their sacred baby murdering factories.
