Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh on Monday defended himself against the sexual assault allegations roiling his nomination by saying he was a virgin through high school and college.
"We’re talking about an allegation of sexual assault," Kavanaugh said in a clip released from his interview on Fox News Channel's "The Story with Martha MacCallum."
"I’ve never sexually assaulted anyone," Kavanaugh said. "I did not have sexual intercourse or anything close to sexual intercourse in high school or for many years thereafter ... The girls from the schools I went to, and I, were friends."
"Through all these years that were in question, you were a virgin?" Fox News host Martha MacCallum asked.
"That’s correct," Kavanaugh replied, adding that he did not have sex until "many years after" college.
Neither of the two accusations regarding Kavanaugh involve sexual intercourse. Christine Blasey Ford is alleging Kavanaugh held her down and groped her over her clothes during a high school party in 1982, and Deborah Ramirez claims he exposed himself without her consent during a gathering at Yale University a few years later.
Fox News released clips from the interview throughout the evening on Monday.
At another point in the interview, Kavanaugh vowed he is "not going anywhere" despite the allegations.
"I’m not going to let false accusations drive us out of this process," he said, sitting beside his wife as she nodded.
Kavanaugh during the interview denied attending the party in Ford's account.
"[I am] not questioning and have not questioned that perhaps Dr. Ford at some point in her life was sexually assaulted by someone at some place but what I know is I’ve never sexually assaulted anyone," he said.
Ford has stated that she is sure Kavanaugh was the man who allegedly assaulted her in an episode that she says has caused her decades of emotional trauma.
The full interview is scheduled to air at 7 p.m. EST.
I’m thinking that Halsey Ford had fantasy dreams about him and he’d have nothing to do with her. A woman spurned.....
“I think this is a bad idea, because hardly anyone will believe him.”
Why?
Ha! What a prude! How come he didn’t sexually assault women! Is he gay? < /New Left’s talking points >
Hate to be a high schooler in this day and age, never know which promiscuous little tart is going to go off her meds in adulthoodm, resurface and try to ruin your life.
What did Sonny, a fairly sane person, ever see in her?
And btw, liberals/socialists/Demwits/media a-holes -- he WILL be on the SCOTUS, and good luck getting any part of your agenda past him, after pushing him to this point.
funny
That he has to defend himself in this manner shows just how tawdry this process has become. It might be interesting, however, if there were any medical records to prove this, which would destroy the accusers.
It's totally shallow and hypocritical. The only time they're upset about that behavior is when they think they can tie it to a conservative. Liberals, of either sex, are allowed to be disgusting skanks.
I hate this. This is beyond despicable. And God bless him.
Way too much information.
All I want to hear from him is the severity with which he intends to pursue defamation charges against the variety of the parties that have acted criminally to defame him.
Incomprehensible to Hedonistic Democrats.
yes but he’s been put into this situation.
and making a bold statement like this would open him up to someone coming forward and saying “I had sex with him”. I gotta believe he’s being truthful.
Actually this is one hell of a statement that could not be made unless it was true.
If I were a nominee for the Supreme Court (it requires far higher standards than myself unless I were a democrat) and made this statement I would be proven a damn liar most quickly.
Now the perverted left will say, he has admitted that he is too puritanical to be allowed on the Court !
He doesn’t understand the reality of (promiscuous) women’s lives !
the Incels will inherit the earth.
WTH?!
Now I totally don’t want this guy as a judge..../S
SNL will nail this one...
#METOO. Now, about that bridge...........
No dude would admit to being a virgin through college unless it was true..its a real shame because of the Commie left, that a wonderful man has to admit this on national television in order to clear his name
