3. The Politico story is even more damning

For Senate Republicans, the question of the day is not if, but when, President Donald Trump pulls the plug on Ronny Jackson.

GOP support for the Veterans Affairs nominee has cratered in the face of allegations of misconduct as White House physician. Jackson already faced serious doubts over his lack of management experience. At this point, it would take a miraculous comeback by Jackson to survive at least two more weeks of scrutiny and growing discomfort among Republican senators over his nomination. [...]

But the GOP concern goes even deeper. Three Republican senators, granted anonymity, said they want the White House to withdraw the nomination immediately, calling it a self-inflicted wound that will only get worse with time.
