Senator Mike Braun, would-be constitutional authority. Photo: Sarah Silbiger/Bloomberg via Getty Images It’s not easy for a non–Judiciary Committee senator to make news on constitutional law even as his colleagues are engaged in hearings on a U.S. Supreme Court nomination. But Indiana senator Mike Braun managed to do that in an interview with reporters from his state.
Later Tuesday, presumably after Braun’s staff frantically reached him following the publication of the interview he had granted, the Hoosier lawmaker briskly walked back his remarks: It’s unclear how Braun “misunderstood” such a direct question — indeed, one reporter said the question was “asked multiple times in different ways to ensure Braun meant and understood what he said concerning interracial marriage” — but maybe he just meant he misunderstood constitutional law.
