She continued to post inflammatory comments after the election but this time, Dave Filoni contacted her and asked her to refrain and again, she refused. Finally, Jon Favreau contacted her and asked her to refrain and again, she refused.
Disney felt they had no choice but to fire her, as did her talent agency.
Disney isn't going to "die on the hill" of a D-list actress. All she had to do to keep her job was to refrain from posting on social media and all would have been fine.

Sucks, but I don't think it's in her DNA to back down from a fight.
