Trump attorney won't rule out firing Mueller

By Victoria Guida

One of President Donald Trump’s attorneys on Sunday wouldn't rule out the possibility the president would fire the special counsel appointed to look into his campaign’s potential ties to Russia.

Robert Mueller was appointed by the Justice Department last month to investigate Russia's interference in the 2016 presidential election. And on Sunday, ABC's George Stephanopoulos asked Trump attorney Jay Sekulow whether the president would pledge not to interfere or order the attorney general to fire Mueller.

At this point, that would be another unforced error.   Justified or not, it just plays into the narrative that Trump has something to hide.

If there's nothing to hide don't behave otherwise.
If all I want is a warm feeling, I should just wet my pants.

I hear you, but I keep thinking about how Bill Clinton handled his very real scandals.  Just ignored them and moved on.  Maybe that's what Trump should do.  He's going to get hysterical hyperbole either way.

Trump is incapable of ignoring things.  His big mouth and his tweets are going to be his undoing.

That would be about as smart as firing Comey was.
