I really liked Sessions prior to his nomination as AG. He was what you said - a reliable conservative.
However, he put a knife in the back of Trump that is still hurting him (and us) today. I think he lied to the President by not telling him he would recuse himself and were it not for him the special counsel would never have been appointed. Somebody would have told FBI to put up or shut up on their evidence.
Sessions failed bigly when it counted.
Sessions = just one of the many spineless GOPE critters.
mama had an Yuge litter of them. No matter from what height they fall; just like d’rats, they seem to land on their feet.
Not many would care to vote for a critter who attempted to sell us down the river. What was his reward for such an action? A paragraph in “Peter’s Principle”?
