Apparently her mental scars should disqualify her from any position in government. She is a liar and even though that is at the top of the requirements for a Government job. Lying to congress should have her tossed.
That, unless they made her stronger. Though I disagree on lying, generally, because expungement - depending by state, and internet records - means that what was expunged simply didn't happen, meaning her answer was accurate.
But if she was genuinely a victim at the hands of her ex, it was a valid discussion in her Senate process, expungement or not. As it stands now, she has painted herself of poor moral character with severe judgement deficit and the consequences of her choice to not disclose is now an order of magnitude worse than what would have been a short Senate process discussing lessons learned and, in theory, how it made her stronger (the correct tack, if accurate).
Under normal circumstances I'd be impressed that one of a protected class did NOT play the victim card to help her confirmation process.
However, the bottom line: She is too STUPID to hold her position (she should have verified that the records wouldn't turn up due to her state's apparent 'incomplete' process, let alone that her ex might talk to the media) and obviously has extremely poor judgement, perhaps resulting from her "mental scars."
Obviously being a protected class in this era has different values and she should be removed for her actions...and be made an example.
But I won't hold my breath for reasons we all know too well...
