adam keefe, thank you very much. president trump said yesterday he would be watching the hearings and he held open the possibility he might pull the kavanagh nomination yesterday depending on what he saw today. well, he did watch and apparently from what we're hearing he liked what he saw. weijia jiang is at the white house with more reaction from there. weija? >> reporter: jeff, i want to get right to president trump's tweet that he posted minutes ago. it is the first and only time he has chimed in about this hearing today, saying judge kavanagh showed america exactly why i nominated him. his testimony was powerful, honest and riveting. democrats' skpand destroy strat is disgraceful and this has been a total sham and effort to delay, obstruct and resist. the senate must vote. and you're right, all day white house officials say they were pleased with kavanagh's performance because he used such a defiant and strong tone, which is what they were waiting for after a reecent performance on news interview in which he was
