Maine faces consumer backlash after Senator Susan Collins backs Kavanaugh

Maine faces backlash after Susan Collins backs Brett Kavanaugh - Bloomberg

Businesses in Maine are facing a backlash after  Susan Collins, the state’s Republican senator, decided to back the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.

Two of Maine's biggest industries,  lobster fishing and tourism, are facing a consumer boycott following Ms Collins' key vote in the most hotly contested appointment to the Supreme Court since that of Clarence Thomas in 1991.

The state's lobster industry is already reeling because of the punitive tariffs imposed by China as a result of the trade war launched by the Trump Administration.

The Senate confirmed Mr Kavanaugh by 50 votes to 48 with Lisa Murkowski, another Republican, voting against his appointment but Joe Manchin, a Democrat from West Virginia, backing President Trump’s nominee.

Ms Collins had been one of the waverers as Mr Kavanaugh faced a wave of sexual misconduct allegations, which he angrily denied.

His confirmation infuriated women's rights campaigners and the controversy has shown little sign of abating in the aftermath of the vote.

A crowdfunding campaign has already raised $3 million for any Democrat who runs against Ms Collins in 2020.

The boycott campaign took off when John Fugelsang, a comedian and actor, took to Twitter to voice his disgust to his 413,000 followers.

“Dear Susan Collins – I really struggled with this but my tourist $ just voted against ever visiting Maine while you remain in office,”  he tweeted.

Mr Fugelsang has since said he was only joking, but already people have been voting with their wallets.

They include John Tesar, the owner of six restaurants in Texas, who spends hundreds of thousands of dollars on Maine seafood every year.

He said he will look elsewhere in order to encourage Maine’s fishermen to vote her out of office.

“My intention was not to harm the Maine fishing industry, but to encourage people to take a stand for what they believe in, especially come election day, to remove people who supported Kavanaugh, and subscribe to his treatment of women,’ he said.

“Moving forward, I will educate myself on the source of the seafood we use in my restaurants and understand who is providing it and who they support politically, to make better decisions.

Mark Murrell, who runs GetMaineLobster.com, is among the businesses which bore the brunt of those incensed by Ms Collins’ vote.

“We had customers who have contacted us saying they are boycotting us because of her speech and vote,” said Mr Murrell.

“Basically they want businesses like ours to hustle and vote her out. But she is not up for re-election until 2020.

“But we have also had people from the other side who, after they read the story, contacted me and said they were going to order more.”

Mr Murrell said he had written to Senator Collins following her decision. “I was not happy with the course she took.”

The Telegraph approached Senator Collins’ office, which declined to comment.

Former Obama White House official Jen Psaki, appearing on CNN’s “State of the Union," derided Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, as a “fake” feminist for her support of Brett Kavanaugh, who was confirmed to the Supreme Court on Saturday amid allegations of sexual assault.

Collins was considered a key swing-vote until she confirmed her support for Kavanaugh during a floor speech on Friday.

"(Collins) struck a nerve to me in what she said and how she voted, because that’s political cowardice,” Psaki said on the Sunday broadcast. “That is somebody who is pretending to be a feminist but that is a fake feminism.”
