However, during a conference call with Rosen’s department, employees unanimously stated that they would all resign if Rosen was removed from his post. Trump reportedly stood down after being advised that firing Rosen would set off waves in the Justice Department and in Washington. The controversy would not aid in his covert effort to overturn the election, according to the reported understanding of his thinking.
