Typical libtard scum that you fully support:

Sen. Collins describes illegal bribes and
threats of liberal groups that tried
to buy her and it’s jolting


Sen. Susan Collins believes the nation has come to a “very sad place” as opponents of Justice Brett Kavanaugh attempt to “buy votes and buy positions.” The Maine Republican has been feeling the aftermath of her affirmative vote for the Supreme Court nominee which secured his confirmation, which she discussed with Scott Pelley on “60 Minutes” Sunday. (Video) The anti-Kavanaugh groups targeted the senator ahead of the vote and continued the attacks after she voted ‘yes,’ taking up the offensive as well in her home state.“A website went up over these last couple of weeks collecting funds for whoever your opponent may be in 2020,” Pelley said. “And the deal was that if you voted for Kavanaugh, then the credit card pledges would be processed. If you voted against Kavanaugh they wouldn’t process the credit card numbers,” he continued. “And something over $2 million was raised.”

Collins denounced the fundraising tactic as a blatant and illegal attempt at bribery.

“This is a classic quid pro quo as defined in our bribery laws,” she said.

“They are asking me to perform an official act and if I do not do what they want, $2 million plus is going to go to my opponent,” she added. “I think that if our politics has come to the point where people are trying to buy votes and buy positions, then we are in a very sad place.”
