You must have missed Trump’s comments today. He clearly deferred to “whatever the senators want.” He won’t shut this down. He’s gambling McConnell will have rounded up the votes for a floor motion and confirmation on Friday. Hardly a sure thing.
Why don’t we just count the numerous times people have mocked and doubted Trump only to find out eventually that he was right! Too many to count! Trump is not gambling. Kavanaugh will be confirmed. Trump supports him.
You’d better bet it is a sure thing. Trump doesn’t make this kind of mistake. He knows what he’s doing.
