re: #402 SteveMcGazi

Is she speculating that Christie withdrew the judge’s nomination? Was she speculating about the date and time of the email? Was she speculating about Christie getting rid of the judge early in his first term? I don’t see any speculation on her part.

post hoc, ergo propter hoc.

She’s given a true and accurate timeline, but it’s pure speculation that what happened second was specifically in reaction to what happened first. Plausible, but far from proven.
