She’s just trying to sound tough. Like all the Senate Republicans. There’s not a true Trump supporter among them. Just part-timers.

However, if Trump fires Rosenstein, and he should, then he can interview (with Sessions) potential replacements from within the ranks of the DOJ.

When he finds one he likes, he can make an interim appointment and he’ll be vested with all the power of the position.

He’ll be “the acting” Deputy Attorney General.

And Ms Collins won’t get a vote on that.

I don't believe there is an honest man or woman in the fbi, certainly not sessions. He stabbed Trump in the back the second he was sworn in. He had an obligation and a duty to be up front with Trump. The only reason he could have not to be is he was plotting to get Trump all along.

If it is someone else in a position at the DOJ that already had to be confirmed by the Senate to that position, would they have to be confirmed again or could they just be moved to that position? It is not a cabinet level position like the top spot.

Trump doesn’t need a deputy AG. If he fires Rosenstein and Mueller, that leaves recused Sessions in place who can’t get involved.

So, it’s over except for a possible impeachment that is not certain in this house. They know the dirty tricks that have been played on Trump.

That would make the midterms crucial.
