"She only drank one beer": Trump mocks Kavanaugh accuser Christine Ford after being praised for not attacking her testimony
President Donald Trump mocked his Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh's accuser Christine Blasey Ford on Tuesday by saying that she does not remember anything about her alleged assault except for the information that "she only drank one beer." The president continued to say that Kavanaugh's life is in "tatters" because of Ford's accusation.
Trump's statement came shortly after people were marveling at how well he handled the Ford hearing and did not attack her, with a CNN article saying that 'Aides Quietly Stunned by Trump’s Respectful Handling of Kavanaugh Accuser.' The astonishment, if any, was short-lived after the president did exactly what his aides were afraid of and called Kavanaugh's accusers "really evil people" who are out to "destroy" his Supreme Court nominee's life.
