Why Won't Trump Fire Sessions and Rosenstein?

Posted on 07/12/2018 4:13:12 PM PDT by rebuildus

After hearing today that A.G. Jeff Sessions did not know if FBI Peter Strzok still has a top security clearance (apparently--incredibly--he still does), and seeing how untrustworthy Deputy A.G. Rosenstein is, I can't take it anymore.

So my question is, why hasn't President Trump fired Sessions and Rosenstein yet? I can at least a little bit understand not firing Mueller, since he essentially has the President under investigation, but there's no such "conflicts" with Sessions and Rosenstein.

Can someone help me with this? I really want to know.

“And he is allowed to lie to people about his intentions; courts have ruled that investigators may lie to the targets and subjects of investigation, even though it is a felony if targets and subjects lie to investigators.”

A VERY key point that needs greater recognition.

I BELIEVE wholeheartedly that Sessions is behind the scenes very quietly getting Trumps ducks in a row!!! Sessions was the VERY FIRST person and Senator OPENLY on the Trump train!!! With ALL of the flack that it took for him to do this it is impossible for me to believe that he is NOT on Trump’s train full throttle! This IS the DEEP STATE we are talking about here, Sessions NEEDS to be VERY QUIET AND CAREFUL while gathering evidence!!! I know many here think he has jumped ship HOWEVER when you sincerely LOOK at what the HELL is going on in this government WE ALL need to have faith in Sessions and give him the time he needs to DRAIN THE SWAMP it is DEEPLY embedded in the DOJ!!!!

The President is focused on the great job he is doing. I think this. The Democrats have totally destroyed themselves with the independent voters. Everyone knows there was a silent coup to overturn our vote that was treasonous and sedition per se. It is disgusting to watch such gross conspiracy to destabilize from our constitutional form of government.
Now having said that , I predict we hold the House and gain 3 to 9 seats in the Senate. We then totally dominate the appointment of two more supreme court justices and we build the damned WALL. And the leftists can suck it up butter cup.

One thing I do appreciate about Trump (among many) in comparison to the typical Republican: The typical Republican refuses to act, and says "wait till after this election" because he's a coward.

Whereas when Trump refuses to act, it's because he has a REASON.

LOL!

It’s not difficult to understand the President in regards to the Attorney General.

People want the media to give them results. I don’t give a damn who they are.

The President plays the media like a fine juice harp.

The President is winning every day. Think about it.

The buck does stop ultimately with Trump, but the buck goes to Sessions first. It’s a shame that the President, and America, is burdened with such a shiftless SOB like Jeff.

My suspicion is he knows he's innocent, they'll find nothing, let them hang themselves, fire them when the report comes out.

Maybe that's why the report is taking so long, in conjunction with dem strategical need to drag it out to make Trump look bad. At this point, it's turning swing voters in his favor.

Once fired - those two - after the report which will have nothing on Trump, he can completely claim it was all a witch hunt and they were incompetent and so biased as to be criminal - they will have proven his point without any question, EVEN DEMS will be angry at Rosenstein and Muller for getting their hopes up and dragged it on long enough to gain Trump support. Everything that was true all along in terms of crimes that have nothing to do with the Trump/Russia hoax is still true (all the other crimes that have been let to go by,) at that point, take all the action Sessions should have taken. In the mean time, keep storing ammunition against the evil.

it was mentioned on another thread that a new prez should NEVER pick sitting senators or even congressmen in blue states or iffy states...

its a loose/loose proposition...

I sure hope Sessions is honest...I pray to God he is...otherwise, I'm losing hope...

Sessions is a known deep-state plant. That much is CERTAIN. If you cannot see the obvious, then why visit FR. Just go to Politico and read about unicorns and rainbows.

Trump keeps him on so that the deep-state will not assassinate him.

While Trump is certainly not doing things that the evil imbeds would like, it is not yet alarm-bells and bug-out bags. Sessions keeps the deep-state complaisant. They feel safe because they know that nothing will be done against them.

What we have witnessed is an out-right coup in the United States.

In the rest of the world, conspirators, and co-conspirators are all rounded up and killed within hours. Not in the United States, oh no. Nope. Heck the media doesn’t even call it what it obviously is.

To them, it’s just another five second sound bite on Trump wanting two scoops of ice cream and how unfair it is.

We have to go through this long and lengthy song and dance that is taking far too long. It is wearing on us civilians. It is hurting us citizens. Yes, we want to take things in our own hands, but we are holding off. Holding off.

The deep-state still is playing the “forever war”, not at all realizing the dangerous undercurrents that swirl underneath their feet.

There will come a time when true violent outrage will act as an ignition to the millions of kerosene soaked civilians now beyond pissed off, and too tired to care anymore. I am not talking about the paid-for protestors by Soros and the Communist wing of the DNC. I am talking about real genuine working Americans who have had enough.

The best thing that Donald Trump can do is allow this macabre dance to playout...exposing the evil to the light of day, and then torture and hang the conspirators. Let me be clear. I mean...

A timetable. A plan. A set of goals. A set of fall-back positions. A period of corrective measures, and a very harsh period of punishment. Five years at club fed is NOT what I am talking about. You know it, and I would hope the rest of the readers on FR know this as well.

If he does not...

Either [1] the nation is lost, and you can join me off-shore in a freer nation like friggin’ communist China, or [2] bunker down because there are no other alternatives but to fight. At which point it would be fight for freedom! And it would be a real battle for real values.

Why isn’t Sessions aware of this? He’s a swamp dweller.

Sad. Sad.

Whatever they have on the keebler elf must be damaging. Why else would he stand by while his reputation is turned to manure
He will go down in history as a tool of the corrupt state. I never thought much of the guy but his cowardice is still disappointing.

Because the Never Trumpers in the Senate won’t let him pick a replacement to run the DOJ?

It’s my guess that after mid terms Sessions and/or Rosenstein will be gone. Gowdy will become either Atty General or Deputy. There will be a special council especially if the Repubs lose the house.

After hearing all this, I can not believe that Rosentein, Strok, and the rest of the cabal have been doing any real work for the past two years. They are full time political operatives. They should all be fired for that alone. It would free up their time to work on their defense and we would be rid of them. Win/Win.

Mueller needs to wrap it up and then the gloves are off. You know Mueller is going release all of his ammunition right before the midterms.
