As his final act, John Sununu, the man hired by George Bush to be his political hatchet man, took a swipe at the boss insinuating that he was fired for doing what he was hired to do. Indeed, in a May 1990 cover story called "Big Bad John Sununu," Time magazine said: "Sununu has emerged as Bush's most inspired choice for any senior post. The fact is that it has been clear from day one of this campaign season that Donald Trump will not stop attacking Hillary Clinton and her husband until they are out of office.

And so, finally, Bush invited Sununu to resign.
