Trump tried firing Mueller!
 

and the plot thickens!!

President Donald Trump called for special counsel Robert Mueller's firing last June, The New York Times reported Thursday evening, citing four people told of the matter.

But the President never went through with the order, according to the Times report, because White House counsel Don McGahn threatened to quit instead of carrying out the order.
"We decline to comment out of respect for the Office of the Special Counsel and its process," White House lawyer Ty Cobb told CNN.
Mueller is currently investigating any possible ties between the Trump campaign and Russia during the 2016 election.
Trump has repeatedly denied any collusion.

thought this was common knowledge...i remember it already being in the news last year

CNN is usually about a year behind in the real news. They on top of the fake though. :1orglaugh

Half of those feds should be throw in prison for plotting a coup against President-elect Trump.

Trump is God!!!!!!!

No this is new. Its previously known that Trump attempted to fire Andrew McCabe who is the FBI deputy director but the FBI director Chris Wray told him he'd resign if forced to fire him.. Trump and Sessions are right now actively trying to pressure Wray to retire but I think its clear Wray is stating till Trump goes down..


This Mueller news is new and shows 100% Trump has a pattern of attempting to obstruct justice by trying to remove people who are investigating him..


BTW, anyone who is paying attention can see Trump has changed his story once again.. He no longer says he didn't do all this shit, he now says he "fought back" as his excuse as to why he fired Comey and attempted these other firings...

This is key signal that he knows its coming down on him soon. Hes trying to give a story for his base to cover his obstruction charges..

Trump = danger to this Demoracy and needs to be removed from office ASAP. Maybe we get lucky and some one shoots him while has on his trip...

He wanted to but that he actually tried is the news.

Dear morons, he doesn't have to try.. He could fire him at any given moment if he really wanted.. "Considered" is likely the real news....

You're really mentally ill.

And you're a crack baby, but who's complaining..

Truth

No.. Trump can't fire him.. Only Rosenstein can fire Mueller. All Trump can do is try to force Rosenstein to fire him or fire Rosenstein and replace him with someone willing to fire Mueller..

Learn basic govt please, we don't live in a dictatorship and Trump is not king..

He could.. He would just have to take out 1 or 2 people that really need taken out anyway first.. He's just going to let them be taken out though.. Rosenstein is going very soon.... Just as soon as that memo drops...

Truth again

We're finding out that Trump is too chicken shit to fire anyone so he gets his lawyer to do it in almost every instance, including this one. What a fucking weenie ass little bitch.

It wasn't the lawyer who was gonna do the firing, the .lawyer told Trump if he went through with firing Mueller, he would quit as WH counsel as it would obviously be undeniable obstruction of justice at that point.


BTW, can we all guess who leaked this? Can we say Bannon anyone...

The Donald has the full legal authority to order the Attorney General to fire Mueller and that is not obstruction of Justice for him to do so.
