I wouldn’t say I “revere” Sessions, I just think the anti Sessions trolling on FR is unfounded - nobody here has anywhere near enough information to justify the hyperbolic condemnation of Sessions.
Besides, the level of group-think displayed by Sessions haters here is a dead giveaway that it was an organized trolling effort aimed at discrediting Donald Trump as a weak and powerless POTUS who can’t control his own cabinet.
Have a little faith in the President - if he was that disappointed in Sessions he’s really not the type who would sit by for a year and a half and do nothing about it.
“Have a little faith in the President - if he was that disappointed in Sessions he’s really not the type who would sit by for a year and a half and do nothing about it.”
I have great faith in President Trump. And I think in due time, he will rid himself of Sessions. He would probably do so immediately, were it not for the fact that McConnell would not allow a vote on a replacement. That the GOPe “leadership” is actively doing everything in it’s power to thwart Trump and his agenda, is the reason, in my mind, that Sessions isn’t gone already,. So much to say, the President is having to “bide his time” at the moment, but it does not mean that he dosen’t want Sessions gone.
As far as Sessions is concerned, I think there is ample evidence or his lack of leadership, or more probably his active role in also trying to thwart the President’s agenda. You don’t have to know everything to be able to make a value judgement as to his fitness as AG. His selection was a mistake. He mislead the President about his true intentions.
“if he was that disappointed in Sessions he’s really not the type who would sit by for a year and a half and do nothing about it.”
President Trump has actually said “I’m very disappointed” in Sessions. And just for the record McConnell has said publicly that if he’s fired the Senate will not take up the nomination of a replacement AG.
So there’s that.
If Sessions had any shred of honor left he’d resign and save President Trump the grief of firing him.
