Why would BK testify on Monday if she isn’t going to? He’s been through the Senate hearings already. No need to reopen them if she is a no-show.
But the rest of your scenario is interesting. What if the deadline passes, they move him out of Committee, and THEN she says “WAIT, I’ll testify.”
What would Grassley do? Hold firm and say “Too late, you had your chance!” Or cave in again and bring her in?
I bet he’d cave. Get the Committee votes and then get the Senate vote! I am so heartbroken for Kavanaugh, his wife and especially his young daughters. What a messed up view those two young girls are going to have of the world we live in. But I guess the world we live in is pretty messed up right now.
