Abandoning his previous restraint, President Donald Trump challenged the credibility of the woman accusing his Supreme Court nominee of sexual assault on Friday, declaring that if the alleged attack was so terrible she would have reported it to law enforcement. ..
Trump tweeted: "I have no doubt that, if the attack on Dr. Ford was as bad as she says, charges would have been immediately filed with local Law Enforcement Authorities by either her or her loving parents. I ask that she bring those filings forward so that we can learn date, time, and place!"
Shortly after Trump's tweet, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., expressed his determination to get Kavanaugh confirmed. He told evangelical activists at the annual Values Voter conference the Senate will "plow right through."
