November 18 : Donald Trump picks Jeff Sessions for attorney general

FWIW, Trump has expressed that Sessions should have know then, that the campaign was going to be investigated, and that he (Sessions) would not be able to squelch that, becuase, as being part of the campaign, he would have the appearance of being partial so would either follow the conflict regulation, or flout it. If he knew that risk, Trump would have picked somebody else.

Nothing changes the reality that the question of Sessions’ recusing himself began to hit the news at least as early as late January, before and during his confirmation hearings. The Trump administration had more than a full month to make a team decision about that critical issue before Sessions recused himself on March 2.

All this 20/20 hindsight is ridiculous, and Trump is dealing out more of it with these comments this week about why Hillary is not being investigated, which he himself ruled out on November 22, 2016.

The WH and cabinet seriously need to begin coordinating their communications and decisions more closely and more professionally.

Maybe Trump and his butt buddies should have known all this stuff their selves before costing Alabama our best Senator.
