Rosenstein alone could appoint a special counsel. Trump outranks Rosenstein.

The AG can appoint a SC. The AG works for the POTUS. The POTUS can instruct his AG to appoint a SC.

Oh, except all that is only valid when a democrat is in the WH it seems. When a Republican is in the WH he is framed and railroaded by the establishment in DC.
