What was behind the nomination?
Seems like FEC Commissioner Petersen may not be leaving the FEC for the federal district court after all. This is pretty devastating and going viral among lawyers.https://twitter.com/senwhitehouse/status/941484131757838337 …

Ultimately, its sociopathy. Democrats would be ashamed to nominate such a coterie of incompetents. Republicans do so proudly and then Republicans confirm these incompetents because it is politically convenient for them to do so.

Daubert was decided in 1993 and Petersen graduated law school in 1999. The Daubert Standard is a fundamental doctrine of federal evidence and has been taught extensively in law schools since it was decided. How can he not know what it is? Not using it daily isn’t a valid excuse.

Wow... I was married to a lawyer for 23 years & worked as a receptionist in a law firm & I bet even I know more case law than this buffoon. These Trump nominees are beyond laughable, they’re dangerously inept. How the GOP must hate our country, to serve it so badly!

I don't have a whole lot of faith that the Senate will not confirm him in spite of this pathetic show of incompetence.
