#When Kamala Harris was ‘extraordinarily nasty’ to Brett Kavanaugh

President Trump on Tuesday attacked Kamala Harris for being “extraordinarily nasty” to Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation hearings.

Harris, who Joe Biden had earlier announced as his running mate, went viral for aggressively questioning Kavanaugh’s sexual misconduct allegations during the justice’s heated 2018 confirmation hearings, where she also touched on abortion laws and Trump’s reaction to the 2017 white supremacist rally in Charlottesville.

“She was extraordinarily nasty to Kavanaugh, Judge Kavanaugh, now Justice Kavanaugh,” Trump said during a Tuesday briefing. “She was nasty to a level that was just a horrible thing the way she was, the way she treated now-Justice Kavanaugh. And I won’t forget that soon.”

Harris, a former prosecutor, expanded her profile back in 2018 with her grilling of Kavanaugh, who was left with a loss of words when Harris referred to abortion regulations.

“Can you think of any laws that give government the power to make decisions about the male body?” Harris asked at one point.

The two went back and forth on the question before Kavanaugh eventually concluded, “I’m not aware of any right now, senator.”

The former California attorney general also prodded Kavanaugh as to whether he agreed with Trump’s comments in response to the Charlottesville rally that “both sides” were to blame for the violence that overtook the event.

Kavanaugh managed to dodge Harris on that question. He eventually was successful in being approved to the Supreme Court.

“I am not here to assess comments made in the political arena, because the risk is I’ll be drawn into the political arena,” he responded.
