The principle is the same as when Truman fired MacArthur.
I’m the one who got elected. I call the shots.
Heck, the principle is that same as with anyone who gets fired for not doing their job.
Excellent analogy. While I may not agree with Truman’s position, he was the President. MacArthur should have resigned in protest instead of making Harry fire him.
If Yates truly believed Trump’s order was unconstitutional she should have told him that and resigned if he failed to accept her legal view.
