Comic book villain

Yes, it's leaking all over the place now. It seems he's also been stewing about wanting to fire Rosenstein.
Months after his reported effort to fire special counsel Robert Mueller, President Donald Trump is still fuming over the Russia investigation and has Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein in his crosshairs.

The President has been venting about Rosenstein -- who oversees Mueller and the special counsel investigation -- in recent weeks, according to four sources familiar with the situation. At times, Trump even gripes about wanting Rosenstein removed, two of those sources said. One source said the President makes comments like "let's fire him, let's get rid of him" before his advisers convince him it's an ill-fated idea.

Trump has come to view Rosenstein as one-in-the-same as Mueller -- another government official who is out to get the President, one source said.

Sources described Trump's frustration with Rosenstein as largely bluster.

"When this comes up -- everyone says, 'That's the death march. That's not going to accomplish anything,'" said one source familiar with the situation.
