tRump is forcing ambassadors to quit by inauguration day

WASHINGTON — President-elect Donald J. Trump’s transition staff has issued a blanket edict requiring politically appointed ambassadors to leave their overseas posts by Inauguration Day, according to several American diplomats familiar with the plan, breaking with decades of precedent by declining to provide even the briefest of grace periods...

In the past, administrations of both parties have often granted extensions on a case-by-case basis to allow a handful of ambassadors, particularly those with school-age children, to remain in place for weeks or months.

Is it your claim that Trump's administration is not granted extensions?

Obama didn't allow grace periods, he canned them on the 20th, just like Trump is doing, but Trump is bad for doing the same thing as Obama. Cowardly hack.

You're a liar. They can stay until the end of the school year, many have done thus on the past.

No wonder you thread ban me, you have to hear the truth and wouldn't be able to peddle your lies so openly.

Liar. Your reading comprehension sucks. You disgust me.

"With two weeks until Inauguration Day, President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team has issued an unusual order in the history of US foreign service:a blanket mandate that all politically appointed US ambassadors step down by Jan. 20, with no exceptions, as several US diplomats told The New York Times and Politico.

While being told to pack their bags at the end of an administration is par for the course, the lack of a grace period, or case-by-case exceptions, could prove worrisome, diplomacy experts say, if it left top US embassies without ambassadors for months.

“It is clearly understood among American ambassadors that when there's a change in the administration, they do not automatically stay on as ambassadors,” Alan Henrikson, a retired professor and former chair of the diplomatic studies program at Tufts University’s Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, tells The Christian Science Monitor. “But the abruptness of insisting that by Inauguration Day they leave their posts, especially in the present context when there's a result of the American election – there's widespread anxiety about dramatic changes in the American foreign policies and relationships. It just simply increases the concerns abroad.”

Says nothing about them not being able to stay for their kids schooling. And your link does not prove Obama let them stay on after the 20th.

Go find something that proves Obama let them stay on as Ambassador after the 20th and you have a point.

Guess you can't post without name calling and cursing.

I tried to have a name call free discussion with you and you don't seem capable of doing that which you accuse me of.

Just on this thread you called me a liar and a cowardly hack, so I repeat: GFY.

Guess you can't make a post without insulting me. I'm trying. You've called me names since I first joined and so I started giving it back. But now, I'm going to take the high road with you (as much as possible) and show you that you're dead wrong about me.

I even cited posts of mine in the beginning and you still won't admit you are lying about me not being able to post without name calling and accusations. I proved it in the warzone. That is okay, you don't control my actions.
