According to the just-released report, Trump really wanted Mueller "knock[ed] out."
n a press conference Thursday morning, Attorney General William Barr insisted that Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation didn't yield evidence to suggest Trump might be guilty of illegally attempting to interfere in the FBI investigation of his campaign’s interactions with Russia. But the Special Counsel's own report shows that the President made multiple attempts to fire Mueller.

According to the just-released report, Trump phoned up then-White House counsel Don McGahn in 2017 and asked him to get rid of Mueller:
On June 17, 2017 the president called McGahn at home and directed him to call the acting attorney general and say that the special counsel had conflicts of interest and must be removed… McGahn was perturbed by the call and did not intend to act on the request. He and other advisors believed the asserted conflicts were “silly” and “not real” and they had previously communicated that view to the President.
Trump didn't give up, and called McGahn a second time, asking less nicely.
When the President called McGahn a second time to follow up on the order to call the Department of Justice, McGahn recalled that the President was more direct, saying something like, “Call Rod, tell Rod that Mueller has conflicts and can’t be the Special Counsel.” McGahn recalled the President telling him “Mueller has to go” and “Call me back when you do it”… McGahn recalled that he had already said no to the President’s request and he was worn down, so he just wanted to get off the phone.
According to the report, McGahn was prepared to resign rather than fire Mueller and instigate what he feared might have been a Trump administration version of Nixon's Saturday Night Massacre. He apparently let then-White House Chief of Staff Reince Preibus and Chief Strategist Steve Bannon know that he was going to quit because the President kept asking him to do “crazy shit,” but the two talked the White House Counsel into staying on.
