Report: President Donald Trump Tried Again To Fire Robert Mueller | The Last Word | MSNBC

Dershowitz is a professor. He hasn't practiced law in years. And if I remember right his specialty was criminal law not Constitutional Law.

An orange jumpsuit will look good on David Dennison

[byteresistor]

Trump and his cronies are 100% guilty. An innocent man doesn't act like this.

[SweetLilWren]

People getting fired for doing their job is utterly disgraceful

[cyndimoring]

The 3 time rule is how I handled my elementary students. Funny.

[galeh]

Just wondering... doesn't the US have a Vice President? Have not seen or heard from him for a long time. Perhaps he's on a long church retreat.

[brucehauge]

I can't stand Dershowitz. He always seems to think he is always right. Well hire him Donnie. The guy is pushing 80 and his mind is not at it's prime. Fact he's on FOX is all you need to know about Alan Dershowitz.

[DruUsucka]

If you listen carefully, you can hear Mike Pence and his wife rubbing their hands together like Birdman.

[upholdsanity]

The more Cheeto fires, the more Guilty he appears.

[WitchDoctor]

*People we are literally watching Watergate play out over again. Just insanity, get out your history and look it up!*

[markye]

Why should anyone care how upset Spanky gets now? He isn't important anymore except as a warning to history about ignoring a criminal moron's entire life while voting.

[jedirevan]

Its never the crime but the cover up that does them in

[gwen]

HOW IS THIS NOT OBSTRUCTION OF CONGRESS WHERE IS THE CHECKS AND BALANCES THAT YOU WERE ELECTED TO

[MR-intel]

If Trump wasn't so in love with himself, he'd have fired himself long ago.

[lesliepagel]

I wonder if the orange predator throws himself on the floor and has a temper tantrum

[thezigrat]

I think Trump would look very comfortable in a jail cell

[gwen]

This is the United States not trumps personal business and Congress needs to remind him of this!!!!

[fugeekue]

Please don't tell him how to do it

[shawnnewell]

I take it back he is also a Constitutional scholar. But his fame came in criminal law. Funny thing is his biography lists him as a liberal!

[josiesjems]

The Russian dirt on Trump has got to be epic.
