US President Donald Trump said Tuesday the reaction to decades-old allegations of sexual assault against his Supreme Court pick Brett Kavanaugh makes it "a very scary time" for young men in the United States.
"You could be somebody that was flawless your entire life and somebody could accuse you of something - doesn't necessarily have to be a woman - but somebody could accuse you of something and you're automatically guilty".
'I thought he did very well, ' Trump said of Kavanaugh's testimony. However, the senators face much more pressure from the left to oppose Kavanaugh in light of the sexual assault allegations against him.
Dr. Christine Blasey Ford testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday that Kavanaugh attempted to rape her at a party in high school more than 30 years ago.
The FBI will also question Leland Keyser and P.J. Smyth, two people who Ford said were at the gathering of teenagers where Kavanaugh allegedly assaulted her.
Even before the allegations against Kavanaugh were publicized, the women argued, Manchin should have been committed to voting against President Donald Trump's nominee.
The FBI has initiated its investigation into allegations against Kavanaugh at the direction of the White House after Flake last week - with the backing of Murkowski and Collins - called for a delay in consideration of the nomination so that the FBI could undertake a review.
While speaking at The Atlantic Fest on Tuesday, Flake noted that he was disappointed in the tone that Kavanaugh had adopted while defending himself against sexual assault accusations.

He said it's important that senators had a chance to ask directly about what the FBI investigated, what evidence they collected and who they interviewed.
When asked by a Yahoo reporter Hunter Walker to provide a message to young women, the president replied: "Women are doing great".
Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, listens to complaints from Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee on the opening day of his confirmation hearings, September 4, 2018. Mr Kavanaugh denies that as well. After meeting with Kavanaugh, Collins said she was satisfied with his answers and did not think he would overturn Roe.
Chad Ludington, a Yale classmate of Kavanaugh, said in a media statement the judge was not truthful during his Senate testimony last week about his drinking and that Kavanaugh was "a frequent drinker and a heavy drinker" at Yale who often got belligerent and aggressive when drunk.
"This is another part of their moving the goal posts, which is happening at the speed of light at this point", said Carrie Severino, chief counsel for the Judicial Crisis Network, a conservative advocacy group. On Monday, his lawyer Barbara "Biz" Van Gelder said he had been interviewed "but his interview has not been completed".
Last Friday, the deciding vote to send Kavanaugh's confirmation to the full Senate came from Arizona Sen.
"I have a firm recollection of seeing boys lined up outside rooms at many of these parties waiting for their "turn" with a girl inside the room", BI quoted Swetnick as saying in her declaration."The people who knew me then know that this did not happen, and have said so". He said he did not want the probe to become a "witch hunt" and that it should be completed quickly. "It was very bad. I think everybody has struggled". McConnell says accusations against Kavanaugh of sexual abuse in the 1980s have been uncorroborated and are unbelievable. After facing a wave of criticism, Trump appeared to relinquish this strict control over the probe, telling the bureau that it would have the leeway to investigate whichever leads it deems relevant. "We don't want a Supreme Court whose credibility is in doubt".
