5 Evangelical Leaders React to Kavanaugh Sexual Assault Accusation
Ralph Reed
Reed, chairman of the national evangelical grassroots group Faith & Freedom Coalition who has also been involved in informally advising the Trump administration, issued similar thoughts to that of Graham.
In a Facebook post, Reed pointed out that there have been 1,325 written questions from U.S. Senators and "not one word" of them have been about the rape allegation. Likewise, there have been 65 meetings with U.S. Senators and the allegation "never came up." Even through 32 hours of public hearings, Reed stated there was "nothing" on the sexual assault allegations.
"Washington Post publishes a hit piece mentioning a one uncorroborated 36-year-old high school allegation, and we must delay or defeat the confirmation of Judge [Brett] Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court," Reed wrote. "This is a disgraceful, partisan debasement of the U.S. Senate and the confirmation process, and the fact that it was held until the eleventh-hour is suspicious at best and nefarious at worst."
