Ford came across as a far more engaging witness, Kavanaugh appeared to be an arrogant, entitled frat boy who lied about having a drink problem and appeared to have spent his entire social life at university in a drunken stupor and repeatedly brought political partisansh­ip into a debate that should have nothing to do with politics.
