There's an argument to be made on the political basis, but unfortunately the choice of conservative was poor given the complete lack of qualifications and unnecessarily toxic public speech background. It's really worthwhile to vet your selections in advance to ensure they're not militant anarchists or antisemites or homophobes or anything else in their historical tweets or public speeches - regardless of their expertise on the subject (in this case, also none) it prevents them from doing their job without interference. There are numerous conservatives you could find to do the job who wouldn't have set off this controversy.
