Just like Merrick Garland?
Obviously, what happened to Garland was a purely political move by the GOP. However, they didn't accuse him of assaulting women. They just denied him a hearing. The American people, in free and open elections, chose to give Senate control to the Republicans. I think it's fair to assume that they didn't do so, to let Obama tilt the court to the left. If we wanted that, we would have left senate control in the hands of the democrats.

Even Ginsberg spoke out against Kavanaugh's hearings.
