Trump leaves door open to firing Rosenstein
Source: The Hill
President Trump is declining to comment on a new report that Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein sought to invoke the 25th Amendment to remove him from the White House.
I dont want to comment on it until I get all the facts, Trump said in an interview on Geraldo in Cleveland on WTAM radio in Cleveland that is set to air on Monday, according to The New York Times.
But the president left the door open to firing Rosenstein, saying a decision is "being looked at."
I havent gotten all the facts, but certainly its being looked at in terms of what took place," Trump added. "If anything took place and Ill make a determination sometime later, but I dont have the facts.
His comments came just days after The New York Times reported that Rosenstein proposed surreptitiously recording conversations with Trump and discussed the possibility of administration officials invoking the 25th Amendment to remove him from office. The report said that the proposals from Rosenstein were brought up after Trump fired former FBI director James Come in the spring of 2017.

He went after Colin Koepernick for kneeling, after Colin worked hard to be the best QB he could be. He has only supported TRAITORS like Manafort, Cohen, Stone, and others. Now he is busy praising Kavanaugh, a sexual predator just like himself. The gop committee members should all be ashamed of themselves. The evidence is glaring, yet they continue to push the nomination. The guy is a SLEAZEBAG.

This was always the case. Nothing has changed.
Wait till facts are in. Stop the stupid speculation. That isn't news.
