73. The state AG's work at the will of the president

That is not to say that there are norms set up. But ever since Clinton took office the repigs have been fucking with them.

It used to be a norm that when a new president came in, the Ags would tender their resignation. The Ags, when Clinton came in, had been there since Reagan and refused. Forcing Clinton to fire them. Then Bush the lesser was elected I forgot off the top of my head if he fired them, but he had a different scandal- He fired at least 8 or 9 midterm. Most of those he fired refused to look into the bogus claims of voter fraud. Obama came in and fired them.

But always, whether they quit or were fired they were not let go immediately. They were replaced in stages; depending on what the case load was and if replacements were ready to take over. I think it took Obama 2 years to replace all the AGs.

Now we have trump. He asked that they tender their resignation. Bharara refused, forcing trump to fire him. Then we found out what Bharara was investigating Russian real estate fraud in NYC and money laundering.

Like I said previously, even though AGs were officially fired under other presidents, they were not out the door until replacements could be found and confirmed. trump still has not named any replacements for confirmation. So now we have over 40 acting AGs.
