There are pluses and minuses with Sessions. Much we may not understand until later. It is possible that Mueller is dragging out his investigation of the president due to the damaging counter information that will be presented at it’s conclusion. Once the dem’s have the house, his investigation will end with different conclusions or different crafting of the language of the report. It may well be that lacking any proof of Russian charges, the only way to continue attack this “presidency” and the republicans is to impeach Trump. Theater too good to miss. But once they go after Trump, the evidence of illegal monies, vote tampering, etc., will result in many congressional critters being prosecuted or being swing votes against Trump until they leave in 2020 just as the never-trumpers left the GOP ranks in 2018.
This is a pretty balanced view of Sessions. Yes, time will tell.
If Mueller's investigation causes even more trouble for Trump I think the net will be that Sessions was a horrible choice for AG, and cost far more trouble than he was worth. Of course if Huber pops up with 50,000 arrest warrants then Sessions was a genius. I think we'll know by the end of the year, it's not going to take a generation to figure it out.

I think Mueller is dragging out his investigation for exactly this reason. Unlike a lot of people I don't think he's going to issue any report any time soon. I think he will continue to take some action roughly once ever 60 days or so, just as he has. I'm sure there are a lot more small fish he can indict for nonsense. Jerome Corsi and Roger Stone both claim to be in his sites. Every time he charges someone, no matter how minor or seemingly disconnected from his original charter of investigation of Russian Collusion, he gets another 3 months, at least, to work before winding it up.
I believe his end game is to hold on until the end of the Trump administration, he hopes in 2020, at which point the new Dem DOJ will not prosecute the many Deep State Coup activities.
As long as his probe is running any attempt by Trump to expose the Deep State players will be met with outrage by Mueller and Trump will be stepping into the trap. Trump has been told, in writing, by Rosenstein that decalssifying FISA warrants will be considered Obstruction of Justice by Mueller. (Clinton was impeached for Obstruction of Justice. Trump wants to avoid that.)
I don't think Mueller gives a damn about the House impeaching Trump. I don't think he feels the need to provide them a roadmap, or a report, or work to their time frames. What's good for him and his cohorts is to keep the investigation going as long as Trump is POTUS, to keep Trump distracted, and to keep all the evidence against the Deep State bottled up. I have also heard that the OIG can not get a lot of evidence as long as Mueller is holding onto it. So: another benefit of the infinite investigation.
That's my current theory of what Mueller is doing.
