(Sen) Sasse (R-NE): I encouraged Trump to pick someone other than Kavanaugh
The Hill ^ | October 3, 2018 | Jordain Carney

GOP Sen. Ben Sasse (Neb.) said Wednesday night that he urged President Trump to nominate someone other than Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court earlier this year.

"Although I've said many complimentary things about Judge Brett Kavanaugh and his distinguished record … I will say that I urged the president back in June and early July to make a different choice before he announced this nomination," Sasse said during an emotional speech from the Senate floor centering on sexual assault.

Spineless coward. As soon as the Dems went after any Trump pick, this loser would be saying the same thing.

There is nothing to like about Ben Sasse. He is basically the Jeff Flake of Nebraska. You can bet that this worthless Never-Trump scumbag will not be re-elected in Nebraska.

I just called his office in Omaha. I told her I want him to Vote to confirm Kavanaugh. I also told her even though he hates Trump he needs to stop giving the democrats ammunition.
I plan to change from Independent to Republican just to vote against him in the primaries.

Basically this idiot is saying that he told Trump to nominate a woman so the left couldn’t smear her as a rapist as they would any man Trump would nominate. Hey, Sisse, it is OK to come out from under the table you have been cowering under and would have the entire GOP there with you. Put your big boy pants on and cast your vote.

Pure 100% BS.
Kav was not on the Prez’s short list last spring when Sasse purportedly gave him this worthless advice. At that time Kav was the most respected Jurist in the country. Why would bright Ben have offered such unwarranted advice?
