Sen. Susan Collins on Casting a Deciding Vote on Kavanaugh
Heading into the confirmation hearing of President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) was one of the few undecided senators. She tells FRONTLINE she faced intimidation and harassment: “I received a fax in which the person threatened to cut off my arms and legs and slit my throat if I voted for Judge Kavanaugh.”
In this extensive interview conducted by Michael Kirk on Dec. 12, 2018 during the making of FRONTLINE’s “Supreme Revenge,” Collins, who ultimately cast a deciding vote in Kavanaugh’s favor, speaks out about her decision-making process — including how she reacted when she learned of Christine Blasey Ford’s sexual assault allegation against Kavanaugh (which Kavanaugh denied).
