There haven’t been any real “gotcha” moments in the testimony of Christine Blasey Ford, but one head-scratcher has emerged. Senate Democrats and the legal team for Ford forced multiple delays of the hearing because Ford was allegedly unable to fly due to extreme anxiety.
Tucker Carlson: Is Dr. Ford’s Fear of Flying is a Delay Tactic?
He pivoted to Ford’s statements to Senators that she couldn’t come to Washington D.C. by Monday because she’s “afraid to fly on airplanes” and that her fear is directly connected to her alleged assault by Kavanaugh.
“But wait, is this true?” Carlson asked. “Ford has relatives on the east coast. According to published accounts, she’s been here recently. Did she drive back and forth to California every time she visited? We don’t know. Then last week, The New York Times reported that Ford did graduate work at the University of Hawaii. That’s on an island thousands of miles in the Pacific. How exactly did she get there?”
Carlson then questioned whether Ford’s fear of flying even existed.
During testimony, Ford acknowledged several flights that she has taken. In fact, it seems she flies regularly. Vacations, work travel, and family travel has not hindered her from taking to the air.
Democrats then tried to spin it that the Republicans were unwilling to travel to her. This is untrue as well. Senator Chuck Grassley noted on the record that they offered to come to her but her legal team declined.
This was clearly a delay tactic. She may or may not experience anxiety from flying, but she’s been willing to fly on multiple occasions when she wants.
