This is my shocked face 😐

You people are insane. It’s not her job to game the appointment process to ensure that a particular President gets to appoint her replacement. She’s not a political operative.

Those two votes are far from unconscionable though. I’m not quite on the Beto 2020 hype train, nor have I read the full report (which I will), but if those two votes are examples of the most egregious, then I say, “so fucking what???”
