He couldn't fire the guy and put someone less MAGA

He could, but he should have just never appointed him in the first place. He was nominated for the SC because he was inoffensive to Republicans. It's not a grand political maneuver to put him in when your party controls the confirmation process and there are important Republicans that need to be brought to justice.
