confirms my suspicion that Drumpf wields little actual power within the Whitehouse and that his football likely contains nothing more than those paddle board toys just to distract him in a real emergency.
Trump attempted to fire Mueller June 2017 but blocked by McGahn
The usual desperate liberals' Fake News, supported by zero facts, zero references, zero named sources.
You people still haven't realized that it's lies like this disguised as "news", that have resulted in the media's losing any influence they once had over the nation's affairs, have you?
So, is Fox news desperate also, didn't you see the Sean Hannity tape.

I have no clue and I don’t care either.
Neither do you and neither should you because at end of the day, he didn’t fire Muller.
Just because my client walked into the bank with a gun hidden in his bag, and a note to give me all your money, doesn't make him guilty of attempted robbery. The facts are simple. My client didn't rob the bank so the evidence and intent is not relevant.
Is that what you mean?
Well I for one think you are not correct. Intent does matter and attempts to exercise power do matter.
This is an attempt that has just been confirmed to America by both left and right sources from within the WH. Yes we may have suspected it.
This is news.
Further, Trump just made it even bigger news by his denial if sources his own propaganda tool trusts.

There is a new twist to this story.
The man who wrote the regulations that must be followed regarding a special prosecutor has has chimed in:
"“The regulations say that if he is going to interfere with a special counsel, it must be reported to Congress,” Katyal wrote. “Which means Thursday’s report reveals cause for optimism about the regulations. Because Trump couldn’t subtly undermine Mueller or order his underlings to do that without it being reported to Congress, he had to resort to the bazooka. And while he does have the raw legal power to use the bazooka, it is atrocious judgment.”
Katyal noted Trump and his administration’s numerous denials that the president has considered firing special counsel Mueller. “Someone’s pants (actually many pants) are on fire,” he wrote."
I don't recall McGahn reporting to Congress back in June 2017 that Trump attempted to interfere with the SP.
Got-a-love that Hannity thought process, if he did fire Mueller it wouldn't be obstruction. He would have been the single voice clearing Nixon after the Saturday night massacre.
After receiving the president’s order to fire Mr. Mueller, the White House counsel, Donald F. McGahn II, refused to ask the Justice Department to dismiss the special counsel, saying he would quit instead,
Scandalous!
I'm so following this like it's the biggest news on the playground.
In the digital age, Mueller's 10 months of investigation along with Comey's year is equivalent to over 5 years of investigation in Nixon's time. It's looking like collusion was fake news but they're still going for obstruction.
I'm not sure how you obstruct something that didn't happen but maybe Mueller can explain
Care to explain your math there?
