To laughter and applause, President Trump mocked Christine Blasey Ford at a rally in Mississippi. Ford has testified in detail to what she alleges was Brett Kavanaugh’s attempt to rape her and her fear he would suffocate her before she could escape.

She remembers every detail of the assault and she only had one drink.but nothing else about that day how convenient. How would you feel if it was Three drinks. She changed her story. She didn’t release the entire poly test and many requests from Grassley. Nothing to hide

The Audience was not laughing at Professor Ford’s fear nor accusation. Donald Trump raised his hand, his really really like his really really big like his really really big a ... and they saw his toddler size hand. They were laughing at him.

A mockery would be a character assault . DT very soberly highlighted the specific points of Blasey’s complete bastardization of Due Process.

Mocked No! Just stated factually what she said. People laughed on how ludicrous her testimony was. Fact! Show me the evidence, and I'll agree to the crime.

That was pretty darn funny!!!! But when Melania or Baron, or any of the Trump family are attacked and mocked by late night comedy, you hear nothing but crickets from this piece of crap, fake news, news paper.

he mocked the situation when an allegation is missing a key evidence, like date and place, but still is investigated because it sounds 'believable'

Trump should not have mocked her. That was wrong, but Dr. Ford's credibility is shaky. I do believe she has been molested, but she lies which weakens her credibility and thus her allegation. Sad and bad behavior by many.

I swear he was raised by wolves. Most people raised their children not to behave like that.

Hold up, Sen.McConnell - you are supposed to protect the Constitution, right? Having a loose cannon like Kavanaugh on the SC kinda goes against that, don't you think? Some 40 people have come forward. Let's hear what they have to say.

Remember, it is his Mississippi base where sexual assault is still a nightly drinking game… Like beer pong...with their relatives...

WomansMarch IBelieveHer

The grotesque conservative.

what about the clip I found that you forgot to scrub off Facebook that she wants Justice Scalia ban from law? Does the clintons want to come and murder me and Rule it out as a suicide I dare them could use the life insurance funds it pays double for murder once it's proven

False. He was pointing out all of the HOLES in her testimony. FakeNews This is why realDonaldTrump will win again.

There you go again. He wasn’t mocking her. He was merely pointing out the inconsistencies in her story. In other words, he was doing YOUR JOB !

So it's okay when SNL mocked Kavanaugh? It's okay when ChrisBritt, cartoonist from IllinoisTimes mocked Kavanaugh's daughter praying in a cartoon? That's about as low as it gets. I'm sure ChristineBlaseyFord is laughing all the way to the bank. Gofundme

Who is to say she is not the liar?

In Facebook she testified that she wants Justice Scalia ban from law does she remember? I have a clip of that on Instagram I guess you must have forgot to scrub it off Facebook like she did everything else Family Ties to the swamp

Without a single piece of corroboration, and he testified it was all a lie.

Finally Conservatives are growing a backbone! As testified by the audience response to the TRUE statements spoken by the President at the Mississippi Rally. Kavanaugh's public lynching is eerily like lynchings in old South based ONLY on one woman's word.

Brett Kavanaugh's past indiscretions and drinking habits are not of importance n neither, really, is Ford's testimony. Kavanaugh has has committed perjury and that is a felony (of at least a year in prrison) in this country.

give it up...

SHE IS A LIAR. WHAT DETAILS

She mocked herself. The only people who are supposed to believe her are Democrat voters. I GUARANTEE you that even the Democratic Senators don’t believe her. She’s a tool for the fools.

Disgusting what people have become

I wish he would have done her voice.

It was inappropriate. I agree. But your failure to use journalistic writing is also inappropriate.

Evidence please!

Most details appear to be foggy and rape was never suggested. Only by unprofessional tabloids like the Times.

Mississippi: Like Florida, but without the charm.

She deserves to be mocked. Shes a liar.

The GOP are fine with white teenagers committing sexual assault?

All unfounded. No evidence. You don't convict on the basis of unsubstantiated allegations.
