DEMS/NOMINATION/SUPREME COURT/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT/WOMEN: “President Donald Trump on Tuesday [9-25-18] lambasted Deborah Ramirez, the second woman to accuse Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of wrongdoing, saying ‘she was totally inebriated’ and ‘all messed up’ when the alleged incident occurred and that Democrats were playing a ‘con game’ by taking such accusations seriously. Ramirez told the New Yorker that when Kavanaugh was a freshman at Yale, he exposed himself at a dorm party and “thrust his penis in her face and caused her to touch it.” The magazine acknowledged in the story that she was drinking at the time and that she was initially uncertain of details of the story…Christine Blasey Ford is set to testify Thursday [9-27-18] to the Senate Judiciary Committee about her allegation that Kavanaugh assaulted her during a house party when they were both in high school. The White House said Tuesday that it would be open to hearing from Ramirez at the same time. Kavanaugh has maintained he did not commit either alleged assault and appeared on Fox News Monday [9-24-18] night with his wife to deny any sexual abuse claims.”
