He can ask for Rosenstein's resignation. He can also ask for declassification of the FISA docs. He can demand Rosenstein to appear before congress. But none of that is going to happen. Rosenstein seems untouchable and as the article correctly states, Trump has said he has no plans to fire him.
What on earth will it take to get rid of this guy? If there's anyone on the planet who deserves to be removed from his position its Rod Rosenstein.

A successful election next month.

I don’t know about that. Anyone who can stick around like he has and get away with defying the congress and undermining the president must be holding some really good cards to survive in his job as long as he has.
He does have some good cards.
Trump could never replace Sessions or RR with the circus congress as it stands.
The special council Muledeer is just looking for a reason to call obstruction.
Border problems,elections, Mob violence.
Trump needs a new congress to back him up.
“House Freedom Caucus members previously said Rosenstein should either testify before Congress or resign from his post. “
Resign? Along with Jeff Sessions, RR is one of hundreds involved in this massive conspiracy of high treason. They’re ALL IN.
Trump is going to have to put his presidency(& by extension the fate of the country) on the line and clean house. Damn the impeachment torpedoes and gut the DOJ top to bottom-stem to stern. Gut our corrupt stasi state top to bottom-stem to stern. IOW, DRAIN THE SWAMP

Wait! I thought Jeff Sessions was the one person who deserved this treatment more than anyone else.
.
Well, what do I know?
“Trump needs a new congress to back him up.”
He’s not going to get that...He’s going to have to call their bluff and start draining the swamp. If they go for impeachment, it will be go time.
You got a few of them right. I suspect there are some other face cards he’s holding.
Consider how much this guy has gotten away and Trump recently saying how much likes Rosenweasel. He said he has a “very good relationship” with Rod and that “I’ve gotten to know him and I get along very well with him”. This about a guy who plotted a coup against him and refuses to cooperate with the United States Congress.
There’s a lot more going on here than meets the eye.
He’s also says he gets along great with Xi Jinping and Kim Jong un.
I smell troll.
One big difference: Xi Jinping didn’t plot a coup against Trump like Rod did.
Give the troll crap a rest.
Don’t count on it:
Meet the new Congress, same as the old Congress.
Hmmm, I was told over and over again that the DOJ under Sessions was out to lunch, missing in action, hiding in the Keebler tree, or some such.
Seems like there’s something going on there after all, eh? #SilentExecutioner
Yeah, it’s called the Mueller investigation.
Oh, are you saying that Mueller is investigating the surveillance of Trump campaign aides?
So you’re saying Mueller is a white hat?
resign Rosenstein...and take Mueller and his dem operatives with you.
But wait! Some here, like jjotto, think that Mueller is investigating the surveillance of Trump campaign aides. That means Mueller is supporting Trump, right, and is investigating the whole FISA/dossier deception?
Someone is investigating the surveillance of Trump campaign aides, which can only mean investigating the fake FISA applications (see post #13), and jjotto insists it’s Mueller and not Sessions (see post #14).
So if jjotto is correct, Rosenstein and Mueller are good guys and must stay!
Uh, no. The FIB did surveillance of Trump, and Mueller is supposed to be finding charges on an ongoing investigation. FIB legal eagle Baker is of course up to his neck in bad stuff.
If there were some secret investigation, DOJ would not confirm it by calling the secret investigation ‘ongoing’.
Who said anything about a “secret” investigation? You’re making that up. The FBI lawyers confirmed it as an ongoing investigation. I will post the excerpt of the article again (emphasis mine):
...the FBI general counsel present for the interview would not allow Baker to answer a series of questions about topics like surveillance of Trump campaign aides because it is tied to ongoing investigations.
So, there is an ongoing investigation into the “surveillance of Trump campaign aides”.
My question is, who is doing this “ongoing” investigation? You said it was Mueller.
Descriptions of testimony are hearsay, as it was a closed meeting. Parsing phrases imagined by a reporter is pointless.
The only confirmed investigation into this whole area is Mueller’s.
