Shh. They might find out.

Nah, Thursday nights are spirit cooking nights. They're busy right now.

I don't know. It seems unlikely that it would be McGahn. Could be Priebus, I suppose.

There are four sources. I would bet that McGahn and Priebus are two of them.

Looks to me like two more witnesses for Mueller. McGahn just became part of the investigation.

Well, Trump isn't really very good at firing people. He's actually pretty bad at it, they say.

That's probably why he loved doing it on his show, because it was all an act.

So why are we finding out about this now?

My theory - Trumps getting ready to try to fire Mueller again and somebody put it out there so Trump gets a feel for the backlash that will happen if he pulls the trigger on Mueller. The leak is an attempt to save Trump.

The idea of Trump testifying is terrifying him and causing him to freak out. It’s only weeks a way Trump is starting to feel the heat.

Trump took back the testifying. Now it's just a maybe.

And he's been a quitte at everything he's ever tried.

He’s been in everything, most notably the Flynn and Comey firings. Huge player. Read the twitter thread linked above.

No, it’s guaranteed. It’s not Trump’s choice. It’s Mueller’s. Trump has no way out. Talk to Mueller or talk to the grand jury.

So what will the GOP so?

Now we know Trump has tried to fire Mueller. Will the GOP soften their support or will they keep peddling Secret Society and secret memo BS?

If the reaction to this attempted Mueller firing is weak, Trump will move to fire Mueller soon. Time is short. Trump isn’t going to answer questions.

They’re gonna go with, as the first of multiple excuses, “this isn’t true because anonymous sources” closely linked with “is mueller’s team leaking? how inappropriate and illegal, let’s invetsigate Mueller.”

Does anyone wonder why the GOP is going to such great lengths to protect him? It can't be just for political reasons. This must go way beyond that. This is why I have no faith in them EVER impeaching him no matter what comes out. They are actively trying to cover things.

McGahn's already been interviewed by Mueller. http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/362946-white-house-counsel-mcgahn-interviews-with-muellers-office
