Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah), one of President Trump’s most outspoken critics, says he will vote for Judge Amy Coney Barrett to be confirmed to the Supreme Court.
Romney, who was the only Republican senator to vote to convict Trump on an article of impeachment in February, praised Barrett on Thursday, calling her “impressive” and “exceptionally well qualified.”
“After meeting with Judge Barrett and carefully reviewing her record and her testimony, I intend to vote in favor of her confirmation to the Supreme Court,” he said in a statement. “I am confident that she will faithfully apply the law and our Constitution, impartially and regardless of policy preferences.”
She did not persuade Murkowski. Rather Murkowski did what she did to offset the senator who wanted to attend his daughters wedding. Remember?
96. Senator from MI did not vote.
Wearing his superhero Captain Underpants again. He loves the attention.
Only positive thing about him is that he has good hair.
good!
I think you’re right about that. It may have been the WV senator who needed cover.
Here is her speech:

It was senator Daines of Montana. Trump told him to attend his daughters wedding.
Not really, my grandparents raised me, all was fine.
You were fortunate. God bless them.
No, I meant the WVA senator needed cover to vote yes and Collins’ speech provided it.
