Your attempts to rewrite history are elementary at best. Weeks and even months worth of forced "deliberation" where dems prove how large their bladders are refreshing your memory at all?
It's really rather a pointless discussion at this point though. Guy who should have been fired in 2016 has been fired. Good. Move on and stop crying.
He shouldn't have been fired because he was one of the few competent conservatives working for Trump. Remember, it's not obstruction when you don't even have a shortlist of appointees. Unfortunately, Trump is to blame because his administration didn't even know that certain positions EXISTED (i.e. undersecretaries for certain departments). It boils down to a failure of not knowing how government works.

wasnt this at least partially intentional? understaffing departments is a more effective way of gutting them than anything he could do via the usual chain of command or against the will of the career bureaucrats populating them.
Um, I don't think it was intentional in terms of trying to gut departments. It was basically negligent because they figured government was easier than business. Trump and his team didn't even know what a lot of the departments DO. I think it's documented that the administration was surprised to find out that the Commerce department is only loosely related to actual commerce
