Chris Ruddy: Trump Is ‘Considering Perhaps Terminating’ Special Counsel Robert Mueller

Monday on PBS’s “NewsHour,” Newsmax Media CEO Chris Ruddy said President Donald Trump was considering firing Robert Mueller as special counsel.

Ruddy said  “I think he’s considering perhaps terminating the special counsel. I think he’s weighing that option. I think it’s pretty l clear by what one of his lawyers said on television recently. I personally think it would be a very significant mistake even though I don’t think there’s a justification … for a special counsel in this case.”

Mueller was appointed by Deputy Attorney General, Rod J. Rosenstein to investigate Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election
