Micah, I just want to emphasize that the Republicans chose this format. They didn’t need to limit senators’ questions to five minutes. Everything we’re seeing today was negotiated. So why did the GOP do this? Did they miscalculate or is it part of a bigger strategy? Right now, it’s feeling to me like a miscalculation. Mitchell’s questioning seems rushed, and it’s hard to untangle these complex issues in five-minutes bursts. But as Perry said, things could feel different when Kavanaugh testifies.
