Any theory—mine included—of why the Rosenstein story was leaked has to grapple with this Politico report of how the very GOP members who’ve been gunning for Rosenstein’s departure are now gunshy, and don’t want to strike before the midterms.https://twitter.com/kyledcheney/status/1043558782243143681 …

Trump is a big negative in most places, as is being perceived as not standing up to Trump. Mueller is trusted. And there are national polls showing that if Mueller shows collusion that Repubs lose 10-20% of their base. That, plus turnout collapse, would def cost them the Senate.

Note that Ingraham deleted her tweet calling for Mueller to be firedhttps://www.politico.com/story/2018/09/22/rosenstein-firing-trump-836453 …

Maybe Rosenstein has permitted some kind of dead man's switch on sealed indictments.

If Mueller has American coconspirator indictments ready to go right after midterms, what, realistically, does replacing Rosenstein or Sessions accomplish? Is Mueller going to be sending a new scope expansion memos to his overseer?

Do you mean Rosenstein is trying to accomplish or avoid a specific political effect on the election, or is simply trying to avoid *any* effect?

Trump may still want to strike immediately, he doesn't care about anything but himself. So my guess would be the WH leaked it and he was hoping it would get him what he wants.

Seems (to me anyhow) Lisa Page is teaming up with McCabe to push the "Rosenstein wanted to secretly record Trump" narrative
https://twitter.com/woodruffbets/status/1043690678474158081?s=19 …
Is this about shielding McCabe from prosecution or..?
Also didn't outlets say yesterday her detailed memos didn't reflect this?

It sounds like the lame duck phase will be very tumultuous. Nobody will have any reason to hold back.
