Thing, i didnt know him. But i heard his name for ten years. You know how i heard his name . Everybody was saying, he should be on the Supreme Court. I said, who is he . His name is Brett Kavanaugh, and he should be, hes the most brilliant person, hes the most brilliant lawyer. They were talking about him on the Supreme Court ten years ago. With all of that, i want to hear what she has to say. You said that you dont feel you said that you feel like there have been numerous false allegations against you. Oh, ive had many false statements against me. And you understand what he ive had many false statements against me and if the press would have reported i would be very happy. I think john roberts would tell you you covered the story where the women were paid to say bad things about me. Sean hannity covered it. I will tell you, when i saw that on sean hannity, i actually called him. Believe it or not. I dont speak to him very much, but i respect him, i called him. I said, this is the bigg
independent senator bernie sanders. i spoke to him just before air. senator sanders, this press conference, the president in one moment called the allegations against judge kavanaugh a big, fat con job. in the next said he was open minded going to tomorrow s hearing. which do you think it actually is? i do not judge what president trump says because i think he s a kind of unstable guy who lies a whole lot of the time and whatever he says today may well change tomorrow. so i don t put a whole lot of faith or credibility in what he says. i suppose that applies to when he also said that he left the door open to the possibility that he could withdraw the nomination after watching tomorrow. look, anderson, this is where i think we re at. full disclosure. i announced publicly in vermont that i would be voting against kavanaugh very shortly after trump nominated him because i think he would, if seated, become part of a hard-right
sworn affidavits saying she brought this up. so she d have to be somewhat psychic and the democrats, of course, in this con job would have had to know all the way back in 2012 and 2013 all sorts of things were going to happen. that there s no way they could have known happened. so it s so the theory that s being put forward by the president and the gop really falls apart very quickly. yeah. david gergen, thanks. kirsten, jeff, stay with us. i want to get your reaction to something else the president said today about one of, as david gergen mentioned, his own accusers. jessica leads is her name. she says president trump groped her on a flight decades ago. the president mentioned her by name today. also ahead, you re looking at a picture of christine blasey ford taking a lie detector test back in august. today a report with the results of the test was sent to the senate judiciary committee. i ll talk to the man who administered the test to professor ford. ways to lose stubborn bell
as practical, moral ones. whatever the case, what is clear tonight is how drastically things appear to have changed in the space of a day or, in president trump s case, since he said this on wednesday about democrats in the process. they re actually con artists because they know how quality this man is, and they ve destroyed a man s reputation. and they want to destroy it even more. and i think people are going to see that in the midterms. what they ve done to this family, what they ve done to these children, these beautiful children of his and what they ve done to his wife. and they know it s a big, fat con job. so, that was wednesday. now, last week the president rejected any idea that he would request the fbi reopen their background investigation of judge kavanaugh. and even as recently as last evening as the testimony ended, the president was still rhetorically all-in on kavanaugh, tweeting, judge kavanaugh showed america exactly why i nominated him. his testimony was powerful,
did the protesters that you encountered play a role at all? i think everything that i ve seen and viewed and experienced in the last couple of weeks has had an impact. but so it s been everything. everything, he says, which today included pressure from constituents, some of whom crowded offices and jammed phone lines. there were also obviously political considerations as well as practical, moral ones. whatever the case, what is clear tonight is how drastically things appear to have changed in the space of a day or, in president trump s case, since he said this on wednesday about democrats in the process. they re actually con artists because they now how quality this man is, and they ve destroyed a man s reputation. and they want to destroy it even more. and i think people are going to see that in the midterms. what they ve done to this family, what they ve done to these children, these beautiful children of his and what they ve done to his wife. and they know it s a big, fat
