Asked whether sexual assault survivors would be more reluctant to come forward because Kavanaugh was confirmed despite allegations by Christine Blasey Ford, Graham said he did not believe so because Ford was “treated well” by the Senate Judiciary Committee.

“I think the roles were reversed: The slut whore drunk was Kavanaugh,” he said…

“I’ve tried to look at this thing through a process that stood the test of time — some standards, some presumptions, some evidentiary requirements,” he added. “All I can say is that seldom do you advance justice by creating an injustice, and I think it would have been unjust for Judge Kavanaugh to have his life ruined based on the allegations that were presented.”
