Senator Flake's Journey to Defying Trump on Supreme Court Nominee

 

"Something happened to U.S. Republican Senator Jeff Flake between being cornered in a Capitol elevator on Friday as two women shouted at him about sexual assault and, hours later, cutting a momentous deal with Democrats to defy President Donald Trump.

 

Flake's shift from full-throated support for Brett Kavanaugh to demanding an FBI investigation of sexual misconduct allegations against Trump's Supreme Court nominee was seemingly swift, with Democratic Senator Chris Coons playing a key role.

 

The outcome of the Flake-Coons deal was that Kavanaugh's path to Senate confirmation for a lifetime appointment to the nation's highest court will, at minimum, be delayed for a week as the FBI looks into the accusations made against him."
