The left has ‘jumped the shark,’ the right says

By Bria Felicien

1. Democrats Have Already Jumped the Shark on Judge Kavanaugh

From The Daily Beast: "Screaming that Trump's Supreme Court nominee is evil incarnate may make folks feel good. But it doesn't make it true. And it's surely not effective."

2. Don't place all your hopes — or fears — on a new Supreme Court justice

From The Hill: "Like all people, judges are complex."

3. Democrats are absolutely desperate to keep Kavanaugh off the Supreme Court – and it's hurting our country

From Fox News: "Yet Democrats have declared war on President Trump's nominee, even though voters who elected Trump did so in part because he promised to pick Supreme Court justices from a list of outstanding candidates that he made public."

ExploreThe right ‘should be repulsed,’ the left says
