Democrats assumed Republican women would play into their identity politics instead of seeking truth, and that assumption is blowing up in their faces.
Many conservative women see an eminently qualified Supreme Court nominee standing his ground, while duly elected members of the Senate attempt to destroy his life and prevent him from serving on the nation’s highest court.
These women are furious about the behavior of the left, and they don’t intend to stand for it.
While women on the right are resentful of the treatment of Kavanaugh, they listened to Christine Blasey Ford’s allegation and testimony. These women simply want fair treatment of the accused as well, and ask for proof before condemnation.
Hashtags like #BelieveWomen, and #BelieveSurvivors certainly seem to carry a positive tone of rallying around the abused, but their implication of “Believe everyone, no matter what” is terrifying to its core.
The concept of believing anyone without corroborating evidence is against the fabric of this nation, and didn’t sit well with a lot of women in this country.
Emily Yoffe pointed out in The Atlantic the inherent issues with the movement to flatly believe all women. “If believing the woman is the beginning and the end of a search for the truth, then we have left the realm of justice for religion,” she wrote.
Kavanaugh is just a taste of what life could be like if the wrong people are elected to represent them. It became clear to women on the right that Democrats manipulated the political climate in an attempt to gain favor in the midterm elections.
The left may have again been fooled into forgetting how many conservative women live in America, an error in thinking that will very likely cost them in November.

Live Nation has announced that "An Evening with President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton" will be appearing in 13 cities, despite protests and outrage by victims of sexual assault.
Despite that, @LiveNation claims that the tour by an alleged rapist will feature "stories and inspiring anecdotes that shaped their historic careers in public service."
There seems to be no strategy (there ISN’T) other than Trump rage, and despite going nuclear on a man's life, they just can't win. theamericanconservative.com/articles/democ…
The soiled Brett Kavanaugh confirmation process put Democratic strategy for the 2018 midterms in plain view. The question is: will what hasn’t worked to date do any better for the Dems a month from now?
This week’s FBI investigation was never going to turn up any new information. Apart from liberal Twitter, who are all apparently trauma memory experts (last week they were scholars of perjury law), most normal people have a hard time conjuring details from long ago.
“...worst of all for Democrats is the fact that the midterm elections are now 29 days off. That’s just 696 hours away, using simple math. Democratic panic is escalating, even as some surprising positive news coverage about Mr. Trump emerges from unlikely sources...”
... such as an accounting of Mr. Trump’s “winning streak” from CNN:
“Trump may have never had a better time being President.”
Jamie Lee Curtis Links (Fictional) Stalking By Knife-Wielding Psycho to Kavanaugh bit.ly/2zYy3Sw
Appearing on The View, Curtis said the heroine of Halloween is a woman who suffered “trauma at 17, like Ford when she was 17.” Trying to make the connection, the actress touted the topicality of the new Halloween: “It’s actually about something. The movie is about trauma.”
She clarified, “Because, what happened to Laurie Strode when she was 17 — it is fiction. I want everyone to understand that I’m not saying that this happened to me.”
No, the Trump administration never predicted 7 degrees of global warming washex.am/2CyjSpF
Last Friday, the @washingtonpost printed a fake news whopper: “ Trump administration sees a 7-degree rise in global temperatures by 2100.”
Within the blink of an eye, several other media outlets ran the story, spreading a false story like a forest fire. The New York Post, for example, published an article titled, “ Trump administration says climate change will make Earth a living hell by 2020.”
Looking forward to your tweet ‘eloquently’ telling GOP/GOP voters “FUCK. YOU. ALL. TO. HELL.” I cheer a sane GOP protecting presumption of innocence that Dems disdain. Dems are the party of angry, violent, bullying, deranged psycho mobs #ItCanHappenToYou
The blatant hypocrisy of Dems who say #BelieveAllWomen don’t believe @KeithEllison’s accuser, @RepKihuen ‘s accuser, @BobMenendezNJ sex with underage girls, and more. They want Dems elected no matter what-and in doing so, they say “Screw #MeToo “
