Martha MacCallum on Kavanaugh Interview: Brett and Ashley ‘Were This Close to Crying’

‘I think it would wreak havoc on anybody’

RUSH EXCERPT:

MacCALLUM: "Watching it again, this is really hard for them and I felt like they were both kind of just tamping down the tears. They were this close to crying. I think this is obviously incredibly emotionally devastating. I think they thought and we all thought that first day at the hearing when Democrats tried to shut down the whole hearing that it couldn’t really get any worse than that, then they think they are all the way through and suddenly those accusations start coming out of the woodwork. I think it would wreak havoc on anybody. They seem very solid together and very united in the effort. I said to them, at some point don’t you say, forget it. It’s not worth it anymore, it’s too painful. But that’s not an option."
