once. the obama administration put out an unprecedented statement from the department of homeland security and the intelligence community declaring that the russian government was behind the hacking of the democratic party and the public distribution of those hacked e-mails to try to warp our presidential election, and then wikileaks started releasing the e-mails that russian intelligence had stolen from the clinton campaign. and, of course, the access hollywood tape came out, the grab em by the that tape. where the president the future president of the united states was heard on tape bragging about how he was able to get away with sexually assaulting women because when you re a star, they let you. and a lot of people thought that would be the end of the trump campaign. of course, that was only the beginning. this weekend will mark two years since the day the access hollywood tape came out. it s almost become a point of pride in the trump campaign.
clinton campaign. and, of course, the access hollywood tape came out, the grab em by the that tape. where the president the future president of the united states was heard on tape bragging about how he was able to get away with sexually assaulting women because when you re a star, they let you. and a lot of people thought that would be the end of the trump campaign. of course, that was only the beginning. this weekend will mark two years since the day the access hollywood tape came out. it s almost become a point of pride in the trump campaign. when trump campaign veterans look back at this anniversary, as they certainly will this weekend, they look back at it now as the moment when you either became a trumpie or you unfortunately decided that you couldn t be one. it was sort of a trial by fire date for them, in a good way. well, this weekend, on the occasion of that anniversary, the senate is all but certain to

judge kavanagh. they aren t projecting this outwardly. they are preparing for plan b. nobody knows what plan b is at the moment. robert. real quick, my senate republican sources tell me a week is a long time between now and monday. they wonder if senators are going to get cold feet about kavanagh coming to the hill having that kind of testimony, having dr. ford come forward with her testimony. that is a scene republicans don t want two months before the election. robert costa, that was ill luis palomino nating. appreciate that. coming up, caught on tape bragging about assaulting women has yet another me too meltdown on his hands. a look at kavanagh s accuser and what changed since the last time we were here with clarence thomas and anita hill.
