So a nonpartisan ambassador that is well respected and has dedicated her life to protecting American interests is now being told by Trump to “take her out” like some enemy combatant. It’s despicable that this guy has any power. He puts himself above America and below morality all the time. Only one word describes Trump, pig.
A recording reviewed by ABC News appears to capture President Donald Trump telling associates he wanted the then-U.S. ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch fired while speaking at a small gathering that included Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman -- two former business associates of Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani who have since been indicted in New York.
The recording appears to contradict statements by Trump and support the narrative that has been offered by Parnas during broadcast interviews in recent days. Sources familiar with the recording said the recording was made during an intimate April 30, 2018, dinner at the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C.
The same “non-partisan” ambassador who was an avowed member of the resist movement to the point that she refused to change the portrait of the President from Obama to Trump?
BTW all ambassadors serve at the pleasure of the President. He can recall them for any reason, or no reason. Why is that so hard to understand?

"TRUMP: “This ambassador that everybody says is so wonderful, she wouldn’t hang my picture in the embassy. OK? She’s in charge of the embassy. She wouldn’t hang it. It took like a year and a half or two years for her to get the picture up.” — Fox News interview Friday.
THE FACTS: She’s not the reason why Trump’s photo wasn’t displayed in the U.S. Embassy in Ukraine after his inauguration. Trump’s official portrait for display in federal facilities was not released by the White House until October 2017. Portraits for U.S. embassies came months after that."
She serves at the pleasure of the President. He can fire anyone for any reason.
Carry on
This.

All employees of the Executive Branch and any subordinate agency/department therein serve at the pleasure and whim of the President.
If Trump had the Ukraine ambassador fired because he didn't like her shoes, it is perfectly legal and acceptable. Same as any President and any Executive branch employee...ever.

Of course he can. But you know that is not just what he did. He tried to destroy her career. He could’ve just recalled her back to DC and that would’ve been the end of it. But instead he had to drag her through the mud for no reason except being a vindictive SOB. Trump will be the one to be “taken out” soon enough.
Who uses language like that? And why was she being stalked?
