This is third world cronyism. The lady has never even been a judge.
There is no requirement that a USSC Justice needs to have been a judge.
James Wilson, the first USSC Justice, had no prior judicial experience. There have been many justices who were not judges. It's a good thing in my book, not a bad thing.
Rehnquist was never a judge either, as have a number of SCOTUS members.

That's a PLUS, there is no such requirement.
The lady has never even been a judge.
That COULD be a good thing. Maybe she will bring some good ol' Texas common sense to the bench.
