Mitch McConnell sees 'no indication' Donald Trump might fire Robert Mueller. Um, what?

Mitch McConnell said something very odd Tuesday in an interview with Fox News Channel. Asked about the ongoing bipartisan effort in the Senate to pass legislation to protect special counsel Robert Mueller, McConnell said this: "I don't think he should fire Mueller and I don't think he's going to. So this is a piece of legislation that isn't necessary in my judgment." He added (bolding is mine): "There's no indication that Mueller's going to be fired."
