I think you’re correct.
The idea that Sessions is twiddling his thumbs all day with no idea what he’s doing is rope-a-dope with an intended purpose, and I’m starting to think some in the conservative media and maybe even talk radio may be in on the ruse.
I should add to my previous post. . .
For example, in the case of talk radio:
Howie Carr (WRKO Boston) and Mark Simone (WOR NYC) are both YUGE Trump supporters. They’re literally friends with the guy and their shows have big ratings in their markets. They even sub for each other, and have each other on one another’s shows. Very symbiotic.
I am an avid listener of both. Daily.
Mark Simone is virulently sour on Sessions, and rips him to shreds every time his name comes up. Is always saying he has to go, and that he’s not going to last, that he’s a disaster, etc.
Howie Carr, who is very much a no holds barred kind of guy, on the other hand, is mostly silent on Sessions, but when he does come up, does not seem to buy into this idea that there is a massive schism between he and Trump. I think there was a listener poll recently that they post online where they ask if Sessions should be fired and when Howie gave his answer, it was an emphatically stated no.
I can’t believe these two haven’t had a conversation about this... And I’m trying to recall if they discussed it when they have had each other on as guests, but I can’t right now.
Hell, they’re probably both FReepers for all I know!
Anyway, take all that for what it is, but it is an observation I’ve made....
