Senate Judiciary Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-SC) wrote to Democrats on his committee saying they would move “expeditiously” to advance President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee.
Graham said his view of the judicial confirmation process had changed after witnessing the treatment of Justice Brett Kavanaugh, who was accused of sexual assault but was ultimately confirmed by the Senate.
Wrote Graham: “I am certain if the shoe were on the other foot, you would do the same.”
