She’s good and she’s honest. She was a great support to Trump at the UN, and left on good terms...basically, I think, because she realized that other Administration people were actually undermining both her and Trump at every turn and she didn’t feel she was up to hand-to-hand combat with these people.
I have family in SC, and they said that after the 2015 massacre in Charleston, for which the killer (grandson of an important SC judge) claimed Confederate inspiration,, there really wasn’t any way she could keep that flag. He was crazy, but she did the best thing she could do, which was defuse the issue except with some out of staters. Most people in SC didn’t like this but understood it because of the awfulness of the crime against innocent people.
It was a Governors’ job to restore order, as quickly was possible. She did the only thing that would cabash that building inferno.

Something similar happened in Baltimore too.
