Utopia Talk / Politics / Trump's judge pick a dud.

FoxNEWS rank	Sat Dec 16 01:26:50 2017 A viral video making the rounds Friday has one of President Trump's judicial nominees in an uncomfortable spotlight. Matthew Petersen has been nominated for a judgeship on the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, one of the nation's most important federal courts. Petersen is now a member of the Federal Election Commission. Politics About To Talk At FBI, Trump Slams The Agency, Opens Door To Pardoning Flynn But his trouble began during Wednesday's confirmation hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee when, among a panel of five nominees, he alone told Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., that he had never tried a case in court. It was all downhill from there. Kennedy zoomed in on Petersen. "Have you ever tried a jury trial?" Kennedy asked. "I have not," Petersen said. "Civil?" "No." "Criminal?" "No." "State or federal court?" "I have not." [...] "On it went for five uncomfortable minutes, as Petersen was unable to provide answers to the questions Kennedy posed." http://www...-answer-basic-questions-of-law Trumpicantards rejoice as Trump knows how to 'pick em.'

Hot Rod rank	Sat Dec 16 01:58:01 2017 Looks to me like he was able to answer every question that was asked of him.
Hot Rod rank	Sat Dec 16 01:59:30 2017 BTW, his staff has to locate and screen over 100 judges.
delude rank	Sat Dec 16 02:54:44 2017 "Looks to me like he was able to answer every question that was asked of him. " So you decided to just stay on shrooms and never come back down from the high?
Cold Rod rank	Sat Dec 16 02:57:27 2017 "Looks to me like he was able to answer every question that was asked of him. " Did you even watch the video retard rod? LMAO "able to answer every question." LOL
Hot Rod rank	Sat Dec 16 03:46:22 2017 My sound is broken. "Have you ever tried a jury trial?" Kennedy asked. "I have not," Petersen said. "Civil?" "No." "Criminal?" "No." "State or federal court?" "I have not." They may not be the appropriate answer or the expected answers, but those look like answers to me.
Cold Rod rank	Sat Dec 16 03:50:17 2017 Everyone knows what you are implying and inferring, retard rod.
Paramount rank	Sat Dec 16 12:39:07 2017 We knows that Hot Rod thinks Petersen is excellent for the job because Trump nominated him.
American Democrat rank	Sat Dec 16 15:09:34 2017 "Looks to me like he was able to answer every question" This is as painful as Renzo Marquez attempting to answer questions or being unable to do so. If by "able" you mean he had considerable skill, intelligence, and proficiency you are sorely mistaken as he clearly lacks it. If by "able" he was capable of just answering questions. Surely. Which hardly qualifies him for the position of such a prestigious honor. Standards are pretty low when Trump nominates. Most of his nominees have been poor.
Hot Rod rank	Sat Dec 16 21:04:38 2017 I'm just correcting the OP. "On it went for five uncomfortable minutes, as Petersen was unable to provide answers to the questions Kennedy posed." I read that as Peterson not being able to answer **any** of the questions when obviously, he was. You guys are always on my case for fucking up, that being the case you should hold yourselves to a higher standard than what you are in the habit of achieving.
Turtle Crawler rank	Sat Dec 16 21:21:14 2017 Haha yeah, if your going to post that he wasn't able to answer questions your quotes should probably be questions that he didn't answer.
Cold Rod rank	Sat Dec 16 22:00:37 2017 "I read that as Peterson not being able to answer **any** of the questions when obviously, he was. " That is because you have the poorest of comprehension skills than any human being on the face of the planet. As well as you admittedly not watching the video because "i don't have sound."
tumbleweed rank	Sat Dec 16 22:11:06 2017 KENNEDY: Just for the record, do you know what a motion in limine is? PETERSEN: I would probably not be able to give you a good definition right here at the table. KENNEDY: Do you know what the Younger abstention doctrine is? PETERSEN: I’ve heard of it, but I, again — KENNEDY: How about the Pullman abstention doctrine? PETERSEN: I — I — KENNEDY: Y’all see that a lot in federal court.
Paramount rank	Sat Dec 16 22:33:27 2017 Sounds like he wasn't able to answer.... lolz
Hot Rod rank	Sun Dec 17 07:14:21 2017 Damn, that sounds like Rosenstein.
