I can only imagine how awful this entire process has been for Judge Kavanaugh and his family. I truly admire Judge Kavanaugh's determination along with that of his family to not quit in the face of the outrageous accusations that have been leveled against him. I would again ask every senator who believes Judge Kavanaugh is a highly qualified, capable nominee to the Supreme Court to not quit on him. It is incredibly important we do not legitimize these smears and attempts at character assassination for the good of the Court, the future of the Senate, and the character of our nation. I believe Judge Kavanaugh will be confirmed to the Supreme Court very soon. However, if his nomination were to fall short, I would encourage President Trump to re-nominate Judge Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. It would in effect be appealing the Senate's verdict directly to the American people. The midterm elections are only 35 days away and a new group of senators may view Judge Kavanaugh's nomination very differently after hearing from the voters in their states. ##### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
