Trump made a huge............HUGE mistake by not removing Obama favoring Ambassadors(and others) upon taking office. You can’t fire 20-30 ambassadors in one fell swoop, but over a period of six months or so there should have been a clean sweep. Ms. BokanoBitch, should have been one of the first to go.
The Clintons fired ALL 55 DOJ LAYERS AT THE SAME TIME UPON TAKING CONTROL OF THE DOJ.
Some were even in the middle of Court trials!....................
I think he received very, very bad advice, probably from someone who is now his enemy. Remember the guy was not a politician, he knew the Swamp was in DC, but maybe not how deeply they hated him, nor how much THEY hated the USA.
That’s the problem. How would he have known who to fire?
Tillitson didn’t have that knowledge.
Clinton fired all of the US attorneys. Trump hasn’t. Nor has he cleaned out other agencies wholesale.
Why can’t you fire 20-30 in one fell swoop? Seriously, what work does an ambassador actually do? I’m sure that all of those guys and gals could go and we’d just put a note on the door, check back later..... all they ever want is money anyway. There could remain staff to handle issues with our citizens out of the country.
“You cant fire 20-30 ambassadors in one fell swoop,”
I don’t see why not. Most of them are just figureheads — cushy-job paybacks to people who support(ed) a POTUS. Diplomatic experience might help, but isn’t necessary.
