After viewing the Senate hearing yesterday, I could only concur with one remark by Kavanaugh. It was indeed a national disgrace. As was Trump's speech before the United Nations General Assembly.
That said, it once again looks more likely that Kavanaugh will secure a seat on the United States Supreme Court. But, belying the short span of modern news cycles, I doubt that this story will quickly fade from memory.
What was played out yesterday on a world stage was the vision of a US government, indeed of the US nation, deeply divided. The communication gap was bitter and extreme. Ironic though it may be, the hearing gave proof to the concept of confirmation bias.
