“ As I said before , if he tried to do that, that would be the beginning of the end of his presidency because we are a rule-of-law nation,” Graham said. “He is following the evidence where it takes him, and I think it’s very important that he be allowed to do his job without interference, and there are many Republicans who share my view.”
Unfortunately orange conman toddler in chief thinks he's above the law.
This is warmed over spam. He's not gonna fire Mueller, but perhaps prodding him to step it up. The longer this goes on, the worse it will be for the Democrats in the midterms. The voters are tired of all the drama.
Well, many folks feel that Spam is best served cold!
(BTW-- would you like fries with that?)
Oh no, no no!
Spam is best served HOT, right out of the frying pan!
Well, at least that's how our family made it in Texas back in the 50's.
Served with pan fried patios or eggs, depending on the family budget that week. Yum!
That or the Mac & Cheese with cut up Hotdogs were my two favorite reacquiring meals as a young kid.

Don't ask me why your "Spam Served Cold" comment dredged up those old memories Krishna but I'll take it.
Thanks.
Actually I do agree. When I've had it it was much better tasting hot.
The reason I mentioned that it was "best served cold" was an attempt at humor, a reference to a popular Internet meme:
Revenge is best served cold.
Sayings like that catch on for a while and become very popular on many Internet sites. (I think in many cases people using them aren't actually even sure what they mean...).
Another one that was even more popular for a while but seems to be dying out is:
Hoisted himself by his own petard.
That depends mainly... upon whether or not he get more indictments and guilty pleas. (Based upon his results my gess is that he will).
Republican voters,yes. Democrat voters...not so much!
We are waiting for more and more indictments and with Gates no cooperating I am sure more are coming.
Oh my, on the rez Spam is the go to meat...In fact it's known as Ojibwe steak.
In fact one out of one Indian doctors recommend it for a long life...It's recommended by Dr. Sioux.
Add a little Sioux Z Wow sauce, mmm.
I eat SPAM cold out of the can, but if I am mixing it with another food....hot.
Damn pat, are you going to Sioux me because I left out the sauce?
On a serious note, my foodie friends swear by Sioux Z Wow. It's not cheap though.
I'll have to try it sometime pat.
I used to go fishing a lot in the Cut-foot Sioux rivers in MN.
Sioux is an version of the Ojibwe and French word meaning ''little snakes''...That's what the Ojibwe named the Sioux.
Shred one can of spam into a large bowl. Add one large bag of pre-shredded Mozzarella. Add one large bag of pre-shredded Chedder. Add one large dallop of mayo and mix throughly. Spread on halves of onion buns and broil until the cheese melts and topping starts to turn brown. Eat. Die of happiness.
LOL, good one Randy...
Learned it from my first wife. When I was hungry (and stoned) and she didn't feel like cooking she taught me to make this. It was also good when I wasn't high.
Wow - so, so very, very cutesy. Probably surprise you to know that he is YOUR President also and his last name is actually TRUMP.
But - grade school kids must be grade school kids, eh?
Well if the truth is cutesy so be it.
When you finally recognize the truth, it won't be cutesy.
When you recognize the truth it will bite you in the nose.
Oh Lindsey, if only you had a spine made out of something besides jello, then we could trust you to keep your word here.
Agreed, he has been so on again, off again as far a Trump goes that at this juncture it is hard to take him seriously.
Seems that the Democrats are just waiting (slack jawed as usual) for the President to fire Meuller just so they can have something else to whine and complain about.
He can't fire him directly. He will try to bully someone who can.
If he fires Mueller it more than just "something else to complain about"-- its called "Obstruction of Justice", a serious offence.
The Democrats WANT him to do it so they actually have something against him besides speculation, rumors and conspiracy theories. He won't fire Meuller just for the fact it will drive them out of their minds.
People have been talking about Trump firing Mueller since the guy was appointed. They do so without any actual threat of the firing taking place. And then they whine, moan, pull their hair out and gnash their teeth as if it had already happened. Tons of people in government in and the media have "warned" Trump not to fire him anyway. But it's like warning someone not to jump off a bridge. He wasn't planning on it. He's not planning it. He's made no move to do it that should make a rational person even worry about it.
Reality: the guy is still there doing his job.
But the hysteria continues unabated. Shit like this is why I think so much of what I see and hear these days is utter bullshit.
Your psychic abilities never cease to amaze! (Especially impressive is your ability to read Trump's mind!!!)
/sarc
However your claim is actually an "Alternative Fact-- not a True fact!!!
He made no move to do it? Nope.
Here's what Trump actually did in January:
Trump Ordered Mueller Fired, but Backed Off When White House Counsel Threatened to Quit
WASHINGTON — President Trump ordered the firing last June of Robert S. Mueller III, the special counsel overseeing the Russia investigation, according to four people told of the matter, but ultimately backed down after the White House counsel threatened to resign rather than carry out the directive.
The West Wing confrontation marks the first time Mr. Trump is known to have tried to fire the special counsel. Mr. Mueller learned about the episode in recent months as his investigators interviewed current and former senior White House officials in his inquiry into whether the president obstructed justice (Read it all)
Let me stop you right there. Donald Trump is the President of the United States and he has absolute authority over every person in the executive branch of government. That means that if he had actually ordered Mueller - or anyone else in the Justice Department - to be fired, they would be out of a job. The President of the United States does not "try" to fire people. He just does it. Period. End of story. That's just a constitutional reality.
Therefore, any headline claiming that Trump ordered someone fired, when it didn't happen, is lying. On its face, such a claim must be a lie.
And what do we have to back it up? Anonymous sources. Again! Defined this time as:
Here's the thing: If I say bullshit to four people it's not more credible than if I only said it to one person. Your source is actually trying to make this claim appear more true by saying four people were told about it instead of one. That makes no sense, but they do it anyway, even though it was likely only one person doing the telling. In other words, there aren't four sources - just one. And not only did the source not go on the record, neither did any of the four people mentioned.
This is what we call "fake news."
Now, it's possible he brought up the topic. It's possible he expressed an initial desire to fire Mueller and was talked out of it. But that is not that same as ordering the firing.
And there's nothing wrong with that! Every president floats and discusses all sorts of ideas and impulses but ultimately decides on something else. That is the path to most decisions made by any White House. So, once again the Leftist hysterical media has taken an ordinary event and pretended it's a scandal. Fake news.
However your claim is actually an "Alternative Fact-- not a True fact!!!
In case you are unaware of what an "Alternative Fact" is, Kelly Anne Conway makes it quite clear:
