U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) today released this statement.
"When it comes to stopping President Donald Trump 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."
