U.S. President Donald Trump uses the bitter Senate confirmation battle for Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh to try to boost Republican voter enthusiasm and prevent a Democratic takeover of Congress in the Nov. 6 elections.

U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday (October 9) used the bitter Senate confirmation battle for Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh to try to boost Republican voter enthusiasm and prevent a Democratic takeover of Congress in the Nov. 6 elections.

At a political rally in support of Iowa and Nebraska Republican candidates, Trump criticized the Democrats’ attempt to block Kavanaugh from the high court without mentioning the sexual assault accusation raised by Christine Blasey Ford when she and Kavanaugh were high school students in 1982.

“They wanted to destroy that man. Of course, they want to destroy me too,” Trump told a cheering crowd at an arena in Council Bluffs, Iowa, a city near Omaha, Nebraska.

At his Iowa event, Trump said a Democratic takeover of Congress could allow Democrats to impeach Kavanaugh, a prospect some Democrats have raised.
