now, the reason why is because he will be confirmed by the u.s. senate, where there's a very slight republican majority right now. that could in theory change with the midterm elections, hehence why there'e's a little of haste on behalf of the republicans in the u.s. senate and on behalf of the white house. now, democrats want to oppppose any supreme court justice who would have been nominated by donald trump, and certainly brett kavanaugh, because they believe thatat maybe in the future he might want to go back on a supreme court decision from 1973. that is precisely the decision that made abortion legal throughout the united states. that is something that democrats would definitely want stopped. they need to get just one republican voluntary to have vote against brett kavanaugh for this whole process to fall apart. but the white house is optimistic this can be a pretty straight forward confirmation battle far brett kavanaugh. it will be ugly, but it is pretty likely that he will be confirmed before those midterm elections in november. >> president trum

u.s. senators. how does that work? how does it work nominating a justice to the supreme court when you're under federal investigation? and what if that justice is then asked to rule on your case? >> i think this is problematic. look, i don't think that he should be able to nominate a justice while he's under investigation. i think this puts the president in the lame duck category that mitch mcconnell put president obama in when he was, you know, too close to the election and under the mcconnell rule. it seems that ship has sailed and this nomination is going to happen. i think what democrats need to do now is really look at what kavanaugh has said about the presidential power and about a president being -- whether a president should be under investigation. and there is some debate about what his article that he wrote -- >> the minnesota law journal. >> exactly. >> we think he'll get grilled on that. >> and he should. because whether or not trump picked him because he seems to have this view of the strong executive, man
