I have plenty to say, and said it well.

It’s your delicate sensibilities that prevent you from comprehending it.

Strictly a matter of opinion. And childish name calling is not saying anything well.

The Rift Between AMERICANS and AG Sessions is ALSO Very Real and Very Valid…

Sessions is an establishment guy and doesn’t have the heart to drain the DEEP STATE SWAMP. I’m not sure Giuliani is fitted for that task either.

President Trump, get an outsider, a non-politician freedom-lover who is ready, willing and able to withstand the heat and get the job done.

The right person for this job, may very well be the one to step into the WH in 2024 and finish the job of restoring our Free Constitutional Republic.

“Could someone please explain to me why Sessions didn’t tell Trump that he was going to recuse himself.”

Before JS’s confirmation hearings I might be able to understand why. I don’t have a timeline in front of me but am not sure it was on the radar that the Russia thing was going to explode as it has.

After confirmation, though... when a reporter caught DJT walking into a meeting and asked him his thoughts about Sessions’ recusal re Russia... ouch! He seemed to be surprised by it, like maybe this was the first he’d heard about it. And the anger on his face was incredible. JS never should have recused re Russia. But when he decided, DJT should’ve been the first person who knew about it.

How is Trump wrong? He can’t express his thoughts? This kind of brutal honestly is what we voted for. Sessions should have told Trump that if abc occurs then I’ll have to remove myself, it would have given Trump an option, which is all he seems to be complaining about. The other part is what all of us feel, if they are going to go at Trump so hard over Russia then why aren’t there 10 other investigations going on into every Obama era official.

Maybe I was too influenced watching The Bear Bryant Show while growing up. The Bear never criticized his players or assistant coaches in public. I think most people agree with that. But one day I heard a former player say that: On his show Sunday afternoon, everything that went wrong was the Bear's fault. When we got to practice Monday afternoon, nothing was his fault.

Some things are best handled in private.

When the question of Sessions recusal was in the news from late January to March 2 when Sessions recused, why didn't someone in the WH pull those involved together to discuss the legal, ethical and political issues and make a team decision about what Sessions should do?

The administration needs more communication and coordination and that will have to done from the WH. Several executive departments have strayed from the issues that Trump ran on.

“I don’t want to hurt the Clintons, I really don’t,” Trump said. “She went through a lot and suffered greatly in many different ways, and I am not looking to hurt them at all. The campaign was vicious.”
When asked what he would say to his disappointed supporters, he said: “I think I will explain it that we in many ways will save our country.”

Until Hillary Clinton and her cohorts are prosecuted, we no longer have the Rule of Law in the United States of America.

Or Grand Juries period.

I know they can and will, but I ould like to see on here how the charter members of the Jeff Sessions Worship cult explains this: "Awhile back" is January 10, in his contentious confirmation hearing. GRASSLEY: During the course of the presidential campaign, you made a number of statements about the investigation of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, relating to her handling of sensitive e-mails and regarding certain actions of the Clinton Foundation. You weren't alone in that criticism. I was certainly critical in the same way as were millions of Americans on those matters, but now, you've been nominated to serve as attorney general. In light of those comments that you made, some have expressed concerns about whether you can approach the Clinton matter impartially in both fact and appearance. How do you plan to address those concerns? SESSIONS: Mr. Chairman, it was a highly contentious campaign. I, like a lot of people, made comments about the issues in that campaign. With regard to Secretary Clinton and some of the comments I made, I do believe that that could place me objectivity in question. I've given that thought. I believe the proper thing for me to do, would be to recuse myself from any questions involving those kind of investigations that involve Secretary Clinton and that were raised during the campaign or to be otherwise connected to it.

I want Hillary in prison too. And Lois Lerner. And Bill Clinton. And I could go on and on. What I don’t understand is why everyone has their pitchforks out just for Sessions. I just posted a quote from Trump. Yes he said he’d go after her BEFORE he was elected. He did a complete about face after he was elected and said she’d been through enough. He had no intention of going after her. So why would Sessions?

Now that the heats on him months later he wants to get on Twitter and slam Sessions for not doing the very thing he said he wasn’t going to do, go after Hillary! Now he’s pissed at Sessions because McCabe is still interim head of the FBI. He has recused himself from all of the Russia crap so he is no threat to Trump. Trump should be angry at the Senate that his appointment of Wray has not gone through yet, not Sessions. Once that happens then McCabe will be out.

And if he did say the only reason Sessions supported him was because of the big turn out in Alabama, that is just a damn lie, and a sleazy one at that. And everyone here knows it, even if you won’t admit it.

Sessions should resign TODAY.

Yep, and there is some percentage of them who will stay home on election day if they find a candidate's behavior or attitude objectionable, even if it helps a Dim in the election.

Why would you vote for a candidate who did not support what you support?

What I would do, or what you would do, is irrelevant. There are, and have been for a long time, some conservative voters who will not vote for a Republican candidate if they object to some social issue stance or personal behavior question.

Doesn't matter whether anyone likes it or not, there are simply some conservative voters who are that way.

Whatever there is substantively between Trump and Sessions, the relationship is poisoned. It had better end sooner than later.

Since you evaded the question, let me put it this way.

Why anyone vote for a candidate who did not support what they supported?
