Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham gave a master class in how it's done, almost foaming at the mouth. On Friday, Trump, under pressure from key Republican senators, ordered the FBI to conduct an additional background investigation of Kavanaugh, who faces several sexual misconduct allegations.
That's what happens when you lose credibility with your constituents, fellow Democrats, and those across the aisle you have to work with each day. "God, I hope you never get it", he said.
"We ought to do what we can to make sure that we do all due diligence with a nomination this important", he said, noting that the probe should be limited to current and credible allegations. It contains mildly objectionable language. Lindsey Graham says it's going to fall to him to lay out to President Donald Trump why Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court confirmation vote has been delayed.
"I hope you're on the Supreme Court".
"I'm a 76-year-old woman who was sexually molested in the 2nd grade; this brings back so much pain", one survivor told C-SPAN's, Steve Scully. "I have not asked that question directly".
While some lawmakers have said they wanted to wait to hear Ford's testimony before making further judgments and three Republican governors on Thursday called to delay voting to confirm Kavanaugh, Graham expressed skepticism. Scarborough, a former Florida congressman who left the GOP in response to Trump's presidency, has been consistently critical of the way Republicans have handled Ford's allegations-asserting that they should have demanded a full FBI investigation the minute she went public.

More women have since come forward to accuse Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct.
"But let me tell my Democratic friends: If this is the new norm, you'd better watch out for your nominees", Graham added.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein's deceptions have been catching up to her, and lately the California Democrat's been repeatedly called on them. That could change. After Thursday, a lot of otherwise marginal Republican voters will be motivated by the Kavanaugh travesty and the Democrats' disgusting tactics.
"I'd say I've been through hell and then some", Kavanaugh replied.
Hatch said the hearing was "worse" than the 1991 hearing for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas - which Hatch also participated in and which led to a surge in the number of women elected to Congress the next year. Durbin (D-Illinois) on whether he would personally favor an Federal Bureau of Investigation probe into the allegations of sexual misconduct put forward by Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, who testified before him, and others. The case can be made that if it weren't for Graham, Kavanaugh's confirmation would have been in jeopardy.
