He's going to fire Sessions, put Pruitt in charge, and have Pruitt fire Mueller in so many words, it was basically a lock before today.
But Mueller leaking that he's pressing TrumpOrg for their papers makes that a bit harder.
His ongoing chastisement of Sessions and the snap-firing of Tillerson are just him aligning pieces on the PR chess board to make his Sessions/Mueller play less obvious/grotesque.

the other wrinkle to this is what firing mueller would do to the midterms.
democratic turnout may be even higher than expected if this happens. the dems won’t have the numbers in the senate to remove him from office, but trump will 100000% be impeached if the dems take the house and mueller gets fired
nod, there is exactly no way centerist heartland republicans would be willing to overlook it. they are basically stacked up on the mueller team finding nothing and exonerating their boy. exactly no other outcome works for them, and they basically need exactly that outcome to stand tall and demonstrate to the world that they didnt just get curved by a ny real estate carnival barker and a bunch of fsb trolls. if trump robs them of that validation, it will go bad for him.
regarding your comment about the mccain republicans, im not sure there are that many at this point, and im also unsure if they represent any viable future for the republican party. because real talk there is exactly 100% overlap between the venn diagrams for the obama era tea party and the trump era republican agendas.
also apparently (and i swear to god this is true) the california democrats may have failed so totally to prune their ranks running for midterm seats that they are effectively going to cannibalize the democratic votes and knock each other out of the top 2 slot, aka *the only people who end up on the ticket*. so a bunch of hyper critical california seats may end up being contested by two republicans. seriously. thats the state of the democratic party at the moment. so whose to say heartland centerist republicans voting blue would even matter.

jesus i should really read more than one article before commenting.
vanity fair revised its earlier reporting to note:
“CORRECTION: An earlier version of this story incorrectly stated that Pruitt would not have to undergo a Senate confirmation hearing.”
so...apparently pruitt would need to be confirmed.
good luck with that, won’t happen

The problem is by making themselves the identity politics party, the Democratic Party is having trouble getting behind one candidate, because there are so many demographics playing the identity politics game here. You have the Mexican lobby, the black lobby, the gay lobby, the Hollywood Limousine Liberals, the Jews, the Unions. Everyone has their own agenda, and there isn't always a lot of overlap in these agendas.
