Nope, you are confusing Dumps reality TV show with actual reality. I guess it does get a little confusing as his whole presidency seems to be a parody. People who voted for him truly are some of the stupidest human beings to ever exist.

I've heard it as a criticism of Peter Thiel and others, and, as a manager edging towards director, I get asked about it in interviews too

They don't ask you about the edging direction? I'm assuming you don't eventually cum on the director. So down your pants or do you want until you get home?

In real life firing means you made the wrong pick and is not looked upon as a good thing unless you are a sociopath. I suppose if you came into a company to clean house some would view it as correct but they are probably shareholders who have perverse incentives.

Long story short, Americans don't generally like bosses and don't approve of firings unless it is obvious the choice was correct, for instance firing someone who is toxic.

Having had to fire someone as a director myself I would think it strange to be brought up in an interview and probably a red flag.

Personally, I agree with you. However last several organizations I've been in have had a "we trial you to see if you're an A-player, and if not we next you" attitude

I am sorry that you have to deal with people like that. It sounds like their organizations are dysfunctional.
