>> Neil I m sure ░░░░░░░░ I have never seen ░░░░░░░░ like this entire saga ░░░░░░░░ fisher on Capitol Hill ░░░░░░░░ s go to Indiana ░░░░░░░░ senator Todd young He ░░░░░░░░ he s a firm ░░░░░░░░ vote Good to have ░░░░░░░░ Great to be here ░░░░░░░░ Were you surprised it ░░░░░░░░ down to the wire ░░░░░░░░ a couple of key ░░░░░░░░ that were holdouts and ░░░░░░░░ Collins and after that ░░░░░░░░ it with one lone ░░░░░░░░ supporter Joe Manchin You ░░░░░░░░ this issue from the ░░░░░░░░ has been one that ░░░░░░░░ divided people based on ░░░░░░░░ type of Jurisprudence they ░░░░░░░░ from a justice and ░░░░░░░░ it s divided the ░░░░░░░░ as well I wasn ░░░░░░░░ surprised I know that ░░░░░░░░ like Senator Collins and ░░░░░░░░ and others have taken ░░░░░░░░ responsibilities very very seriously ░░░░░░░░ felt like they needed ░░░░░░░░ time to make a ░░░░░░░░ determination as to how ░░░░░░░░ would cast their votes ░░░░░░░░ think that is right ░░░░░░░░ proper under the incredibly ░░░░░░░░ circumstances that we had ░░░░░░░░ I will say that ░░░░░░░░ process itself was unbecoming ░░░░░░░░ the United States Senate ░░░░░░░░ American people deserve better ░░░░░░░░ is something that Senator ░░░░░░░░ acknowledged when I presided ░░░░░░░░ the Senate moments ago ░░░░░░░░ she delivered her riveting ░░░░░░░░ My hope moving forward ░░░░░░░░ that we can as ░░░░░░░░ said develop a more ░░░░░░░░ union coming out of ░░░░░░░░ process recognizing that perhaps ░░░░░░░░ ve hit rock bottom ░░░░░░░░ Senator we re getting ░░░░░░░░ from George H W ░░░░░░░░ among them saying of ░░░░░░░░ Collins political courage and ░░░░░░░░ I salute my wonderful ░░░░░░░░ and her principle leadership ░░░░░░░░ saying as you know ░░░░░░░░ will cost you guys ░░░░░░░░ the polls just about ░░░░░░░░ month from now What ░░░░░░░░ you say Well I ░░░░░░░░ speak to the state ░░░░░░░░ Indiana Perhaps it s ░░░░░░░░ bellwether for some other ░░░░░░░░ Indiana is someone that ░░░░░░░░ campaigned back in 2016 ░░░░░░░░ looking for fateful constitutionalists ░░░░░░░░ serve on the federal ░░░░░░░░ Neil Gorsuch and now ░░░░░░░░ Kavanaugh have certainly fitted ░░░░░░░░ mold They re going ░░░░░░░░ be supportive on balance ░░░░░░░░ Brett Kavanaugh They re ░░░░░░░░ going to be excited ░░░░░░░░ home about this decision ░░░░░░░░ Susan Collins myself and ░░░░░░░░ that have decided to ░░░░░░░░ Brett Kavanaugh to sit ░░░░░░░░ the Supreme Court of ░░░░░░░░ United States My reading ░░░░░░░░ this is that Republicans ░░░░░░░░ certainly be fired up ░░░░░░░░ this result I m ░░░░░░░░ however that so many ░░░░░░░░ my colleagues didn t ░░░░░░░░ their decision based on ░░░░░░░░ calculation but instead as ░░░░░░░░ Collins did instead on ░░░░░░░░ study conviction and just ░░░░░░░░ to do what is ░░░░░░░░ for her state and ░░░░░░░░ the American people Neil ░░░░░░░░ re getting word from ░░░░░░░░ White House from Sarah ░░░░░░░░ tweeting thank you talking ░░░░░░░░ Senator Collins for standing ░░░░░░░░ your convictions and doing ░░░░░░░░ right thing to confirm ░░░░░░░░ Kavanaugh Separately from Mitch ░░░░░░░░ it was an extraordinary ░░░░░░░░ one of the best ░░░░░░░░ ve heard It came ░░░░░░░░ the right time That ░░░░░░░░ met with the senator ░░░░░░░░ today He had no ░░░░░░░░ of knowing for sure ░░░░░░░░ she would come down ░░░░░░░░ this But he was ░░░░░░░░ Where does the party ░░░░░░░░ from here given the ░░░░░░░░ closeness You dismissed talk ░░░░░░░░ other Republicans that this ░░░░░░░░ cost them at the ░░░░░░░░ If anything it s ░░░░░░░░ Republicans There s battered ░░░░░░░░ on both sides Where ░░░░░░░░ you think everybody goes ░░░░░░░░ here Of course people ░░░░░░░░ continue to campaign and ░░░░░░░░ the argument for the ░░░░░░░░ candidacy For those and ░░░░░░░░ party As we step ░░░░░░░░ of election season it ░░░░░░░░ my firm hope and ░░░░░░░░ personal commitment to wherever ░░░░░░░░ work with people across ░░░░░░░░ aisle whenever those policies ░░░░░░░░ advance the best interests ░░░░░░░░ the American people There ░░░░░░░░ too much tribelism and ░░░░░░░░ in Washington D C ░░░░░░░░ ought to have our ░░░░░░░░ and stand firmly on ░░░░░░░░ but also ought to ░░░░░░░░ principle compromises wherever we ░░░░░░░░ to advance the best ░░░░░░░░ of the American people ░░░░░░░░ think that Senator Collins ░░░░░░░░ her speech provided just ░░░░░░░░ sort of the sort ░░░░░░░░ message that is required ░░░░░░░░ a more perfect union ░░░░░░░░ s what we re ░░░░░░░░ seeking Republican and democratic ░░░░░░░░ We should not be ░░░░░░░░ into making decisions that ░░░░░░░░ wouldn t otherwise make ░░░░░░░░ of special interest groups ░░░░░░░░ was a good day ░░░░░░░░ our Republican constitutional democracy ░░░░░░░░ Neil Nater young thank ░░░░░░░░ very much.
