PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — As his frustration with the investigation into his campaign and business expands into threatening new fronts, President Donald Trump refused to say Wednesday whether he plans to fire special counsel Robert Mueller and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.

"As far as the two gentlemen you told me about, they've been saying I'm going to get rid of them for the last three months," Trump said during a joint press conference with the prime minister of Japan. "Four months. Five months. And they're still here. So we want to get the investigation over with, done with, put it behind us."

He'll make the announcement by Twitter anyway, not through any other established media.

IMHO if he wanted them gone he would have fired them a long time ago.

Trump  would be foolish to fire Mueller because it would make all but the most avid Trump supporters suspect he is guilty of something.
