1. There are sealed indictments, right?

Trump knows this. He also knows who did what. He also believes that all of those indictments will be released if Mueller is fired. Trump is in a corner. Good.

3. I think he'll do it immediately after the election if Dems take the House or Senate.

if they don't retake House or Senate, he won't do anything because spineless russian repugs will cover for him.

He’ll fire if Republicans keep the House because he knows they won’t lift a finger to stop him. But if Democrats take back the House, he won’t fire because he’s afraid they’ll bring the hammer down if he does.

5. He won't need to fire if Repugs keep all branches, they & SCOTUS will ensure drumfs' safety.

Dems, he has to fire because they will be going after him and would impeach if Mueller presents them with good information to do that.

I suspect that at least until now, he's been told it would be political suicide and black letter obstruction of justice.
