Yes, but with all due respect, what of those options produces a situation that terminates the effort? If whatever Trump or Sekulow or any of these guys does just rattles the Press or writes this guy a letter or any of those other things what’s to prevent this from going on for 5 years?

The concern that I have is more spiritual and tactical....at what point does Trump say “I have the right to fire the special counsel if I wish. Instead I’m going to give him an amount of time to complete this investigation to show his results. Hit it or quit it. This shows that he is in charge. If he never does something that shows that he is in charge ....he will never be in charge. That’s the simplistic tactic I’m sort of floating here. Drop the hammer.

You and I are debating WHO should terminate the assignment. One way or the other, the assignment gets terminated, period.

Mueller, Congres and the press have an interest in making the assignment last the duration of Trump's presidency, and causing as much damage as they can, to Trump's administration, friends and family as they can, in the meantime.

Trump and the public have an interest in having an impartial investigation into the bogus allegation completed and reported quickly.

Firing Mueller creates a situation more like keeping the secret investigation alive, with the added bonus that "Trump would not fire Mueller if Trump was innocent."

So the way to keep the investigation short is to limit its scope. Smaller scope, less evidence, easier to report, and so on. We are more than two months into this, and just now finding out that Mueller is going on fishing expeditions. That is the fault of Rosenstein and Mueller, to hide that ball. Call them on it, and let's negotiate the scope of the assignment, IN PUBLIC.
