Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, also called for both to testify, saying he spoke to Kavanaugh by phone Monday. "I want to have both individuals come before the Senate Judiciary Committee and testify under oath," Collins said to reporters Monday on Capitol Hill. President Donald Trump said he's open to a delay in order to keep the process going and eventually confirm Kavanaugh. I am willing to talk to the Senate Judiciary Committee in any way the committee deems appropriate to refute this false allegation, from 36 years ago, and defend my integrity." The 53-year-old judge was there to meet with the White House legal team to prepare for potential interviews or questions from the Judiciary Committee, a source familiar with the matter said.
