CBC Opinion: Republicans won a great, pyrrhic victory with Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation

I do not agree with everything said in this op/ed. For one thing, I think Dylan Lamberti is expecting voters to have a longer attention span than I believe is the case.

That said, if he's right, there might possibly be a chance of getting some gender inequality out of US politics. (I don't expect full gender equality no matter what happens - two years just isn't long enough for that. Heck, 20 years isn't long enough, if the Canadian experience is anything to go by.)

I do agree with this paragraph:
Quote:But a win doesn't tend to rouse momentum in the same way as does a defeat. The Republicans won. The Senate confirmed Kavanaugh. GOP motivation thus has four weeks to wear away, but Democrats will continue to fester in defeat.
