    I think it’s inevitable that she will be stripped off this case, but I don’t know shit.

    Her incompetence, purposeful or not, is staggering.

      It’s almost as if she was conveniently placed at her exact position without actually being qualified.

        It’s important to note that there is ONE qualification for a federal judgeship: be approved by the Senate. That’s it.

        She was conveniently selected as a judge. Yes. And she’s obviously unqualified.

        She was not selected by hand for the case.

        The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida isn’t trying to be embarrassed. The docket/judge assignments by all accounts, including the expertise of US attorneys and people who dislike trump, are chosen by automation.

          I don’t know anything about this bit that seems like a hell of a coincidence.

          I thought she was selected in order to reduce the scope for appeals.

            No. The venue was selected to reduce the possibility for appeals and delays. But they have the DC case. It was calculated by the special council. They knew the risk with Florida, regarding the jury pool and roll of the side on the judge.
