| Nov 9, 2018 at 18:27 | comment | added | Martin Schröder | Jeff Session is 71 and has a net worth of 5-10M$ with a very nice pension. He will simply retire. | |
| Nov 9, 2018 at 17:52 | comment | added | hobbs | So in this hypothetical situation, misbehavior that harms the entire United States doesn't affect your future employment prospects, but getting fired for it does? To whatever extent that's true, it's awful. | |
| Nov 9, 2018 at 15:12 | comment | added | SJuan76 | Also, the idea that Sessions will forget the last year and a half of public harassment just because he was not fired and that it will significally change how he thinks about Trump seems rather strange. | |
| Nov 9, 2018 at 13:47 | comment | added | David Richerby | It's also pretty implausible that Trump cares even slightly about any potential benefit that Sessions might get from resigning rather than being fired. | |
| Nov 9, 2018 at 8:57 | comment | added | Zach Lipton | It's also unrealistic that Sessions would fill out a job application asking why he left his last job. If he does take private sector employment, it will involve people coming to him, and they'll know exactly who he is. He's not filling out any job applications. | |
| Nov 9, 2018 at 5:55 | comment | added | phoog | Everybody knows why Sessions is no longer attorney general. The idea that his future employment prospects would be different depending on whether he was technically dismissed or asked to resign is not realistic. | |
| Nov 9, 2018 at 4:47 | comment | added | Philipp Imhof | Thanks for that answer. However, I think that in such cases (so much publicity) an ex employee cannot spin his resignation. Concretely, Mr. Sessions might be a valuable employee for people who do not like the President and/or his politics, even if he had been fired. You can always say you have been fired for political reasons and that it was unjustified. | |
