There are many problems with the current law school education (too much emphasis on case law, not enough discussion about law and political economy, not enough emphasis on the role and necessity of administrative law, etc.)

But appointing someone to be a judge without legal training is quite worrying.

Personally, I see it as a continued effort by the GOP to sew discord and chaos into our democratic system, ultimately to undermine it.
