      TBF Trump immediately moved her onto some newfangled program that has even less congressional oversight while acting as a money pit, so it’s not really a firing…

      The first thing I wondered when I heard the news was if she knew, because this same thing has happened before. Despite “you’re fired” being the phrase that made Trump famous, outside of scripted television he’s a chickenshit coward who can’t fire underlings in person. He has to do it indirectly to avoid confrontations.
