Melania Trump has weighed in on the controversy surrounding Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, reports Time.
"I think he's highly qualified for the Supreme Court," she told reporters traveling with her in Egypt. "I'm glad that [Dr. Christine Blasey] Ford was heard. I'm glad that judge Kavanaugh was heard. The FBI investigation was done - is completed."
However, she declined to answer when asked if she believed the testimony of Dr. Ford, who has accused Kavanaugh of sexual assault while they were in high school.
The first lady did add: "We need to help all the victims, no matter what kind of abuse they had. I'm against any kind of abuse or violence."
Kavanaugh has faced multiple allegations since his nomination.
Despite the controversy, CNN is reporting that the judge appears to have enough votes in the Senate to be confirmed to the Supreme Court.
