Dear Mr. President:<\/p>\n

I won’t take long to make this point, sir.<\/p>\n

You are getting a snootful from your fellow Republicans, the real Republicans who serve in Congress. They’re giving you some advice you need to heed and follow.<\/p>\n

Do not do anything to force the ouster of special counsel Robert Mueller.<\/p>\n

I say this hoping that you have a half a brain under that hideous comb-over on top of that noggin of yours. If you do you’ll understand that the crisis any such effort would launch. And from where I sit, it likely would not end well for you.<\/p>\n

I am presuming you’ve heard from one of the leading Senate Republicans, John Cornyn of Texas<\/a>, who told Politico that \u201cthe consequences would be so overwhelming” if you force Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein to kick Mueller to the curb.<\/p>\n

Hey, I’m not so sure Rosenstein would obey the order. He’s said already — and you’ve heard that, too — that he doesn’t anticipate firing Mueller unless there’s “cause.” Mueller, Rosenstein, said, is doing a fine job as special counsel.<\/p>\n

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell also has said Mueller needs to finish the job. Same with many other leading Republicans.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, if I were you, Mr. President, I wouldn’t take Sen. Ted Cruz’s silence on this matter as an endorsement of you or your conduct. Cruz says he doesn’t comment on tweets, which is likely a reasonable position to take. He said he won’t “focus on the political circus” that is unfolding in Washington.<\/p>\n

Whatever. Others are willing to speak out. You ought to heed them.<\/p>\n

I don’t expect you to act on what I have to say, or what other critics of you have to say. Democrats are p***ing into the wind.<\/p>\n

You preach fealty to Republicans, Mr. President. Now is the time to heed your own advice.<\/p>\n\n
