How is this relevant? Obama wasn't nominated for a lifetime appointment to the bench. Having trial experience isn't something needed to be president


It also isn't needed to be a federal judge. If someone isnit a litigator they would not be familiar with abstention doctrines and daubert. The motion in Liminie was something he learned in law school. However, it is silly to call someone who wasn't a litigator dumb because he doesn't know common litigation issues.

If you are making the argument that all federal judges must be former litigators, fine. Calling this guy dumb is silly.

I mean you probably don’t need 20 years doing pure litigation, but trial experience and knowledge of the concepts is pretty critical to the job.
