Washington sources reported that US President Donald Trump defended embattled Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh Monday, but said that the appeals court judge has had a "bit of difficulty" with alcohol.  Meanwhile Trump called Kavanaugh's treatment unfair, days after the FBI opened a Senate requested probe into allegations by three women that a drunken Kavanaugh sexually abused them while they were students in the 1980's.



Meanwhile in a White House press conference, Trump sought to excuse excessive drinking by teenagers, while going beyond Kavanaugh's own testimony on his past use of alcohol to the Senate Judiciary Committee last Thursday. The President said "He was surprised at how vocal he was about the fact that he likes beer”.

Moreover he questioned why investigators needed to examine the 53 year old Kavanaugh's high school record. Trump said “He thinks it's very unfair to bring up things like this”. He said “He graduated from high school and while he did not drink, he saw a lot of people drinking”. When testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday, Kavanaugh vehemently denied the sexual abuse allegations, and also aggressively challenged suggestions he had an alcohol problem at the time.
