Why are Republican men so WEAK? (Sessions)

[pdsimdars]

Sessions had said that he would NOT resign but that Trump would have to fire him. And then he resigned. Why are they all so weak? He sounded so tough and strong when he said he would not resign.. . and then tucks his tail and runs. What is wrong with them? I thought they were the party of the big, strong men.

1. He was fired.

When a President asks a cabinet officer to resign they are being fired. Submitting a resignation is just a formality that has been done in every administration. He was fired.

3. But Sessions said he would not do that.

4. No, he said he would not quit.

And he didn't. No cabinet official can defy a President and refuse to leave. They all serve at the pleasure of the President. So when asked to resign he did.

2. They secretly desire to be led by a strongman like Trump.

Right-wingers in general feel the same way. They love them some authoritarianism.

5. "at your request, I am submitting my resignation" fired. That should be obvious?
