I agree with virtually everything you've said. I guess my complaint remains with the left and right who make outlandish claims, distort, and both maintain attitudes of self righteousness-no pun intended. There were many sad moments by senators from both parties during the hearing. GOP, led by Trump,allegedly want to keep the rancor and bitterness going to "energize their base." Dems, of course, will overreact, take the bait and the rancor will live on.
