As Twitchy reported early this week, flailing Democratic presidential candidate Amy Klobuchar thought she’d try to get some mileage out of that New York Times hit piece on Justice Brett Kavanaugh by posting a photo of what real courage looks like, and the backlash was savage.

Let us never forget what courage looks like. pic.twitter.com/2bRD8s8sda — Amy Klobuchar (@amyklobuchar) September 15, 2019

Plenty of people posted photos of firefighters, soldiers, 9/11 responders, Border Patrol agents, but we’re sorry we missed this response at the time by Daily Caller associate editor Virginia Kruta:

The response was certainly divided, but Kruta received a lot of support for highlighting Kavanaugh’s wife. We’re going to skip all the nasty ones and get right to actress Kristy Swanson.

You are correct Virginia! Amen!!! — Kristy Swanson (@KristySwansonXO) September 16, 2019

Absolutely, incontestably correct. — Vellichor (@Vellichor_Cafe) September 16, 2019

I felt so bad for her. I could feel her pain ? — Miss Jennifer ll-// (@MissJennifer116) September 16, 2019

Nailed it! — Linda Brotzman (@lindabrotz) September 16, 2019

He didn't deserve to listen to, and see his family listen to false, salacious accusations. Democrats suck. — Mike White (@mwhite1961) September 15, 2019

I can’t imagine sitting there and hearing such horrible lies about your husband. Mrs. Kavanaugh kept her composure and stood firmly behind her husband. She is a model of grace under pressure! — Royal Blue Smiles (@royalbluesmiles) September 15, 2019

And this is what an idiot looks like pic.twitter.com/uoiCIEZJFo — Crook Shillary (@SnowFlake2Water) September 16, 2019

Amen!! ?????? — I ❤️ Winning ??✝️ #ProudNationalist ?? (@PatriotMarie) September 16, 2019

Perfect answer M’am. — Joey Bagodonuts (@jarlockinco) September 16, 2019

The Sharpie thing didn’t work so you guys are back to this? Wow. — Craig Howard (@crahow555) September 16, 2019

Kavanaugh impeachment fever might have peaked and passed this week because now we’re onto the whistleblower story that’s certain to take down Trump. Who knows what courageous thing Ford is up to.
