I realize the Democrats would love to place themselves above the law while still holding everyone else accountable, but no one is going to let them get away with that.
Since it was OK for Bill Clinton to break the law, it's also OK for Republican Presidents to break the law.

There is no question at all. The Constitution gives Trump absolute power to fire any person in the executive branch of the US government for any reason he wants.

It is rather a stretch to begin with to suggest that it could be obstruction for the official in charge of an investigation to decide not to pursue it. Officials decide not to pursue investigations every day in America.
But if it were ever obstruction of justice for the President to exercise his presidential powers, the obstruction statute would be instantly unconstitutional and invalid. The Constitution trumps any statute.
And since the courts are required to interpret the law in a manner that does not violate the Constitution if it is possible to do so, the odds of any court interpreting the obstruction statute in a manner that interferes with Trump's ability to exercise his constitutional powers, are exactly zero.

Trump has the Constitution on his side. I know the Democrats would love to overthrow our Constitution, but no one is going to let them do that.
