Proof that Ambassadors should have been fired

[jwoodie]

By their testimony in the impeachment inquiry, these former Ambassadors have proven that they are political partisans who had no respect for their Constitutional roles to serve at the pleasure of the President and to carry out his foreign policy. Fortunately, they have exposed themselves as denizens of the Deep State who deserved to be fired. Thank you!

Its a simple partisan shit show, making the ambassador look like a martyr and Trump a bully.
Trump needs to be aware how to play the game instead of constantly giving democrats clubs to beat him over the head with.
He could have removed Yovanovich gracefully and honorably, instead of the smear campaign and a major campaign issue.
Trump must have a learning disability, no one should take this fucking long to learn a job.

They would not go along with Trump's abuse of power and incredibly corrupt behavior, and that makes them deserving to be fired, eh?

Interesting.

What they have all had to explain over and over and that the republicans refused to acknowledge is that the president was conducting his own Ukraine policy that was in direct conflict with the official policy. While the president has the power to set foreign policy and hire and fire ambassadors at will it has to be done in a procedural way through the state department. If all this is proper why were proper channels not used? It would have protected the president from impeachment.

Your profanity does absolutely nothing to make the spurious case that the president has unaccountable unilateral authority to conduct shadow foreign policy for the express purpose of advancing his own personal interests. The state department insulates the president from ever seeming to be corrupt in his foreign policy. Why did he not use proper procedure to accomplish something that he is desperately trying to portray as proper? There is only one answer, you're just not allowed to say it.

Seems to me that after serving with many past administrations with distinction it all goes to hell under the present one. But that is way over your head.

How to become an ambassador @ US Ambassadors | Jobs and Degree Requirements for US Diplomats

We find ourselves with a Department of State riddled with career diplomats who have no loyalty but to their own futures. Unlike someone the president personally appoints, their viewpoint of what's good for the country is based on their own political and world viewpoint.

An ambassador should be the personal representative to a foreign nation, espousing the president's views and policies first and foremost.

Someone like this doesn't get "fired", they just get sent back to another State Department post equivalent to their rank.

Ambassadors serve the country, not for the personal benefit of government officials.
Part of the ambassador job is to fight corruption, not aid it.

Nonsense. Telling the truth is commendable and exceptionally rare from this administration.

Their testimony in the impeachment inquiry proves that they honor legal congressional subpoenas to testify. That's what great American patriots do. These patriots should be honored - not vilified.

That these career professionals with decades of service to this nation put country over "Orange Criminal" is proof that they should be fired?

No, ambassadors are for the State. The US.

Trump doesn't adhere to the Constitution or the norms of our democracy. Policy by Trump.

1. Obama fired ALL ambassadors in 2008, so stop whining
2. Yonakovich was kept on by State and given a cushy professor job in Georgetown recruiting young candidates, she's happy there
3. The President, and only the President sets foreign policy, period. He listens to advisors, but makes the decision. The career professionals carry it out.
4. You have a "crime" committed by Trump? because none of the first 3 witnesses could name one.
