'White House aides encouraged conservative allies in the media to not provoke the president.“We are experiencing tonight a massive constitutional crisis. '
'Trump’s advisers have argued that leaving Rosenstein in place preserves more options for the president as the Mueller investigation unfolds. '
'And he should fire him immediately after if he does not comply in full,” former White House chief strategist Stephen K. Bannon said in an interview. '
'The White House, through various back channels, made clear that no such shake-up was coming, according to two Republicans in touch with Trump administration officials. '
'Those advisers also told Trump that it could benefit him that the people he sees as his enemies are portrayed as conspirators. '
