In addition, the Kasowitz law firm represents Russia's largest state-owned bank (Sberbank) and Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska, a Vladimir Putin crony who had business dealings with former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort.https://www.vox.com/policy-and-poli...ial&utm_source=twitter&utm_content=1497538438
I admit to feeling uncomfortable with these stories coming out. If I were a recently elected President with no government experience, no understanding of Democratic institutions or principles, no understanding of the relationship between the Executive branch and all other branches, a need to protect myself in the short term to the exclusion of all long term ramifications, little or no impulse control and a compulsive need to make my fan base happy, I would fire Mueller right...the hell...now.
The fact that Republican congressmen are calling such a move "disastrous" strongly suggests they're aware the possibility he may go through with firing Mueller is a very real world scenario.
