It's just the theme of The Apprentice. That's what Trump knows. It's all about ratings and nothing gets the audience riled up like a good firing.
I assume everyone there knows it by now. They are only there so Trump can blame them for some of his (many) mistakes and fire them. Everybody will eventually be the scapegoat when a scapegoat is needed.
This is why I always hated The Apprentice. I don't like shows about stupid people and the idiotic things they do. As an engineer who never wanted to go into management, I really hate bosses who are clueless. The Apprentice was both.
You and I know he was just frustrated because everybody tells him he can't fire Sessions, so he had to fire somebody.
