PoliticsSources: Trump weighed firing Pirro over Reflecting Pool reversal

President Donald Trump considered removing US Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro after the handling of the Reflecting Pool vandalism case changed direction. Trump had accused Pirro of having “choked” over the matter. Multiple sources said he did not dismiss his longtime ally during an afternoon meeting at the White House, and Pirro did not submit her resignation. People familiar with Trump’s thinking said he had been weighing the move after the Justice Department concluded that defects in the pool resulted from a flawed renovation rather than vandalism.
