Trump May Fire Rod Rosenstein

President Trump “is considering firing Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein… a move that has gained urgency following the raid of the office of the President’s personal lawyer,” CNN reports.

“Such an action could potentially further Trump’s goal of trying to put greater limits on special counsel Robert Mueller.”

“This is one of several options — including going so far as to fire Attorney General Jeff Sessions — Trump is weighing in the aftermath of the FBI’s decision Monday to raid the office of Michael Cohen, the President’s personal lawyer and longtime confidant. Officials say if Trump acts, Rosenstein is his most likely target, but it’s unclear whether even such a dramatic firing like this would be enough to satisfy the President.”
