Of course the President can fire the people who disagree with him. In fact he should do that if the people are preventing the implementation of the President's lawful policies. The Constitution is pretty darn clear on this point:

Article 2. Section 1: The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America.

Of course it is also possible for a President to make poor decisions, but the trend towards criminalizing policy differences is not a healthy one. Elections are the solution to poor executive decisions, which is NOT the same thing as unlawful actions.

I believe the unwritten assumption was that the president was firing people who disagreed with him when he made unlawful policies.
