        Maybe the WH leaked the story to test the waters to see what the reaction would be?

        Marcy -- Do you know why everyone at Fox News is panicking about Trump firing Rosenstein? I thought that's what they wanted?

        Replying to @JonShiffman @emptywheel

        I might *guess* they want to use the idea of protecting Trump as a rallying point for R voters, and firing him might instead galvanize D voters. In other words, they still believe they can keep the house (and certainly the Senate) and maintain status quo before making a move

        As if they didn’t know Rosenstein would make Trump fire him. That’s been reported previously. They’re all big dummies at the WH, just conspiring to obstruct Justice away...

        I think instead we are going to have to learn which reporters to stop trusting. Which is very difficult, but I think too many of them have no intention of doing otherwise.

        Trump needs Rosenstien to resign so he can fill his job, legally. Also, he hates firing people. Doesn't have the stomach for it. Who does?
