Is he just sinking the designated sacrificial lamb to tout his bipartisan credentials, or does he have substantive objections to her nomination?


She was part of the Bernie screw job

I cant remember the specifics, but a couple of weeks ago, I read an article describing why she is a severely flawed nominee destined to draw fierce opposition from Republicans; and some comments were saying that this reeks of her being deliberately chosen as a sacrificial lamb. Also, isnt she a figure from Hillary-world?

She spent the last few years fighting the good fight against Republicans on social media. She made a number of derogatory comments about Bernie Sanders, McConnell, Collins, etc.

She even mocked and denigrated Biden back in 2015:

Yeah, I dont get why Biden nominated her in the first place. Just a vile person, her loyalties clearly lie with Hillary-world, not him, and she was guaranteed to be a lightning rod.

I assume then that you just haven't been following this. The director made that claim weeks ago with no caveat. She was publicly corrected by the Press Secretary, who claimed the CDC director was only speaking in a "private capacity". She got the message, and the CDC promptly issued new guidelines.

Schools have safely reopened across the country (private), and community spread has never been linked to reopening so long as the right mitigation efforts are in place.

There are estimates that we are losing millions of years, collectively, off life expectance as a result of this. It will dwarf, vastly, and risk that a teacher might lose their life. It will primarily impact minority students. But Biden couldn't care less, the unions own him.

neither do most swamp demon lifelong politicians like the current admin and leaders of congress, among others no matter which party. if they actually fix the issues affecting Americans, in particular ones that are most aggrieved by the very policies they put in place, then they have nothing to run on for their never-ending reelection campigns

I guess in theory that's a legitimate reason to oppose someone's nomination... but Manchin supported Twitter troll Ric Grenell for ambassador to Germany... so I guess he has higher standards now.

Refreshing to have an adult in the White House who doesn't hold petty grudges.

well, you could have made the same argument for trump employing kellyanne conway, or endorsing lindsey graham then to be fair. i mean, there's no doubt that trump was extremely petty and vindictive, and biden is clearly a bigger person than that, but making a political calculation concerning your administration is hardly proof of character imo...
