Confirmation hearings for Supreme Court Nominee Brett Kavanaugh wrapped up late last week, but the vote has yet to be scheduled. In this week’s Political Junkie segment, Ken Rudin discusses opposition to Kavanaugh’s confirmation and what we learned about President Trump’s pick. He’ll also talk about Bob Woodward’s new book “Fear: Trump in the White House” and continued fall out from last week’s anonymous op-ed in New York Times.
