The Eight Republicans Who Have Not Committed to Voting for Kavanaugh
With a showdown between Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and his accuser Christine Blasey Ford slated for Thursday, several alleged Republican senators have still not committed to voting to confirm Kavanaugh.
Here is the list:
- Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine)
- Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.)
- Sen. Mike Enzi (R-Wyo.)
- Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.)
- Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.)
- Sen. Jerry Moran (R-Kan.)
- Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska)
- Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.)
Monday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell assured that there will be a vote on Kavanaugh in the “near future.”
“I want to make it perfectly clear. … Judge Kavanaugh will be voted on here on the Senate floor,” he said. “Up or down on the Senate floor. This fine nominee to the Supreme Court will receive a vote in the Senate in the near future.”
McConnell called Democrat attacks on Kavanaugh a “smear tactic” and described them as “despicable.”
Kavanaugh has faced tremendous backlash after he was accused of sexual misconduct during his teenage years by Christine Blasey Ford, an avowedly left-wing professor from Palo Alto, California. Ford does not remember the date or location of the alleged incident, and none of her four “witnesses” have corroborated her story.
He was also accused by Deborah Ramirez, who consulted with her attorney for six days to “carefully assess” her “memories” before going public with her accusations. Her story cannot be corroborated either, and was so shoddy that not even the New York Times, which recently ran an anonymous op-ed, would publish it.

WATCH: Joe Biden Reads Teleprompter Incorrectly: “I Got to the Senate 180 Years Ago”
That kind of experience is unmatched.
Joe Biden stated that he “got to the Senate 180 years ago” when delivering a scripted campaign speech from a room in his Delaware home on Saturday.

That would’ve been in 1840, when Martin Van Buren was President. There were 52 Senators at the time, and the Democratic Party controlled the chamber, with a Whig minority in opposition. Biden was talking about supporting first responders and firefighters, who would’ve existed in a vastly different capacity in the mid-19th century.
Biden did laugh a little bit after he made the error, which seems to have stemmed from faulty teleprompter instructions or Biden simply misreading the screen in front of him.

Biden’s campaign appearances have been almost entirely scripted as of late, with the Democratic Party’s elder figure even going so far as reading from a teleprompter during interviews.
It’s very sad that the Democratic Party elite and Joe Biden’s handlers have allowed this to continue. A man with an arguably severe level of cognitive decline should not be the President of a nation of 330 million people. That is not right.
However, you almost can’t blame them for binding him concisely to the words on the teleprompter. Unscripted campaign appearances have proved to be even more of a disaster, with Biden forgetting the words to the Pledge of Allegiance in a campaign speech earlier this week, for example.
