Some journalist really needs to collar Manchin and ask him how he justifies opposing Tanden when he voted for Sessions, Barr, Grennell, Pompeo, Kavanaugh. He presumably thinks she is worse than they were, or that Biden has less right to pick his staff than Trump did.
I should delete that tweet (but I won't give myself the easy way out) because on second thought it's shockingly deficient by not considering the very real and perhaps most likely possibility that it's because she's a woman and/or of color. So he REALLY needs to be interrogated.
Also, Manchin voted to confirm Grenell (cx spelling), not for his job as acting DNI, which did not require confirmation, but for German ambassadorship,
