President Trump has been providing cover for Sessions and the media ate it up.
Thank you President Trump.
Thank you Mr. Sessions.
——————————————————————————————Trump paints Sessions as ineffective while in reality Sessions has been diligently building towards a set of indictments starting with leakers, Awan and the Dems associated with him. Takes their eyes off the ball and maybe even goads them into publicly defending the very guy who’s about to take them down. Also a big FU to the NYT by using them as a tool to trick the dems. He feeds them obvious BS showing they are beneath his contempt.
If things play out according to this angle it will be truly delicious.
During and after the verbal abuse of Sessions by Trump. The left begins to love and protect Sessions including the Mediots. The GOPe gives Session their support and condemn Trump:
This allows Sessions to go on a unforeseen raiding/scalping party. Jeff fires Mueller and his left wing lawyers Then, he fires any remaining liberals in the FBI and DOJ. Next he brings charges against the Clintons, Podesta and DNC leaders claiming they were in bed with Mexico, Russia and the Ukrainians and led/allowed meddling in last year’s election. Then, Jeff goes after the ChiComs for meddling in our 2016 elections.
Next, he can start withholding federal $’s from any sanctuary city and state.
While the mediots and the Deep Staters go ballistic, Trump can say that Sessions acted on his own, but it was too late to reverse what he had done.
He will then say that Sessions will remain as AG until his replacement is approved quickly by the Senate.
Now, Trump can pick another AG to replace Sessions. His big club will be, “Approve my AG replacement or I will leave Sessions in charge! If that happens, none of you will be around in a year. He will investigate all of you. ‘You all know’ that Sessions is a bona fide crazy conservative from the Deep South. He hates all of you. So quickly approve my new AG!”
After President Trump’s replacement AG is approved by the Senate. Sessions retires and goes home to write his personal novel “I was an Attorney General”
Year later when Pence is president, Sessions releases that book telling, how he and Trump conned the Senate and the mediots into allowing/abetting Sessions to drain the swamp.
Real nice analysis, Dave. One thing I know for sure: with Trump in the White House, America is in good hands...
Sessions can't fire Mueller.
I wonder if making this “announcement” isn’t something akin to lighting the brush pile (or garbage) on fire just to see what comes running out from the crevices...
Attaboy Dave, you nailed it!
Were this to happen, replacements have to be locked and loaded and waiting in the wings. Now IF this IS all 3D chess, perhaps this is what Sessions has been doing for the last 5-6 months while he *appeared* to be doing next to nothing....acquiring and vetting replacements.
Fun, fun, fun!
Good fairy tale.................
You have some real talent that is going to waste
Interesting conjectures. So do you think Pence will run for President in 2020, or that Trump will be gone before then. You speak of “a year later”. Your time table on Senate action on a new AG???
