Trump sacks acting AG

[Aegon]

Just because he can fire her doesn't mean he should have. What's your argument for why he should have?

It doesn't matter what anybody thinks. Trump's the president. He has that right. Any arguing against it isn't going to change anything. Many of us didn't like Barack Obama but we were stuck with him for eight years anyway. The Republicans won, the democrats lost. Trump's in the White House. All the arguing back and forth isn't going to change that. You're stuck with Trump like we were stuck with BO.

He's a president not a king. If my President does something that I do not agree with I'm going to say something. Don't pretend the Republicans rolled over and let Obama do whatever he wanted just because he was POTUS... far from it, actually. 

I said earlier that she was refusing to do her job so it made sense she was fired, but now I understand that it's quite the opposite; it's the AG's job to inquiry into whether what they are enforcing is proper, and legal. The next AG, Sessions, even said so in Yates' confirmation hearings back in 2015. So, from that point of view, she was fired for doing her job correctly; she enforces and follows the law and the Constitution. If the POTUS asks the AG to enforce something deemed improper, they should take a stand, just like she did. 

"Trump's the president" ain't a good enough answer, sorry. Nobody should stand for that sort of response, no matter who sits in the Oval Office. "[x] is the president, doesn't matter what anybody thinks" is how you get a tyrant.
