I believe they had the dirt on Sessions way before he started supporting Trump. He was a plant from day one. And, understandably, Trump fell for it.

Trump must release the docs if only to set a precedent that we, the people,
who pay their salaries have a right to know what govt officials are up to.

Nice take.....could not agree more.
