As usual, there was no advance thinking. So Trump will pay the price.

Ousted Veterans Secretary Shulkin: There was 'no reason for me to resign'

Former Veterans Affairs Secretary David Shulkin maintained Sunday that he was fired and did not resign from his post, despite conflicting claims from the White House.

“There would be no reason for me to resign. I made a commitment, I took an oath, and I was here to fight for our veterans," Shulkin said on Sunday’s “Meet The Press.”

The terms of Shulkin’s departure could have an impact on President Donald Trump’s ability to pick a replacement, as some legal experts believe federal law could limit the president's ability to fill the position if he did not resign. Trump announced on Twitter Wednesday his White House physician, Adm. Ronny L. Jackson, would be appointed to the role.
