That said, you should tell them then and there that you can't do that BECAUSE it is illegal (that's where the folks around Trump did bad), but just because you're not an elected official, doesn't mean that you should follow the illegal commands of an elected official or resign.
Apparently a lot of people explained to Trump that his actions were illegal, and they explained REPEATEDLY why Sessions had to recuse himself, and Trump was not buying it.
Lewandoski and McGahn apparently refused to follow illegal orders, which Trump never rescinded.
We are in this pickle now 1) because we have a president who ignores the law and what to replace truth-tellers and loyalists to the Constitution with people who will do his bidding. And 2) his base continues to support that behavior.
