But Why Would Putin Choose Kavanaugh?

In my previous post, I proposed a, very speculative, theory that Putin had set the wheels in motion to nominate Brett Kavanaugh to the US Supreme Court.  (As pointed out in the comments, Justice Kennedy's son worked for Alfa Bank (often implicated in money laundering schemes and overall Russian intrigue).).

All good fun, eh?

But if Putin was behind this nomination, why would he push for such a gigantic jerk?  Why would Republicans continue to push for Kavanaugh?  If this man is on the USSC, he will be a huge stain on the reputation of one of the main branch of the US government.

But whether you are a Russian tyrant or an Ayn Rand libertarian, you don't want the US government to work.  You want people to lose faith in their country's institutions.  There is no better person to accomplish this goal with regards the presidency than Trump.  And it would be nigh on impossible to find someone more capable of destroying faith in the USSC than Kavanaugh.

Probably baseless and foolish speculation but cui bono?Recommend this Post
