The mob rules: Dramatic moment two female protesters trap Sen. Jeff Flake

This is the dramatic moment that two female protesters, and alleged rape victims, trapped Sen. Jeff Flake in an elevator and berated him after he announced he was voting to confirm Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanugh. Flake gave Kavanaugh's nomination a major boost from the Judiciary Committee after the holdout Republican senator announced his support Friday morning following a day of harrowing testimony from Christine Blasey Ford who claims he sexually assaulted her. Shortly after the announcement, Flake was walking into an elevator when two women ran up to him and stood blocking the doors. Both woman revealed that they were survivors of sexual abuse, and accused Flake of silencing rape victims by announcing his support for Kavanaugh. One of the women shouted, through tears: 'Don't look away from me! Look at me and tell me that it doesn't matter what happens to me.' I was sexually assaulted and no one believed me,' she continued. 'You're telling all women they don't matter. That they should just stay quiet because if they tell you what happen to them, that you are going to ignore them. 'That's what you're telling all women in America.

Predators. We can’t imagine the trauma he felt. Arrest them.

This is the logical end-game for Alinskyism if anyone had bothered to read the book.

The antics of these protesters may well have pushed him over the edge to our side.

Hey Flake, remember this when it is time to vote for Kavanaugh. The radical, hateful left is all-in.

Nor should they as their ideas, their plans, their words and their actions are clearly incompatible with liberty.

Confrontation. Intimidation. And then eventual assassination. The left are making their moves.

—”You’re telling all women they don’t matter.”-—

More like telling them, “Don’t wait 35 years and then act surprised when your accusations are indistinguishable from a politically-motivated smear job.”

He should have told them to run to the other end of the Capital and protest Mel Watts.

For Laura Loomer with Maxine Waters, the doors on that SAME elevator were not held open.

They closed them on her, as Maxine SMIRKED.

Pretty sure it’s illegal to do that. Impede a Senator or Rep on the way to his job. Isn’t it in the Constitution?

Where’s the Keystone Kapital Cops?

These Democrats are manufacturing GOP voters at a stunning pace. They are so deep in the DC bubble they cannot see how bad this is for them.
