Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh said they would not overturn landmark abortion ruling, Susan Collins and Joe Manchin say

Guardian:

“I feel misled,” the Maine senator Susan Collins told the New York Times.

Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia, the lone Democrat to back Kavanaugh, voiced similar sentiments. “I trusted Justice Gorsuch and Justice Kavanaugh when they testified under oath that they also believed Roe v Wade was settled legal precedent and I am alarmed they chose to reject the stability the ruling has provided for two generations of Americans,” the Times reported him saying.

Susan Collins, and Joe Manchin, claim to feel they were misled by Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch, and the Guardian reports this seemingly without irony. Although maybe there’s irony here. There easily could be, and I’m just not getting it.
