Trump partly blames Sessions for Republican loss in Alabama: report
Fox News ^ | December 27, 2017 | Fox News

Posted on 12/27/2017 7:21:51 AM PST by Golden Eagle

President Trump reportedly blamed Attorney General Jeff Sessions for Republican Roy Moore’s loss in Alabama earlier this month because his departure from the Senate to lead the Justice Department necessitated the race.

Trump lamented the loss of the Senate seat to the Democrats and partly put the blame on Sessions for taking up the position at the Justice Department, which triggered the special election, according to a report from the Associated Press on Tuesday.

Trump has long expressed his concerns with Sessions, going as far as to say in July that he would have not hired him if he knew Sessions was going to recuse himself from the investigations into the alleged Russian interference in the 2016 election.

And if he had shown interest in running again, the state could have postponed the election. Instead Sessions sabotaged Moore by sting he was voting for someone else.

Funny thing with these Sessions worshipers. When the “thin’ arguments make no sense and they are stuck for an explaination, they claim the poster is against Trump by talking about Sessions. The two do not go hand in hand. Trump made a bad choice regardless how he made it. Sessions is clearly a default position to harm trump. The longer Sessions stays around the more damage to Trump. He can’t fire Sessions. He has already been threatened by the GOPe. He will never get another AG appointed. GOPe have blocked all recess appointments. Apparently the Sessions Circle jerk can’t seem to understand that concept.

I think they fall into 3 camps.

- Don’t like the bombastic Trump, but like the quiet little guy Sessions, and all he did in the Senate all those years

- Would like to think Sessions will eventually get the job dine, despite all his recusals

- Believe that Sessions and Trump actually conspired with Mueller to go afer Hillary, despite no evidence of it

All of those could lead to the downfall of the President, since I don’t think the last one has any chance of being true, but rather is designed to pacify people into a false sense of security.

I knew Shelby said that, but I hadn't heard that Sessions said that. Are you sure you've got that right?

Shelby backstabbed Moore.

Jeff Sessions Won’t Say If He Voted for Roy Moore

“I voted absentee,” Sessions told reporters. “I value the sanctity of the ballot.”

That's good enough confirmation for me. Yes, Sessions helped stab Moore in the back.

You are confused. People are not turning on Trump. We turned on Sessions bc his recusal stunt has been an unmitigated disaster. Quote Q to the likes of Schumer—i.e.: to Mueller’s cheering section.

I guess you missed the memo: Q is President Trump’s inner circle.

Q like most of the other 4chan or twitter blabbermouths are more likely to be deep state disinformation agents to convince you Mueller is a good guy and Trump has nothing to worry about. Do they ever mention the actual foot soldiers that are fighting to take on the deep state, like Jim Jordan, Chuck Grassley, or Devin Nunes? No, because that is who they are trying to distract you from keeping up with.

Bol. Oh yes, I am quite familiar with that unproven claim. It’s a joke. But the official Jeff Sessions fan club is desperate enough to grab any straw. Smh.

Q is probably Comey. He’s Mueller’s bbf, and a huge, proven devotee of aliases.

Right!! Comey was taking pictures out of the window of AF1 during Trump’s Asia trip. That makes sense.

You get a unique signature for every thread, as far as I know theres no way to validate that Q is the same in every thread. Could be different people LARP’ing.

Wat1381 • 46d
Days ago Q said Podesta plane would be forced to land and the media would report it. Time up days ago.

LARP FAIL. Game over already.

Wat1381 • 46d
Q also promised indictments of certain people and dates - that never happened. What has Q predicted with accuracy so far ? Has Q revealed anything unknown at all ? The conspiracy he insinuates ( Trump/Mueller swamp cleaning sting ) was around for some time before Q even posted the first word. He asks questions any person with an I Q should already have been considering.

Sure the CIA/NSA/FBI/XYZ have media control, the bias and censorship itself are telling : threads vanish from here , there and everywhere. ... None of them seem bothered by Q .His last lame attempt at playing the Riddler - CIA are here Pray- was laughable.

This Q thing is like a Captain America script.

QAnon is a social media campaign run by the government

gandalfsbastard • 46d
Or Q Anon the larper confirmed themselves by a craftily planed post at takeoff time with a file photo. Then later “confirms” it with another photo of the same thing he posted earlier.

AlvinItchyCock • 46d
But he[Q] did say indictment on the 3rd and Huma on the 6th. How do you explain that?

Harveyweinstein69 • 46d
Looks like the Podestas made a run for it through some back door method in some Jet but the military forced their plane down.

Jared Kushner is off on Saudi Arabia to scheme against humanity and Q hinted that he’s there for pedo stuff being SA is known for heavy pedophelia among the elite.

A lot of hings about following the Huma Abedin rabbithole.

Something about a certain news station going down.

And more.

First link has the bogus claim.

This is the reason why intelligence agencies can run shop on us and get away with it. Stop buying into false bullshit. It’s a waste of energy, focus, and time.

Want a real tip? Stop wasting time on anyone that posts questions and riddles.

I’m sure the RINOs will back Shelby a lot, too.

I’m skeptical. Elected a turncoat D AND an liberal pro-abortion, anti 2A D in successive elections.

Shelby is presently 83 years old. Should have been gone 10 years ago.

Trump endorsed Stange over Mo Brooks at McConnell’s urging. Trump and McConnell must share the blame. And then McConnell and the GOPe abandoned Moore over BS allegations.

That was the Primary, not the General. Trump supported Moore in the General, Sessions did not.

McConnell and the GOPe abandoned Moore over BS allegations.

Absolutely, when the allegations were first released. But they eventually supported Moore more than Sessions did, when it was Sessions direct responsibility to help seal that election, not other RINO's.
