President Donald Trump defended Brett Kavanaugh at a press conference Wednesday, stating that even if George Washington was put forward as a nominee Democrats would vote against him. Trump also questioned whether Washington “may have had a bad past.”

"If we brought George Washington here, and we say this is George Washington, the Democrats would vote against him," Trump said. "He may have had a bad past. Who knows?”

Trump continued: "He may have had some—I think accusations made. Didn’t he have a couple of things in his past?” George Washington would be voted against 100 percent by [Senate Minority Leader, Chuck] Schumer and the con artists."
