Wtf? How are there even legal grounds for this? Why would anyone even obey the White House orders to do so given that they are the ones under investigation?

Trump would probably do it on the basis of
executive privilege.
Though ultimately I think that would fail as preventing Comey's testimony isn't in the public's interest but only in Trump's interest.
It also makes him look guilty, but Trump's irrational need to fight against any criticism prevents him from considering a larger picture.
