“Is he trying a last-minute in-your-face snub of the president—”You want me gone?! Fire me!” How does Trump and team handle this? Say, “Get back to work”? Seems like political chicken.”
Don’t fire him, although a rape allegation against him might get him to consider resigning.
IIRC Roger Stone had said that the DoJ slipped in a change of succession such that swamp creatures would fill the RR role if he left, at least three deep. (However, it also seemed like a Trump friendly guy had been introduced somewhere into the DoJ a few months ago, as if being positioned for a larger role.)
I wonder if this has been changed and who will/would slip into his position on an acting basis.
