Letter: Hatch is cold and heartless
(Tom Williams/Pool Image via AP) Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, left, listens to testimony from Christine Blasey Ford as chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, speaks with staff during the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on the nomination of Brett M. Kavanaugh, Thursday, Sept. 27, 2018 on Capitol Hill in Washington.
Utah Republican Sen. Orrin Hatch rudely and insensitively told some sexual assault protesters, who included some sexual assault survivors, to "grow up." This shows just how out of touch he is with the current times. He seems cold and heartless, without a hint of compassion. He is leaving Congress at the right time.
