we are calling on the united states senate slulg to reject thomas farr and let's just start over. let's wait for this congress to expire, come back into the 116th congress and let's find a consensus candidate, someone who can be fair and impartial and who does not bring the baggage that thomas farr brings to this process. >> let's talk about someone now who played such a big role in the confirmation of brett kavanaugh because manu raju is reporting is senator susan collins says she will likely vote in favor of farr. but senator tim scott of south carolina isn't on board. senator jeff flake says he will decide on the merits. how do you see this playing out? >> well, all of the democrats in the united states senate are united in opposition to thomas farr. we believe senator flake is going to be voting no, and hopefully we can get senator scott or one of the other republican senators who really understands the importance of the judiciary to vote against this nomination.
