'The Bachelorette' was interrupted by Trump's SCOTUS pick. No, viewers were not fine.
Donald Trump has named Judge Brett Kavanaugh to replace Anthony Kennedy in the U.S. Supreme Court — but will he accept this rose?
The Bachelorette fans have complained that Trump's SCOTUS nomination of Kavanaugh, a federal appeals court judge who worked in the Bush White House, interrupted Monday night's show.
Host Chris Harrison tweeted a heads up in the lead-up to the episode, but it didn't seem to smooth things over with angry viewers.

Bachelorette viewers are done with this interruption shit, after having survived the same damn thing during Trump's recent landmark meeting with North Korea's Leader Kim Jong-un. During that handshake, The Bachelorette was again paused.
Hell hath no fury like a Bachelorette fan scorned.
