‘This week, Judge Brett Kavanaugh has continued meeting with members of this body. So far, I believe the only Senators who’ve met with this nominee and then had negative things to say about him were Democrats who’d already announced beforehand they would oppose him. I suspect that, with Judge Kavanaugh, you have to go in with a closed mind in order to come away unimpressed. This man has served with distinction for more than a decade on what many scholars consider the second-highest court in our nation -- the D.C. Circuit. His legal brilliance and his fair, open-minded approach have won him vocal praise from those in the know across the political spectrum.’
