Is the accusation against Kavanaugh the culmination of a set-up from 2012? *UPDATED* - Bookworm Room

A 2012 New Yorker piece naming Kavanaugh as a potential Romney pick for the Supremes may provide the genesis for Christine Ford's questionable accusation.

Keep in mind that Ford, aside from being a Bernie supporting academic, is a psychologist. For many, part of getting a degree in psychology is going through one's own therapy. One would think that, even if, as a shy 15-year-old, Ford was too afraid to go public with her charge against Kavanaugh, when she went through therapy on her way to her degree, she would have spoken about this alleged assault, especially because she says it traumatized her for years. But she didn’t. Instead, suddenly, in 2012, she’s bathed in flop sweat from an incident decades before.

Oh, and get this: the author of this piece was suspended from Twitter because of it.
