This is a weird mistake

Trump appointed republican Rod Rosenstein

This is such a lazy, tired talking point. Just because he's a Republican doesn't mean he isn't a swamp rat. Unlike Democrats, Republicans don't worship party over all else.

Even supposedly sane liberals/democrats won't hesitate to turn their back on lifelong friends and even members of their own family if those friends or family members disagree with them politically or heaven forbid commit the unpardonable sin of supporting or admitting to not hating Trump. There are too many countless real life examples of this to point too. The "swamp" in Washington which includes establishment insiders from both parties treat Washington outsiders with a similar level of vitriol, hatred, and intolerance that Democrats do to those that threaten their power.

As for Trump appointing Rosenstein, he probably assumed the people he appointed were decent principled people who wouldn't actively and deliberately try to sabotage him and his presidency so the "but he's a republican" talking point doesn't mean jack####.
