She’s the gift that keeps on giving.

Elena Kagan had zero judicial experience too.

Feinstein brushed off complaints from Kagan’s critics that lack of experience on the bench makes her unqualified.

"In my own view," Feinstein said, "judicial experience is a useful background. But it’s only one of many. And it’s a background that’s well represented on the court today - as a matter of fact, entirely represented on the court today."

Feinstein pointed out that since the Supreme Court first convened 220 years ago, a third of its justices had no judicial experience before joining the court.
