This extraordinary 2 minutes of Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee is all you need to know about his presidency
This clip of Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee, Judge Brett Kavanaugh, went viral because his refusal to answer a simple yes/no question about Robert Mueller’s investigation into alleged Russia collusion is just extraordinary.
This is insane. This guy being a judge of any kind *now* is insane, much less getting the Supreme Court job for life pic.twitter.com/mPu5zZoBXd

Here it is.
.@KamalaHarris: “Have you discussed Mueller or his investigation with anyone at the law firm of President Trump’s personal lawyer?”
Kavanaugh DOES NOT deny it. pic.twitter.com/3qyL8rw0pr

And this is what people made of it.
“Could you please tell me whether you’ve got the receipts before I answer?”

my favorite part of this is kavanaugh pretending like he’s trying to sound out the word “kasowitz” for the first time like it hasn’t been in every other news article for the past year https://t.co/lY8dsDfJfl

More gripping in 2 minutes than most political dramas are in a whole series https://t.co/mxr5ScDAhS

“I think you’re thinking of someone & you don’t want to tell us.” Took me clean out 😂

That question at 1:53 ad kavanaugh's pause afterwards. I think you're thinking of someone and you don't want to tell us… pic.twitter.com/dvEDOxXv9c
