Letter: I want no part of Trump’s apology to Kavanaugh

Said President Donald Trump to Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh “On behalf of our nation, I want to apologize to Brett, etc. etc.”

Do not add me to that apology. I am a citizen of the United States and no way do I want to be included in that apology.

Trump has done a great disservice to all women in America by saying those words. Especially to the women (and men) who have been sexually abused in one way or another.

I truly believe that Kavanaugh was so intoxicated at the time that he blacked out all those events. An alcoholic can drink enough to cause blackouts and not remember what they did.

I am under the opinion that the investigation was not thorough enough and was rushed through because of Trump’s insistence. After watching Kavanaugh’s performance at his testimony, he acted like a spoiled rich child whose parents always came to his defense.

Wake up, America, and vote your conscience in November. I know I will.
