Whether you believed her or not, whether she was assaulted or not, whether she was unambiguously offered the chance to testify in California or Washington or Timbuktu, Christine Blasey Ford made one thing painfully clear in her testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday, and that was her genuine, almost desperate desire to please.
It was heartbreaking to watch — as heartbreaking, in its way, as her testimony itself.She wanted to be liked. The Democrats want to be liked. Republicans want to win.
Ford and Kavanaugh, Democrats and Republicans: couples, abusers and victims, all of them with money to spare.
