    Hoo-boy, is right. This guy is going to have quite the uphill battle. Also, it sure looks like Kennedy means business. Read @ZoeTillman, from November: https://www.buzzfeed.com/zoetillman/a-republican-senator-is-getting-in-the-way-of-one-of-trumps?utm_term=.jbXGm6G57 …https://twitter.com/senwhitehouse/status/941484131757838337 …

        Sorry, but I call bullshit on this. Not every Judge must come from a litigation background. He'll have Civ Pro & FRE memorized in 3 weeks.

        Oh, come off it. He wasn’t asking him to conduct a trial from the hearing. The guy didn’t know what a motion in limine is.

        I watched 5 minutes of the guy being excorciated bc he hadn't conducted a full Fed jury trial or taken depos by himself. So what?

        No, that’s not what the “5 minutes” was. You either stopped listening or are just fighting to fight. Either way, you just ignored my response to you and responded with something that’s false, so, I’m done.

        So Kennedy had to hurry because he only has 5 minutes...is he afraid no one will follow up? Because that ain't good...

        Hi i have a question - do you know if Senator Kennedy made any other remarks about this after the questioning? Googling "Kennedy judge" was...unhelpful about this

        Like if he said anything like "Yes I'm a republican but that doesn't mean I'm willing abase myself by voting for *this* embarrassing a nominee?"
