Senator Bob Corker on Thursday called Judge Brett Kavanaugh "a superb nominee" for the U.S. Supreme Court.
He made the statement after meeting with President Donald Trump’s nominee for the U.S. Supreme Court.
Senator Corker said, “I had a great meeting today with Judge Kavanaugh and think he is a superb nominee.
It is inspiring to me to see someone of his caliber, who has dedicated his life in the fashion that he has, have this opportunity to serve on the Supreme Court. He answered the questions that I asked very clearly, succinctly and professionally, and I don’t think the meeting could have gone any better.
"I thank him for his desire to serve our country. I will certainly watch Judge Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearing, but assuming there are no surprises there, I plan to enthusiastically support his nomination.”
