Current FTC chair Andrew Ferguson endorses the firing of his fellow commissioners, because he knows that if he doesn't he's next.
Previously, Ferguson endorsed the overturning of Humphrey's Executor, where the Supreme Court ruled that FTC commissioners couldn't be fired without cause.

Spineless yes-men like him are the reason Trump has been able to do as much damage as he already has. What a pathetic little man Ferguson is.
If Trump wins, he will demand that the Federal Reserve lower interest rates or be fired, thus igniting inflation.
He’s a power hungry fascist with frontotemporal dementia.
I went ballistic when Trump issued EO some weeks back that, without naming the case, purported to overrule "Humphrey's Executor" a unanimous 1935 SCOTUS decision that said FDR couldn't just fire an FTC commissioner.
