Trump on Kavanaugh: Democrats ‘Are Lousy on Policy, But Very Good on Obstruction’
EXCERPT:
TRUMP: "It would not bother me other than the FBI saying that is not what they do. They have supposedly done six background checks over the years as Judge Kavanaugh has gotten beautifully up the ladder. He is an incredible individual, great intellect, great judge, impeccable history in every way. I feel so badly for him that he is going through this, to be honest with you. I feel so badly for him. This is not a man that deserves this. It should have been brought up long ago and that is what you have hearings for. You don't wait until hearing is over, and then all of a sudden bring it up. When Senator Feinstein sat with Judge Kavanaugh for a long period of time, a long, long meeting, she had this letter. Why didn’t she bring it up then? Why didn't Democrats bring it up then? Because they obstruct, and because they resist. That's the name of their campaign against me. They just resist and they just obstruct. Then, frankly, I think they are lousy on policy, and in many ways, they are lousy politicians, but they are very good on obstruction. And it's a shame, because this is a great gentleman. With all of that, I feel that the Republicans, and I can speak for myself, we should go through a process. Because there should not be a little doubt. There shouldn't be a doubt. Again, they knew what they were doing. They should have done this a long time ago, three months ago. Not now. But they did it now. I don’t want to play into their hands. Hopefully, the woman will come forward, state her case, he will state his case before representatives of the United States Senate and then they will vote. They will look at his career and look at what she had to say from 36 years ago and we will see what happenes. I just think he is at a level that we rarely see, not only in government, anywhere in life. Honestly, I feel terribly for him, for his wife who is an incredible, lovely woman and for his beautiful young daughters. I feel terribly for them."
