Yep. I can hear the backroom talk, in retrospect:
McConnell: "Hey, Jeff, Trump seems to be getting traction. You mind winging in there and pretending to support him? He'll likely give you a decent appointment that you can use to sabotage him."
Sessions: "Wah, glad to he'p out our cause, Mitchy, old boy!"
We need an Inside Man just in case the Impossible happens, Sessions was it, the Impossible Happened, Donald Trump was Elected. Sessions is Mitch’s Bitch and is doing what he was told to do, PROTECT THE RULING CLASS from this Outsider.
Didn’t the Pres hired McConnell’s wife??
