President Trump said he didn't fire special counsel Robert Mueller because firings "didn't work out too well" for former President Richard Nixon.
Trump compared himself with the only president in the nation's history to resign in a portion of his interview with ABC News' George Stephanopoulos aired Sunday.
"I wasn't gonna fire [Mueller], you know why? Because I watched Richard Nixon go around firing everybody, and that didn't work out too well," Trump said in the interview.
