Only suckers think any swamps are getting drained

Can the editor of Above the Law (left wing blog) name just one female candidate to Kavanaugh's clerkship who is more qualified than Sophia? He can't.[/quote]

that's absurd. there are likely hundreds if not thousands of young female law grads just as qualified as she is. This is payola, clear as day. Sophia will be ostracized by elite legal institutions and will have to scrape the bottom of the barrel after she peters out at her post-clerkship firm job. [/quote]

Please just name one who applied and didn’t get it.[/quote]

I didn't realize that's how this works. I guess we should assume no one is more qualified than Javanka to be White House advisors too since we don't have the names and resumes of the other applicants.

What nepotism? What swamp?? Nothing like that going on over here. [/quote]

+1. Just because no one has names they are willing to name publicly doesn’t mean that the process isn’t corrupt and driven by connections.[/quote]

How do you prove a negative?[/quote]

Do you require names of people more qualified than Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump to recognize that more qualified candidates to be special adviser to the President exist?   Sometimes the most obvious explanation is the right one.  Concluding that the daughter of a female law professor who went out of her way to defend the judge hiring her daughter against sexism  is benefiting from her mother’s favor to kavanaugh is pretty obvious.   There are tons of qualified candidates for clerkships.  If Sophia Chua were so qualified she would have gotten an offer from another conservative judge with better optics for her like Roberts or Alito. [/quote]

+1  It's been a few hours and already the press coverage has been brutal.  If Sophia were truly talented, she would have gotten a clerkship with someone less damaged and less connected to her damaged mother than Kavanaugh.
