No, it's just grievance. Esper got on his shitlist back in July and he was always planning to fire him after the election whether he won or not. He's going to fire all the people he thinks didn't "support him" enough. Even Barr is on that shitlist for his failures with the Hunter Biden and "Obamagate" fake scandal attempts.More likely, Trump is up to something nefarious and these folks wouldn't comply.
So what's to stop Trump in the next 2 months from just randomly declaring "war" and bombing a random country House of Cards style? I could see him leaving in the most scorched earth possible way if he feels he has no way out
I'm sure Trump really gives a fuck about Georgia.Firing everyone and creating chaos doesn't seem like a winning strategy for Georgia.
Would Biden reinstall Fauci when he takes over, assuming Trump fires him?
It's lovely. Hopefully he goes scorch Earth and hurt the GOP's chances for the runoff.
Well it's not fiction.... so the generals not following the insane orders would be how that would be stopped.
So your now telling me he can freely use troops to calm unrest when he refuses to leave office right?
if he refuses to leave, the only person the troops are coming for is himSo your now telling me he can freely use troops to calm unrest when he refuses to leave office right?
You can't just "refuse to leave". He was elected for a four year term, January 2017 to January 2021. When that comes, he is no longer president.So your now telling me he can freely use troops to calm unrest when he refuses to leave office right?
That's not how it works. The Joint Chiefs of Staff will kick him out if he doesn't leave. He will not be President by then, thus he has no authority.So your now telling me he can freely use troops to calm unrest when he refuses to leave office right?
Well he already tried it in DC so you can't particularly say that's not how it works with trumpThat's not how it works. The Joint Chiefs of Staff will kick him out if he doesn't leave. He will not be President by then, thus he has no authority.

It doesn't matter. He can't refuse to leave. Come 1/20/2021, Biden is POTUS.Well he already tried it in DC so you can't particularly say that's not how it works with trump
Trump is doing that because he knows Mitch will just push through whoever he picks in the republican-controlled senate. Biden can make people "acting" as much as he wants -- Mitch and the republican majority will just shoot them down and make him look like a fool.
This what this idiot is trying to doWell he already tried it in DC so you can't particularly say that's not how it works with trump
In theory he could always do that, he's the commander and chief and Esper's boss after all.So your now telling me he can freely use troops to calm unrest when he refuses to leave office right?
Wanna bet?They cant just leave those positions empty though. Biden can fire all of Trumps appointees and the senate has to fill them. They cant just let all these positions be left unfilled.
So, what is the orange monkey up to that Esper wouldn't let him?
Yeah, hasn't Trump done this before, where someone resigns so he rushes to "fire" them? Classic narcissist power move. YOU CAN'T QUIT, YOU'RE FIRED!But yeah, let's also remember a few days ago everyone was reporting Esper had prepared a resignation letter
This honestly makes no sense at this juncture unless hes doing it just to spite these folks

Yeah he's just wasting time twiddling his thumbs at the CDC. At least if he got fired he could start getting to work with Biden's team
Pretty sure Biden doesn't want any senators in cabinet positions anyway so they don't risk the GOP flipping that seatWanna bet?
They can and they will until Biden puts forth a candidate they can live with. You can kiss the possibility of Bernie or any other progressive having a seat in Biden's cabinet goodbye.
No, he had just prepared a letter of resignation. No indication he ever submitted it.Didn't he literally JUST resign?
You can't fire him. He quit.
You, bitch, on the other hand, were fired.
