it is my vague impession that that the deep state congress critters are prone to impeachment hearings if trump fires sessions... (this might get corrected by someone as i am only following it from a distance...)
“it is my vague impession...”
Distant or not, yours is a valid impression.
The Never-Jeff crowd here can be quite silly at times. Blaming him for everything under the sun and acting as if he is somehow a deep state Dem or some such nonsense.
Sessions has been fabulous on what Trump said was his top priority for him: illegal immigration issues. Rounding up horrible MS-13 creeps, fighting and winning the court battles regarding refuge policies, attacking sanctimonious cities in a way none of us thought possible in the modern age, etc.
Not to mention taking on Planned Parenthood, looking into college campus fascists regarding free speech and discrimination against whites and Asians, and investigating leaks.
These are absolutely NOT the actions of a guy who is a deep state or Dem mole or whatever nonsense some suggest.
Most FR folks would agree the DOJ/FBI has been made rotten to the core and weaponized by prior admins over years and years. Yet they think Sessions can fix that overnight. And that he should, ironically, behave like prior DOJ political hacks and publicize secrets things and metaphorically hang people without trials.
Good proceeds more slowly than evil.
Plenty of Monday morning AG’s here say Sessions/Trump should have done this or that. And it’s OK to regret Sessions’s recusal on an emotional level. But it is something, in my opinion, which occurred mostly because Jeff is an uncommonly honest politician.
Who knows? Maybe Trump actually does have some sort of Spock-like 3-d chess abilities. Because, as folks here seem to forget, Trump can do/order any of the things the Never-Jeff folks desire - including firing Sessions. But there is no way that just firing everybody in sight would have worked out as well in the long run - politically anyway - as the current situation where the deep state is essentially hanging itself. Which is far more effective going forward if we want to win the battle for the hearts and minds of the less attentive majority of the voting public.
Essentially everybody in news/politics proclaimed the grand morals and credentials of Comey at one time. And Mueller. Etc. Now they are being shown to be the real colluding devils in a way that the public would never have known if we just followed the hindsight of the Never-Jeffers.
