The “so what” is that without an AG, the assistant now in charge of Russia will be the one to appoint new special counsel, and apparently he will not do so.
Sessions’ appointment was a disaster. He was a good senator, and now we will be lucky to get Moore in his place, if Moore doesn’t find a way to blow it.
Had Trump appointed ANYONE else for AG there would be no Russia collusion special counsel, and there would be special counsel for the other matters.
I have been a long time critic of that fine Southern gentleman Jeff Sessions. I have said he alone bears responsibility for the destruction of President Trump, although this tax bill may help.
I would presume that anyone with a brain considering firing Sessions would also fire his number two and as many as it takes to get to a patriot replacement.
This whole special Council fiasco could not have worked out any worse if Sessions was a paid Democrat shill.
