The "fired" prosecutor says the Attorney General can't fire him because the job is guaranteed by the court order that appointed him to the job until the Senate confirms a replacement. It all comes down to how the courts interpret 28 U.S.C. § 546.



The other thing to watch is what is what happens in a closely divided Senate as the election approaches. Trump was probably better off nominating a replacement and letting McConnell get the nominee confirmed.
