EXCLUSIVE: Trump cites lessons from Nixon, says he ‘was never going to fire Mueller’
"(WASHINGTON) — President Donald Trump told ABC News Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos that he did not fire special counsel Robert Mueller because “that didn’t work out too well” for former President Richard Nixon.
“I wasn’t gonna fire [Mueller],” Trump said in an exclusive interview with ABC News. “You know why? Because I watched Richard Nixon go around firing everybody, and that didn’t work out too well".

No, Mr. President, Article 2 of the Constitution does not give you the right to do whatever you want to do. If your actions are outright illegal or in the case of your administration and/or campaign being investigated are meant to obstruct that investigation, you cannot do what you want and you are subject to removal from office.
Article II doesn't grant any President the power or authority to do whatever he wants. The powers of the President are balanced with the powers of Congress and the judiciary.
At least Nixon had the sense to resign. Trump will request an uprising from his cult.

Just more deflection. He just can't face the fact that he isn't as popular among Americans as he wants to believe.
Trump already trying to lay the groundwork for his dictatorship. At this point, he only has about a 25 to 30% 0f a following. Does he really think his dwindling amount of followers are going to get him to stay in office? NO! About all that will keep him in the office is if he starts a war. This just shows what kind of fantasy world he lives in.

Trump, If someone doesn't tell the orange dictator wannabe what he wants to hear, FIRE THEM. Trump wants azz lickers that will tell him how great and grand and pure he is. He looks for people that are willing to lie for him and suck up to him tighter than a Hoover vacuum cleaner. Now he will go and try to find someone that will tell him what he wants to hear. Even if it's not true.
