President-elect Donald Trump has been deeply impressed with Senator Jeff Sessions, his transition team said on Thursday of the longtime supporter who is under consideration for secretary of defense and attorney general.

Sessions was one of the first 'Big Names' to come out in support of Trump while the rest of the political class was laughing. He put his reputation on the line to support a leader. Here's hoping his talents can be utilized in a Trump administration.

Sessions at a Trump rally in my hometown of Mobile, AL in 2015.

My Senator Sessions . . . light years ahead of Shelby. He is a first rate conservative patriot. Probably a little old for SCOTUS. Would be a superb AG and would do fine as SOS. I think I had rather see him as AG.

Jeff Sessions is at the top of the various conservative ratings.

Think Ted Cruz with a winning personality.

Sessions is a good man. He hitched his wagon on principle, not expediency and not for personal benefit.

I agree. Yet I hate to have him leave the Senate.

Senator Sessions is a true leader, and a great choice to clean out the DOJ.

Yesterday it was Guliani (sp?). I think Trump is having fun leaking out misinformation.

He also met with Kissinger. Wonder where he is planning to put old Henry?

Be still my heart. Sessions is an exceptional man. Don’t let his Southern ways fool you for a second. His legal reasoning is sharp and principled. He’s a great thinker and would clean the DoJ swamp to boot. Plus, he’s got a dry sense of humor.

I would prefer him to Rudy for this. I’d rather Rudy at DHS.

Kissinger may be good for occasional counsel via teleconference, but I would think he was far too old to be assigned any official duty. The man is 93 Year Old. Ninety Three!!
