Graham: Gorsuch ‘the Most Qualified Person’ Trump ‘Could Have Chosen’

‘The Democrats got knocked down about halfway through yesterday’

EXCERPT:

GRAHAM: "The bottom line is he’s the most quantified person that President Trump could have chosen; 2,700 decisions in the last decade as a circuit court judge. One reversal by the United States Supreme Court. Ninety-seven percent of his opinions, you know, were in the unanimous, 99 percent in the majority. You could have not pick -- chosen a better qualified conservative. And the Democratic attacks on him at times were absurd. They’re under a lot of pressure by the left to vote against Judge Gorsuch. They change the rules to stack the court in 2013. I am hoping my Democratic colleagues will look at Judge Gorsuch the way I looked at Sotomayor and Kagan. I would not have chosen them, but they were qualified. That’s why I voted for President Obama’s picks. President Trump’s pick is beyond qualified. This man will make an outstanding justice to the Supreme Court, and he will be on the court no matter what it takes."
