If we a assume a truthful Kavanaugh's suitability for the job is 10, a lying Kavanaugh's suitability is 5 and Trump's second choice is a 9, then if there is greater than a 20% chance that any of these accusations are true or that any of his statements made in court were not true, then Kavanaugh is not the best candidate for the job.

I have no problem with your logic here, but I do find it puzzling that you'd consider a lying Kavanaugh's suitability to be a 5 instead of a zero I mean, if he's lying then he's essentially an attempted rapist and committed perjury by lying to Congress. That only knocks him down to a 5 ?!? I know you were just giving a hypothetical, but...

I was being generous for the sake of argument xD Technically he is still a highly qualified judge but yeah, I'd agree that 5 is highly generous, especially in this context. If you were to change the 5 to a 0, that would drop it down to him not being the most qualified if there is even a 10% chance of him lying under the previously defined hypothetical conditions.
