Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) told CNN Friday that he doesnt think President Donald Trump would actually fire special counsel Robert Mueller, despite reports that he tried to do just that over the summer.
While it was not clear whether Grassley believes reports from The New York Times and several other news outlets about Trumps attempts to get rid of Mueller, he said the news indicates Trump listens to his staff, according to CNN.
I just dont think the President, as unpredictable as he is, would fire Mueller, and I take the view, and I said so maybe not directly to the President, but indirectly to the President: Just let this work its course, he told CNN. When asked whether Trump should fire Mueller, he was firm: heavens no.
Grassley also told CNN he would consider legislation thats being pushed by Democrats to protect Mueller from being ousted.

Grassley should be charged with obstruction himself.
