5. What is it about people in Trump's orbit?

Why in the world would anyone continue to work with Trump when he treats people so rudely? Sessions is either entirely spineless or Trump has some kind of control over him. I can't understand it.

Likewise, recent reports that Trump screamed at his chief of staff, General Kelly, are difficult to understand. Kelly told people afterwards that he's never been spoken to in such a manner in his life. Why didn't he quit on the spot?

Sessions apparently offered Trump his resignation but Trump later rejected it. If I were in that position, I'd reject his rejection. As the OP wrote, I'd tell him to fuck off. What could he do? Arrest me? Of course, I'd never work for him in the first place.

It's just incomprehensible to me that anyone would work with such an abusive, ignorant, despicable person.
