What is the consequence of not following these rules?
If the only consequence is a lawsuit he doesn't have to pay personally, then I don't think he cares.
I suppose if the firings are regarded as "official acts," the courts will support POTUS on this one.
Currently the consequence is they aren't accepting the termination of their enjoyment and aren't leaving.
If the consequence of not following the rules means it doesn't get enforced then he cares very much.
Why does trump care if someone he tried to fire refuses to accept that they're fired. He can still hire a replacement and pretend the person he "fired" doesn't exist, and as long as the rest of the bureaucracy plays along with him (which it always seems to) then trump faces no consequences for breaking the rules.
This happened time and time again last term where he broke norms and rules that had no codified repercussions. Dems would say "you can't do that, it's not allowed" but he'd do it anyways and succeed.
The checks placed on the POTUS need to have actual teeth and not just be a gentlemen's agreement
