Some of you will be disappointed and angry with me, but here it goes: I’m not sure what Brett Kavanaugh allegedly did as a 17-year-old should automatically disqualify him for the U.S. Supreme Court.

As you’ve undoubtedly heard by now, Christine Blasey Ford, a psychologist in California, has accused Kavanaugh of sexual assault when both were teenagers in the early 1980s. Reports The Washington Post:

While his friend watched, she said, Kavanaugh pinned her to a bed on her back and groped her over her clothes, grinding his body against hers and clumsily attempting to pull off her one-piece bathing suit and the clothing she wore over it. When she tried to scream, she said, he put his hand over her mouth.
