<< Do you ever think there is something “off” about the level of Sessions hate on FR? >>
It’s not hate. Most just viscerally disagree on Sessions and will meet up again, together, down the road.
Sessions was always held in the highest regard around here, admired and appreciated by everyone, for keeping his head down and lending great senatorial arguments to conservative issues. (He sent his researcher and young guru, Stephen Miller, to Trump’s campaign where he remains today, in the administration as a loyalist to Trump.)
A few things happened.
Many saw the Sessions recusal as a disaster that paid tribute to Sessions own fine principles, but betrayed a president and a nation that needed him to forge the way to DRAIN THE SWAMP.
A few others saw the recusal as a saintly act made by the good boy Sessions.
Both are true.
The defense of Sessions by his supporters didn’t sell around here. Too much hurt, disappointment and the feeling of rank betrayal, and a stab in the heart to our hope of blowing up the Swamp in warp time.
Arguments got heated and eventually it followed that some Sessions defenders added to their arguments the assuring opinion by “Q Anon” and The Conservative Treehouse (which I also read) that Sessions & Trump were simpatico.
The argument emerged that Sessions and Trump were in a grand scheme together, using theatrics, and mis-direction, all of it to execute the Swamp draining goal and prevail.
It will be fun if that turns out to be true, but for many of us, the social media remains a maze of mystique and lure, but full of dust bunnies that you can’t ever quite get your arms around. None of it really helps Sessions, but it remains an argument for his defenders, because CTH and “Q” both support the theory that Trump & Sessions are in cahoots.
The rest of us like to see flames before we believe victory is ours. There is simply no victory without justice, trials, convictions and jail time for corrupt elites and so far, it’s intrigue, reams of words, rabbit trails, but no justice, yet.
We’ll get there.
Pompeo may be the one. Maybe he can lead a charge to sanitize the corruption at Justice and the FBI. There are good men and women still in those departments that don’t like what has been for years going on, in either department.
The meme that I resent the most is when people conflate support of Sessions with Q fanaticism.
I have always thought the whole Q thing was silly. D&D meets Lord of the Rings. I couldn’t be more outspoken about how silly I think the Q thing is, yet the minute I come to Sessions’ defense, I am accused of being brainwashed by Q.
The other annoying meme is the whole 5D chess straw man. The idea that to suggest that Sessions is accomplishing things unknown to the public, or that Trump may have a strategic purpose for saying things - that it would somehow be farfetched. Such behaviors are not far-fetched -
They are standard operating procedure.
Anyway, thanks for the straight answer with no insults, hyperbole or non sequitor - I appreciate it. I suppose I disagree here and there, but that’s par for the course!
