Assume, for intellectual purposes, that Kavanaugh is completely innocent, and the accusation merely a weaponization of the public's [rightful] opposition to sexual assault. How do you successfully defend yourself? By saying you're innocent? By trying to prove a negative? By somehow magically determining you were somewhere else (impossible, since neither time nor place nor even year is remembered by your accuser)?
If there is no opportunity for defense, there is no adversarial process.
If there is no adversarial process there can be no justice, and it's nothing more than a circus where most of the "jury" - the Democrats on the panel - have already rendered their verdict in the press.
It's wrong. And if you don't think so, so are you.
