I would suggest it went down something like this...”Resign or be fired, take you choice. Either way, (with the extra bonus in this brown envelope), we need a scapegoat and you have been selected”.

We’ve gotta protect the “Commander in Chief”......

Hands up if you think firing the substitute teacher will improve a classroom.

He lied, and this isn’t a poor bastard. He performed similar tasks for Clinton - Disbarred, impeached, esq.

If Holder feels the heat too much, rest assured she’ll be sacrificed.

I didn’t intend to imply that I had any sympathy for him. I meant it more as “one pathetic bum fired? That’s it?”

I didn’t think you meant that this particular conpirator should be pitied.

This is the tip of the iceberg, and Zero making sure it doesn’t happen in the future is the WRONG answer. Federal prison is the correct answer.

Spiro Agnew also resigned and that did not save Nixon.

All the President’s Men and Women all over again.
