Question:

If the consensus amongst the normal, non-Fox media is that the Nunes memo was a dud, but Fox insists that it was some huge bombshell...

....does Trump still try to fire Rosenstein based on the memo because he’s so caught up by his confirmation bias, or does he realize that no one outside of Fox views the memo as legitimate?

I’d like to hear some thoughts.

I caught the local talk radio

This is a DARK DAY IN HISTORY

this is high holy days on the right. Everything they've ever known is complete - bad big government, wild conspiracy theories (in 4 pages), ....well there is the odd anti-law enforcement thing.

German national news (in English, on cable TV here)
predicts Trump will use this 'memo' to clean house at the DOJ
in an attempt to block or end the Mueller investigation.

Predicting a government crisis in U.S.

German news asks:
"What is Trump afraid Mueller will discover,
or already knows?"
