Presumption of innocence is a legal right of the accused in a criminal trial. But, this is not a criminal trial. It's about appointment to the highest court in the USA.
So, the standard should be the among highest for any position in the land. Therefore, the presumption of innocence principle doesn't apply. Kavanaugh knew that. Which is why he tried to portray himself as above reproach.
If he had been more honest, he might have portrayed himself as a reformed bad boy like George W. Bush. But, then he would have risked rejection.
He was too ambitious for that. So he misrepresented himself. At least that's how it looks to me given the evidence I've seen at this point.

The Senate Democrats also knew that, and that's why they worked with other Leftist operatives to orchestrate this smear job.
Evidence? What evidence have you seen beyond uncorroborated accusations 35 years old?
