Sen. Hatch Asks Why a ‘Porn Star Attorney’ Is Managing the News Cycle

Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) ended up being very disappointed with the coverage of the series of sexual misconduct allegations against President Trump’s Supreme Court candidate Judge Brett Kavanaugh throughout a hearing Thursday.

“I hate to state this however this is worse than Robert Bork and I didn’t think it could get any worse than that,” Hatch stated. “This is even worse than Clarence Thomas. I didn’t think it might get any worse than that.”

“Pornography star lawyers with facially implausible claims are driving the news cycle,” Hatch complained.Hatch was referencing Michael Avenatti, who represents adult film star Stormy Daniels in her case against the president. Avenatti stepped forward Tuesday representing Julie Swetnick, a woman accusing Kavanaugh of being part of a group of high school men that spiked the punch at parties and gang raped girls.Multiple Democratic senators asked Kavanaugh to reject Swetnick’s allegations which he did, however, they did not specifically mention her claims of gang rape.” Are you a gang rapist?” an incredibly disappointed Sen. Lindsey Graham( R-SC)did ask Kavanaugh at one point

to demonstrate how extravagant he considered the claims to be.Kavanaugh replied in the unfavorable.”If Judge Kavanaugh devoted sexual attack, he should not serve on the Supreme Court,

I believe we ‘d all agree with that,”Sen. Hatch emphasized in his remarks, stating this process”has highlighted the worst in our politics.” “It definitely has brought us no closer to the reality, “he included.”Confidential letters without any name and no return address are now being treated as nationwide news,” he said.Judge Kavanaugh offered an emotional testament Thursday denying Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s allegations that he groped her and pinned her down while he was intoxicated at a party in high school. The witnesses she initially claimed existed have actually rejected that such an event occurred.He vehemently rejected Swetnick’s claims, calling them a”farce.”Dr. Ford also gave an emotional account of her claims, eliciting sympathy from the committee and praise from the Democrats. Nevertheless, she battled with certain truths throughout questioning such as whether she revealed treatment notes to the Washington Post, why her fear of flying was pointed out as a reason for not coming to the hearing despite her having traveled thoroughly for trip, and what day she took a polygraph test.
