They can just wait a year. Either the Republicans will give them what they want, or the Biden Administration won't have to keep Khan around because they made it through the presidential election.
If Biden (or Newsom or whoever) squeaks in, they'll be looking to appeal to the right for the midterms, and lightly smearing and firing Khan might actually help them. The WSJ, in particular, has declared her enemy no.1, and the Biden WH has almost seemed embarrassed about the only person in their administration that could get them unambiguously good press, because they don't actually support her.
Why didn't they make Khan their "Dr. Fauci"? Why didn't they push social media companies to amplify accounts that supported her work, or to suppress accounts that spread misinformation or negativity about it?
