Did Donald Trump run away from the White House chaos, or has he chosen to celebrate his decision to fire his FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe? Once again, the president has escaped the rigorsĀ of heavy TV watching and pitting two people against one another in the Oval Office. There is only one thing Trump enjoys more than that blood sport.
‘President Trump is at his Virginia golf club this morning, marking his 101st day at a Trump golf property since taking office.’
It must be exhausting, firing his weekly quota of employees. He tweeted a pink slip to the Secretary of State and former CEO ExxonMobile, which is the largest company in the world and made $50 billion last year, Rex Tillerson.
The former secretary of state was in Africa cleaning up Trump’s “sh*th*le countries’ comment. Not only that, Tillerson was sick.

Then, Trump lied about the circumstances of Tillerson’s dismissal. The Undersecretary of State, Steve Goldstein, wrote a press release about the true circumstances and contradicted the president. Then, 45 fired him on the spot, too.
As the week ended, people felt as if they could take a deep breath – Trump was finished guillotiningĀ his administration. Then, in the dark of the night and hours before his resignation and retirement kicked into action, another one hit the dirt.
Trump commanded his Attorney General Jeff Sessions to fire the deputy director of the State Department, Andrew McCabe. The former deputy director is also a witness to Special Counselor Robert Mueller’sĀ investigation into Trump firing the then-FBI Director, James Comey.
