Actually what you say illustrates that there are a large number of possibilities. Possibly Don Jr.

“I viewed Rosenstein as a white hat for awhile...”

If memory is correct, Rosenweasel wrote POTUS’ Comey-your-fired letter. Maybe that is why one could see him as a white hat in the beginning. But as things have unfolded .... That letter is either a stroke of genius by or luck for Trump. Rosenweasel can’t support prevaricator Comey if it comes to a criminal prosecution. Rosenweasel also sold-out his fellow conspirators by doing this, because Comey was part of the inner circle. If he refused to write the letter, he would have had to resigned or be dismissed. If he resigned, he would be out of the “action” and perhaps be subject to some type of “accident” that seems to happen to certain DC types when needed.

Rosenstein thought Democrats would support Comey’s firing. He calculated wrong. Spectacularly.

I'm telling ya, Rosenstein is acting for Team Trump. Sessions was spied on that's why he recused himself. You don't be a bad guy and Trump telling you, in your fact on AF1, that you have nothing to worry about and he's still has his job. Neither do you get the hero send off like this:

Sessions was useless. No, he was worse than useless. He was complicit.

Rosenstein is a weasel.
He was a weasel then.
He’s a weasel today.
He will be a weasel until the day he dies.
And that day can’t come soon enough to suit me.

Now go play with your Qballs. Adults are talking.

Yep. Spent the entire weekend fishing in beautiful spring weather. Caught a bunch of monster largemouth. One was over 5 pounds. Over 30 fish from Friday afternoon till Sunday.

Nobody around here gives much of a **** what Governor Creosote has to say.

APPARENTLY THERE WAS COLLUSION IN THE RUSSIA SITUATION. THE COLLUSION WAS BETWEEN THE FBI AND THE DEMOCRATS TO OVERTURN THE 2016 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. THAT IS CALLED A COUP ATTEMPT AND COUP ATTEMPTS ARE SEDITION. SEDITIONISTS BELONG IN PRISON.

“Good to hear fellow patriot!”

Just doing what we can with what we got. Now we push our timid Board members into opening the range. Lots of members are pissed about that. Might be some new faces on the Board come January.

I plan on being one of them.

Correctamundo! Stone it is, I believe, in the redacted passages.

Yes, he did. And that was a big part of what fooled me. I think Rosenstein was in a corner there. Plus, as you allude, calculated that firing Comey would give him cover - Trump would see Rosenstein opposing Comey, and might then view Rosenstein as an ally or at least not an opponent.

Hi Lodi - Yours is another good angle to consider. Their hatred of course was grounded in what he said in getting HRC off the hook for her criminal acts. Don’t bet for a minute that he wrote his own speech - obozo and company told him what to say. Comey parsed his words; he had no choice. Their sycophants on the outside were angry - they wanted total exoneration of their criminal candidate. In the end, the angry demonkraps still found Comey useful to push Muleface to consider indicting POTUS on obstruction of justice - because POTUS fired Comey!
