Never-Trumper Ben Sasse: Gorsuch Is a ‘Rock Star’ and ‘I Applaud’ Trump

‘I think he will’ be confirmed

EXCERPT:

SASSE: "I really think those conversations are premature. I don’t know why people would be questioning Gorsuch. If you start reading his opinions, as I have been doing the last three weeks, he’s the kind of guy who, I’m sure — late at night when he gets home from his chambers and takes off his robe, he probably has personal political views, but reading his opinions, I can’t figure out what they are. He knows what a judge’s job is. And he wants to defend the constitution. And he’s not trying to be a super legislator. So, I think it’s premature to talk process fights when I think people across the political spectrum should be excited about this judge when they read his opinions."
STEPHANOPOULOS: "Confident he’ll be on confirmed?"
SASSE: "I think he will."
