And how long until the abuse charges come from his office?

And if Kavanaugh had not been exposed as a rapist, do you think he would have done this?

He is damaged goods and he owes his existence on the Supreme Court to the populists that call themselves Republicans. Every time he walks by, people will whisper. Every time he rules, people will snicker at him behind his back. This is just a desperate stunt on his part to try and cover up the stench of his appointment.

First he was no more exposed as a rapist than you would be if someone put forth a 36 year old accusation with no corroborating evidence.

As to your major point, I suspect he would have. Justice Kavanaugh is well known for being the first judge of the D.C. Circuit to have had mostly women as his law clerks.

President Donald Trump has historically low favorability among women, with the Pew Research Center now reporting that 63 percent of women disapprove of how he is doing his job—compared with 30 percent who approve. That might not be surprising, given the range of things that Trump has said and done that might be seen as offensive to women. There’s the famous “Access Hollywood” tape that gave rise to thousands of pussy hats, the 22 women who have publicly accused him of sexual harassment and assault, and the hush money his personal lawyer has admitted to paying to cover up marital indiscretions. There is Trump’s tendency to insult women, from Carly Fiorina to Megyn Kelly to Mika Brzezinski. Most recently, there was his rally in Mississippi, during which the president mocked Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s allegations that Brett Kavanaugh, who has since been confirmed to the Supreme Court, had sexually assaulted her when they were teenagers.
