That's why Kav is still in the running.

And yes, the Rosenstein thing is a huge distraction/stunt. trump doesn't want the media covering the hearing on Thursday. He wants the media to cover him and breathlessly wonder if he will/won't fire Rosenstein. And yes, the media will play along because when trump says jump, they all yell, "how high?" SMH.
