In a Monday tweet storm, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said that “coaching witnesses” and “reporting thinly-sourced stories” are part of Democrats’ attempt to undermine President Donald Trump by torpedoing his Supreme Court nominee.
When it comes to stopping Pres @realDonaldTrump and his agenda there seem to be no boundaries.
Whether it’s coaching witnesses or reporting thinly-sourced stories without proper verification, everything is fair game and falls into the category of – ‘The Ends Justify the Means.’

What we are witnessing is the total collapse of the traditional confirmation process for a Supreme Court nominee.
It is being replaced by a game of delay, deception, and wholesale character assassination.

Clearly when it comes to President Trump, elections – in the eyes of Democrats – have no consequences.
In my view, the process needs to move forward with a hearing Thursday, and vote in committee soon thereafter.

Graham has previously maintained that “unless there’s something more, I’m not going to ruin Judge Kavanaugh’s life” referring to professor Christine Blasey Ford’s sexual assault accusation. Apparently a second allegation of sexual misconduct from Deborah Ramirez has not changed Graham’s mind.
