| Hillary Clinton: Trump will 'wholesale fire people' after midterm election |
| 2018-09-19 |
| [NBC] Clinton said an anonymous New York Times op-ed was "horrifying" and raised the likelihood that Trump might try a purge of staff he suspects of working against him. Hillary Clinton predicted Tuesday that President Donald Trump will "wholesale fire people" in the White House and become increasingly unaccountable, if Democrats don't check his power by winning a majority of seats in the House or Senate in the November midterm elections. Clinton made the remarks during the former secretary of state's appearance on MSNBC's "The Rachel Maddow Show." "What I worry about, Rachel, is that after this election this president is going to wholesale fire people," Clinton said. " ... And if we [Democrats] don’t have one or both houses of Congress in place he will be even more uncontrollable and unaccountable. He will fire people in the White House, he will fire people in this administration who he thinks are crossing him, questioning him, undermining him." Clinton, who ran the State Department during part of the Obama administration, said an anonymous opinion piece in The New York Times was "horrifying" and raised the likelihood that Trump might try a purge of staff he suspects of working against him. |

| #17 Maybe Hillary's one good idea.--Fire a bunch of people. Here's another one Hillary, prosecute a bunch on people. Why not start before the midterms? Would most likely bring out (and maybe increase) DJT's base. |

| #10 Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton Donald Trump refuses to be subject to the law. The legitimacy of our elections is in doubt. The president is waging war on the truth. The administration is undermining the national unity that makes democracy possible. And then there's the breathtaking corruption. 11:08 AM · Sep 18, 2018 Recent outpouring of narcissistic projection on Twitter.. |

| #6 As a person who believes the civil service should be %95 smaller, I must insist that wholesale firing is a prefered result. |
