Welcome to the lead, im jake tapper. We begin with president Trumps Supreme Court Brett Kavanaugh whose confirmation was once seen as a sure bet, now its in question. All ten democratic members of the Senate Judiciary committee are pushing for a delay on the committee vote. But far more significantly, four republican senators including one on the committee agree, insisting that they need to hear directly from kavanaughs accuser, Christine Blasey ford, before proceeding. The president praised kavanaugh still and argued that the accusations should have been brought forward sooner by the democrats who have known about it since july. Judge kavanaugh is one of the finest people that ive ever known. Hes an outstanding intellect, outstanding judge respected by everybody. Never had even a little blemish on his record. At the same time, we want to go through a process, we want to make sure everything is perfect, everything is just right. I wish the democrats could have done this a lot sooner. Y
john mccain after having dodged the draft four times. this is a man that goes out there and talks about what a scarey time this is for men and mocks christine blasy ford when he has more than 50 credible accusations of assault against him and what we re seeing with stormy daniels. and to see all the people around him cheering, it really is almost surreal. i think we need to say that there are accusations that are proven false are a faction, i mean minuscule amount of accusations. all of the guys that we knew as teenagers that we hung out with, that we went to parties with are never accused because they never do anything wrong like this. but what are your thoughts about the whole landscape? well, i mean, the way i see it is i see just it as a lot of entitlement and this idea that we shouldn t be held accountable.
2020 hindsight. i think it is very complicated decision for any woman to want to come forward in any setting. i mean, this happens in high schools and young women don t want to come forward. whether you are dr. christine blasy ford or deborah ramirez, who we believe 100%, and you know the cost to your family, of course you re going to want to take your time and think about the implications, because the cards are stacked against you. to me, that means every single person involved in this proceeding should be thinking about why they would come forward other than this is the truth and they are trying to save this country from a terrible fate of having this man on the supreme court. he should be withdrawn immediately or else the gop and president trump are saying they don t care about the integrity of the court and they don t care about women.
