Thats going to play out on capitol hill in my opinion the republicans should be calling for an fbi investigation, and respect the facts. >> well, you look at what just happened there with donald trump and he has this moment where hes on the international stage and he could talk about americas role in the world but instead he does, he goes directly into the am you had. >> he loves it, yeah. >> so you look at the political actors through this confirmation process and they have been the ones who ha...

Fact witness, thats a real problem. but the real problem is as well the format. one round apiece of five minutes. you cant ask questions and follow-ups and do a decent job of the democrats as well as the republicans. >> jane, just politically would it be smart for the republicans to say we need an fbi investigation at this point? >> absolutely. this should have happened, it should have been expanded last week and i dont know how long it would take to do it. i mean, it was 35 years ago, memories ...

She could have charges made from many years ago also. and i would look at the character -- what i have to do -- >> reporter: reluctant to come forward. youve raised doubts about these accusers. >> president trump: i dont think people are reluctant to come forward. they are going to have a chance to speak. they have a major chance to speak, and it will be tomorrow, i assume. we have delayed this, meaning the republican senators, not me. the republican senators have delayed this for weeks now. the...

Particularly these suburban voters who are going to be so essential and crucial during the midterm elections and to have this moment, question asked of the wife, the judge steps in and takes it for her. certainly there was plenty of people i talked to in the last day or so who suggested that wasnt great. the people -- the reporting ive done the last 24 hours or so since that interview aired, you know, the white house certainly was -- they were glad he was out there. they pushed for it. this is s...

Forget that the constitution is our secular bible. where you are under examination of little league or grammar school, we get inspiration for every process in our country. our daily lives are based on the inherent right to meet your accusers, to cross-examine, not to bring evidence hearsay and have detailed evidence and have statutes of limitations. we are throwing all that out because the means are necessary for this noble and of stopping brett kavanaugh. and a false accusation, tom robinson wa...

Materialized. what youre hearing now more and more from the right is, look, if republicans dont push this through and confirm him, you can kiss the senate good-bye because our voters are going to stay home. i really do think there is some truth to that, though i think republicans probably lose either way because if they ram this through its going to look so bad with the independent voters that they need, but its also going to look really bad and probably sway the opinion of the people like lisa ...

Prepared testimony for that hearing. in it he talks about his high school years. quote, i was not perfect in those days just as im not perfect today. i drank beer with my friends. usually on weekends. sometimes i had too many. in retrospect, i said and did things in high school that make me cringe now. thats not why we are here today. i never did anything remotely resembling what dr. ford describes. still, he denies any and all sexual misconduct but now that there are three women making extremel...

And she could have charges made from many years ago also. >> but dont you understand, sir -- >> and i would look at the character. no, what i have to do -- >> are reluctant to come forward. you raised doubts about these accusers. >> i dont think people are reluctant to come forward. theyre going to have a chance to speak at a -- they have a major chance to speak. excuse me. excuse me. they have a major chance to speak. and it will be tomorrow, i assume. weve delayed this, meaning the republican ...

Handcuffs, i didnt want to be disappointed. i didnt know if that would happen or not. there is a part of me that still -- when you led off by saying he woke up behind bars in a blue jump suit, even that is still inconceivable. >> you hear some of cosbys victims there. you hear the victims feeling like the justice system finally worked. they didnt think they would see this day. >> reporter: and it took a long time for some of those accusers. and for andrea constand it took a long time. we are at ...

Senator kirsten gillibrand in new york. seth baron has covered her, watch very closely, associate editor of "city journal. seth, when you see senator gillibrand position herself as a defender of all women everywhere, what is your response to that? >> well, i dont know how it is that she has heard the two accusers and agrees with them because have they really said anything at? she is over very long history of embracing whatever is expedient and dispensing with whatever is no longer experienced ex...
