Well according to people here (yet to fact check) the President can fire someone like Comey. HOWEVER, in doing so, he's created a shit storm he may be unable to take cover from. If he was smart, he would've replaced Comey immediately. Instead he waited... waited until the investigation was underway. Now this wouldn't be AS bad (still be bad) as it is if it wasn't for him meeting the Russians the day after and that Trump hired a law firm to say he has no Russian ties.

Now, I do think Trump is guilty of Russian ties. But I also believe all of the above were bad timing for Trump. Had Comey been fired and replaced in Jan, the law firm hired a month ago or so, and the Russian trip happen as it were now -I doubt many would be connecting dots where they may not exist. But doing all 3 within a few days looks really, really bad

Hum, maybe he is still a fed, but just not the chief. I hope.

Also, on a lighter note. Spicer seems to be losing his mind: 

"After Spicer spent several minutes hidden in the bushes behind these sets, Janet Montesi, an executive assistant in the press office, emerged and told reporters that Spicer would answer some questions, as long as he was not filmed doing so. Spicer then emerged.

“Just turn the lights off. Turn the lights off,” he ordered. “We'll take care of this. ... Can you just turn that light off?”

Spicer got his wish and was soon standing in near darkness between two tall hedges, with more than a dozen reporters closely gathered around him."
