13 Biting Twitter Reactions to Susan Collins' Support of Brett Kavanaugh
Susan Collins announced today that she will vote "yes" to confirm Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court nomination. And while the official vote has yet to take place on the Senate floor, her statement is an indicator that Kavanaugh will likely be confirmed-it means the Republicans will most likely have the majority they need.
Twitter, naturally, is ablaze with heartfelt concern, disappointment, and, of course...memes. Ahead, the most biting reactions of them all.
