Hatch is playing the "boys will be boys" card again. Has anyone explained to him that it's sexist as fuck to do that?

Crimes committed by Muslims will be proof of a pan-Islamic plot and Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand, crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of mentally ill lone wolves who do not represent their professed belief system at all.
The probability of someone secretly participating in homosexual acts is directly proportional to the frequency and loudness of their publicly professed disapproval and/or disgust for homosexuality.
If Donald Trump accuses an individual of malfeasance without evidence, it is almost a certainty either he or someone associated with him has in fact committed that very same malfeasance to a greater degree.

There’s playing politics, and unethically degrading the dignity of the office. The Dems have been doing the latter.

How does a guy who went to an all-boys Catholic high school even meet 65 different girls, much less have developed a close enough bond for them to each be able to honestly vouch for his character? Shit, I went to coed high schools, and hung out with plenty of girls at all of them, and I could probably only barely have 65 women from them who would vouch for me if asked.

So what if they do? Even if they lose the Senate they'll still have 2.5 months of a lame duck Senate to get him passed. So really, what does it matter?
