For the judge . We knew that a few weeks ago we are going to have a Committee Vote this week. Mondays early as next procedurally if we stay disciplined it should all stay on track. From the tone of the hearings it was kind of litigated in a much different way. Aboutf the opposition was the policies that are important to them should amy be voted in as a Supreme Court justice. From my point of view that we dont see any drama similar to what we saw a couple years ago. Host what potentially could take it off track . I think its a very remote that it occurs. Dont let out. Including throwing the kitchen sink added. Those options werent many. As long as we stay steadfast we should see a fairly predictable outcome. Host clearly youve heard the criticisms of the judge. What did you think of those critiques . I think its about as mild as you can find in this day and age where literally i do view sadly have only been here a little under two years. When you do have one side of the aisle that is comfortable with activism at the judicial level, it all makes sense why the nomination is so important. Think when you look at her intellectual capabilities, her judicial merit, where her values are rooted. Change it you have to do to have some things happen from a more conservative originalist point of view. That may be the case not only recently but over decades. Host when you hear criticism that her presence on the court would lead to dismantling of the aca or roe v. Wade, what perspective do you offer when you hear those criticisms. I came here primarily trying to Reform Health care. Inry republican believes preexisting conditions. Agoy own business 12 years that ship has sailed and when you spend things politically and away it is kind of disingenuous because its not the case. Hand we asr republicans were slow footed not to embrace fixing the number one issue that besets is this is an individuals and thats the dysfunction in our health care system. I do believe when you make the case that she is going to be the determining factor that would derail what theyre interested in politically, thats just not true. Otherone of those criticisms from democrats, what do you think about that argument and if this were switched to the other side of the hypothetical what would you think about that . If the same conditions were in place and the democrats controlled the presidency and the senate, it would be done at the same dispatch if not more quickly. A bit ofheres hypocrisy there. That is part of the ultimate result of elections. Thats white is so important whats going to happen in two weeks. Doesnt mean that whoever is against, whoever is in there or the candidate that would not see put into place. Host senator mike braun republican of indiana. What is the likelihood that another Coronavirus Relief package is going to pass on capitol hill . I think it would be a great likelihood if we did what needs onbe done and that is focus the particular parts of the economy that are still struggling. Things of the extraneous that are in the pelosi heroes act and what they are attention week negotiating currently with the white house. It would be a slamdunk. Forepublicans voted repurposing the money, addressing the individuals that are still out of the job, the businesses that are still hurting. Take the other extraneous stuff off the table. It was 53 republicans for a few weeks ago. I dont think theres any chance that a broad crosssection of republicans would vote for whats currently being discussed between pelosi and the white house. Republicans,e 13 it could be something done targeted and focused and we could do that quickly. Host as far as whats being floated by the Senate Majority leader, scope that what that involves and why you would supported or not. Support it or not. It would be for ppp to be extended, it would address some of the individuals that are still hurting because theyve lost their jobs through no fault of their own. It would be focused on covid related issues, abroad grab bag of other political wish list items that pelosis gotten her package. Needuld help those most in in many places if you did not take the approach of blanket shutdowns. Economies are bouncing back robustly. In my own home county in indiana , unemployment is down. As a state its way under the National Average and we are already under now in National Unemployment and we were through a Long Duration in 2008 and nine through that recovery. We need to Pay Attention to the disease itself. Host senator braun, we appreciate your time. Republicanom a senator earlier. We are joined now by senator tim kaine. Thanks for joining us. The current timetable has where dorted on the you see yourself voting if and when the vote takes place . When the sad fact of justice , isburgs death came about urge my republican colleagues to keep their promise in the American Public and do what they said they would do funny 16.
