Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) weighed in on President Donald Trump’s confirmation that White House counsel Don McGahn will leave this fall, begging the President not to let him go.
@realDonaldTrump I hope it’s not true McGahn is leaving WhiteHouse Counsel. U can’t let that happen

What weird framing. “You can’t let that guy quit”. Does Grassley consider McGahn to be some sort of indentured servant, or is this just abject fear speaking?
Bro-crush?
Who does Grassley see as the replacement? Someone signaling bad news for the GOP in the midterms? Someone who’ll signal Trump expects impeachment?
Why?
I imagine they see McGahn as a sobering influence. He’s pulled Trump back from the cliff, according to his own leaks, at least, more than once.
