BERNIE SANDERS/BRETT KAVANAUGH/DEMS/GOP/SUPREME COURT/TRUMP PEOPLE: “Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont said Wednesday [10-3-18] that he believed the Supreme Court was headed for a legitimacy crisis after Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh accused Democrats at a hearing last week of seeking revenge on behalf of the Clintons and of animus toward President Trump. In an interview with Alexander Burns of The New York Times, Mr. Sanders, an independent who caucuses with the Democrats, said Judge Kavanaugh had exposed himself as a ‘right-wing Republican’ who ‘thinks the Democrats are against him’…Mr. Sanders spoke candidly about that concern and others in a wide-ranging interview at the University of Maryland, where he also repeatedly urged college students in the audience (and watching on live streams) to register and vote in the midterms. The conversation was part a series called Get With The Times, which aims to inspire students to become involved in issues that matter to them.”
