It's hard to say whether this is brazen or stupid or both, but it certainly doesn't lend credibility to his eventual decisions. At the very least it's extremely unsophisticated for a former director of the FBI

Very naive.

It's a trap. Mueller is begging to be fired.

I presume Ryan has told Swamp Central that he won't declare for impeachment, "with a heavy heart", unless the swamp creatures can provoke Trump into an act like firing Mueller.

I think he should fire him anyway, be he should then be prepared to sent a Marine Expeditionary Unit to arrest Congress.

As they say back home, "sh*t's gonna get real".

Republicans would instantly lose Congress if they pushed impeachment.

“The Saturday Night Massacre refers to U.S. President Richard Nixon’s orders to fire independent special prosecutor Archibald Cox, which led to the resignations of Attorney General Elliot Richardson and Deputy Attorney General William Ruckelshaus on October 20, 1973, during the Watergate scandal.[1][2]”

That was the end for Nixon and today’s Progressives have plans of repeating. The are thinking of using John McCain in the role of Barry Goldwater (a thought that sickens me, a fan of Goldwater not McCain).
The difference is that Nixon actually did something very wrong but not necessarily worthy of impeachment.
