I think that may put it only one place: impeachment.

Why? Some kinda law against the President firing Mueller?

Likely. The AG I believe has to fire a special investigator, for cause, only.

That wouldn't be the point anyhow. The point is the President, who claims he hasn't done anything and is totally vindicated, is terminating people who are investigating his administration ... and likely him. You couldn't not have a massive obstruction case at that point.

It's beyond telling that a week ago Mueller was being held up as a great impartial choice, and tonight all of Trumps surrogates are out in force, blasting him. (shaking head)

Trump is going to go down as the worst president we have ever had. Freaking amazing.

Don't forget about the precedent: Richard Nixon fired the special Watergate prosecutor, and that most definitely sealed his fate.

Nixon was a different time civic minded American's ruled the ballot box.
If Nixon had todays demographic he would have and could have stayed.
Today Civics is what ever the "ACTOR" in any given poltical situation says it is.
One idiot on the Hill says Trump can't do that! Trump says watch me. And nobody knows for sure what in the fuck he can and can't do.
Because they are all too busy listening to transgendered reporters who just don't know what in the fuck is going on. But that doesn't stop him from breaking laws to proove how much he hates Donald Trump.

cause he didn't like him.
Next...

There's nothing against the law, but impeachment is a political process--not a law enforcement process. Firing the special prosecutor is very problematic politically and could turn up the fire on Trump.

I'll agree that he shouldn't do that. The optics alone would be terrible. Not only that, but Mueller is more likely to dig up dirt on the DNC than Trump or his campaign.

That said, the media has tried to wag the dog too many times to be believed about anything. This "story" is most likely a huge farce.

It's time for an omnipotent ruler of the country.

If John Rambo ran as a Republican, the "Independents" would certainly elect him, because libruls yucky

I think this is all BS, esp. since it was the Rosenstein and Sessions that appointed him.

Rumor Trump is an ogre that eats children.

Trump killed Kenny!

Rosenstein questioned directly on it, and says he will only fire Mueller if there is cause. Additionally states Mueller will have independence.

A smart decision by Trump, if he still wants to remain President, is to let that stand. Likely one of his last decisions as President would be to reach in and try and get Rosenstein to fire Mueller.

More "Trump's gonna be removed from office" speculation, eh?

Will be the dumbest thing the Oligarchs and the Deep State can do, very irresponsible. But the latter is very desperate, just like the outdated Legacy Media.

That darn Legacy Media, with their facts, analysis, and investigative reporting.

Tim Aurora says

I think this is to just pressure Mueller. "Touch me and I will fire you and declare martial law"

Hahaha! I would love that. Trump would be out on his ass so fast it would make his hair flop over.

Trump faces swift backlash after allies push Mueller firing:

You know he is just itching to do something 'presidential' though. Come on tRump!

Now why are you shitbirds wishing Trump does something that you would be powerless to do anything about.
Say what you mean you idiots waste time in petty games. The voters fired Mueller the minute he was selected. 60% of us don't give a fuck about Chuck Schumer's feelings.

Let me correct that for you: "That darn Legacy Media, with their rumors, anonymous sources, wild speculation presented as fact, and dirt digging in the same tiny mound.

The continued optics of firing investigators lined up against you is beyond damaging. Trump, by moving to fire Mueller, would put himself in very likely impeachable territory.

Damn! It's exhausting to be right so very often!

Quigley says

Appealing to a supposed motive for denying a supposed intention as a ruse to claim victory is about the saddest thing ever.
The fact remains that Trump is denying he ever had an intention of firing Mueller, and neither he nor his spokesperson has ever said differently. A blabbermouth CEO was the "news source" who somehow claimed to know Trump's intentions, and 12 hours later the news cycle has Trump impeached for misconduct and obstruction.

Meanwhile: fake news!

With their Oligarch ownership and free trade/bomb 'em all ideology before America's interest.

Did they find any evidence of the #Russiahoax yet?

Rew says

There is massive evidence Russia tampered with our election. It's too bad, because it is politically advantageous, so many will chose to deny it. What happens when foreign support isn't given to the side you like? Regardless of how much we want to argue about how influential it was to have Russia pushing on the election, do you not agree that that alone is something to go find out the depths of, so we can prevent and safeguard against it?

Really? What is this vaunted clear and unambiguous evidence? Links and sources please.

Evidence is continued repetition that they have evidence, until the propaganda sinks into the collective mind and we all accept it as truth (without needing to ever see this evidence.)

Quigley says

Evidence is continued repetition that they have evidence ...

Russia has been engaging in propaganda wars and investing seed money in nationalist separatist groups throughout the West. Fact.
America has been a strong target of that especially during our election. Fact.

If people are too partisan to understand that now is NOT the time to willfully disbelieve something which is inconvenient to your world narrative, we will remain in peril. If short term partisan vindictiveness, and name calling, is what the driving force in the nation is, we are lost.

A deeply divided America steps back from the world.
We head toward another dark valley.

Just to be clear--what is the #Russiahoax? Russia was not involved?
