I had the same thought. Maybe this a way to get rid of another Obama stooge and make a headline of it. The news media avoids all things the make Democrats look bad. So if she does something really stupid, she can be fired very rapidly and with big headlines “Former Obama Employee Fired for Incompetence” or something like that.
The MSM would have a field day with the headline, given that Trump’s General is the guy bringing her in for a key role.
