Explaining Jeff Sessions
American Thinker ^ | June 10, 2018 | Hugh McInnish

Posted on 06/10/2018 7:06:42 AM PDT by libstripper

I have known Jeff Sessions for a long time. In 1994, he was running for Alabama attorney general, and I was running for the congressional seat presently occupied by Mo Brooks. Jeff and I, then, were on the same GOP ticket in my congressional district, and we showed up at times on the same stump. He won, and I lost. Out of 50,000 votes cast in the primary, I came up 23 votes short.

Good article. Pretty well explains the kind of man Sessions is.

We all know good people who find somewhere else to be when a fight is brewing. Perhaps Mr sessions would be a better fit as an ambassador to Switzerland.

The Daily Caller reported that both Carter Page and George Papadopoulos were hired by Sam Clovis, the Trump campaign’s co-chairman, but the source of this information remains anonymous. It is more likely that Jeff Sessions was responsible for hiring both Page and Papadopoulos for the Trump campaign because they reported to him.

It’s curious that the only person on the Trump team that recused himself from the Russia farce (Sessions) is also the person who was the Chairman of candidate Trump’s National Security Advisory Counsel which includes the most notorious individuals on the Trump campaign team. Does Sessions know more than he has let on?

He doesn’t sound like a bare-knuckles fighter.

Perhaps he is better suited to a behind-the-scenes role, where he coordinates the actions of others without publicly confronting anyone. It might even appear that he is doing nothing, but meanwhile, through subtle, non-confrontational means, he carries out his appointed duties.

In a word, Jeff Sessions is a splendid man caught by circumstances in a job for which he is ill suited. For the good of all, he should be reassigned to a job for which he is more suitable.

Yep.

My friend Jeff is no bare-knuckles fighter. At this critical time, what we need for our attorney general is an ass-kicking George Patton; what we have is a soft-spoken Billy Graham.

DOJ is the political brain and nerve center of government. It should be obvious to everyone now - its political warfare, using the law. The President needs a true loyalist and ally. Joe Kennedy Sr. insisted JFK appoint his brother. Reagan had long-term friend Ed Meese. Obama had true fellow travelers (he even made sure they were black) Holder and Lynch. They lied, covered-up, and plotted for obama - they pushed Obama's radical agenda.

I don't know how Trump missed this obvious fact.

I did not know this about Sessions. It’s hard to believe Sessions is as stupid as he appears. Sessions most likely is a sinister DS plant.

President Trump eviscerated Jeff Sessions the other day at the FEMA hurricane briefing. He brought his cabinet, the First Lady, and a roomful of aides and officials long with him.

He singled out each cabinet member and told them what a great job they were doing and listed some of their accomplishments. All except for Jeff Sessions, that is. Trump gave him a perfunctory “Thank you Jeff. Thank you very much”, then moved on.

It was like Trump arranged this gathering with the express purpose of humiliating Sessions.

See for yourself. The President begins speaking at 3m 15s =>

“Sessions most likely is a sinister DS plant.”

That’s where I’d put my money.

I agree. Sessions was just a terrible choice.

AG Sessions is actually a highly competent prosecutor who conducts investigations quietly without telegraphing his every move to the media. Which is exactly what anyone would want, it just offends the sensibilities of FReepers who thing they are entitled to know every detail in real time.

Think what you want, I could care less, as could Jeff Sessions. The truth will be known in the end and someone will look like a fool. It won’t be me.

“Sessions most likely is a sinister DS plant.”

Looks like it. Backup, for backup, for backup, just in case Trump wins.

Purpose? Protect the Woodstock hippie mafia from prosecution. Put good old Fake rat FBI in charge of possible investigations, while they ran around writing "What Happened" fake books.

Every time Sessions appears on TV, it reminds me wet scared chicken, checking if anyone is going to slap him. Some AG!
