Ex-White House ethics chief: Kavanaugh testimony a 'taste' of his aggression while drunk

BY MORGAN GSTALTER - 09/27/18 04:37 PM EDT

Former White House ethics chief Norm Eisen said Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s emotional testimony Thursday is a “taste” of what Kavanaugh must act while drinking.

Kavanaugh appeared before the Senate Judiciary Committee and presented a forceful opening statement to deny the allegations that he sexually harassed multiple women.

He addressed senators with a furrowed brow, at times speaking at almost a yelling volume.

Eisen, who served as the White House ethics chief under President Obama, said Kavanaugh’s testimony showcased his temper.




Eisen wrote that he was watching the day's testimony from an airplane, adding that there were "audible gasps" around him when Kavanaugh "started losing it."

He tweeted that everyone around him was watching the hearings by whatever means necesssary.
