Maybe the GOP is cancelling her just to throw a wrench into Biden's operation?
Maybe it's just flexing its cancellation muscles?
If it's the latter, this is exactly the sort of precedent I was concerned we'd see. I don't like the politics of anyone who blows kisses to Bill Kristol, but she's clearly qualified. If this is just the GOP having fun experimenting with executive level cancel culture, it's a really fucking ominous harbinger of what's coming in the future.

The person who screwed her is Manchin. Once Manchin says what he said, why would a GOP Senator throw her a lifeline? Their basic instinct is to f*ck with Biden unless there's something in it for them.
