Trump is the type of person that will create an inferno, then walk away to let others deal with it. My guess if he fires Mueller and Rothstein, Trump resigns after the pressure from those firings become too intense. He will leave Pence and republicans to avoid being wiped out by us in 2018 elections.

My only hope is Trump creates so much stink before resigning that republicans can't escape massive political damage in 2018 and 2020, nor Pence avoid losing in 2020.
