Sessions was one of my top 5, maybe top 3 Senators until not that long ago.

Shoot, I called his office in maybe 2014, asking them to put me on a donor list if he ever ran for nationwide office.

President Trump saved me that money too.

he recused on almost all potential swamp investigations.

All Swamp Investigations Eh?

You misstated what I said.

Read it again. I said "almost all". And then I gave examples.

Post it.

You've had almost a year to do your own homework on the subject. Why don't you go find the confirmation transcript and read it!

Your (eyedigress') comment sounds like something arrogant Peter P. Strzok would say

Great analogy. We're supposed to just sit back and accept what the gods in washington are willing to share with us, ya know. Mr. Sessions has been there for a while now so must be above reproach. /s

I didn’t Smear the President of the United States, YOU DID.

No I didn't, I simply used your own words to show you're more loyal to the backstabber Sessions than you are to Trump. You clearly see Trump as a bodacious blowhard that needs someone just like Sessions to keep him in check. It's fairly common with Sessions supporters, so don't be so surprised you're not under the radar.

You said that ANY AJ was better.

No I didn't, I asked you to name another AG whose first accomplishment after being sworn in was to get his President investigated by a special counsel. The fact you can't find one is why you're stuck with trying to change what I said.

Since you're now down to talking in circles and trying to put words in my mouth, my work here is clearly done.

Unfortunately it's become an all too common opinion from Sessions defenders.

It's downright Peter P. Strzokian.

I am curious, who are you comparing him to?

Basically any Attorney General in the past. GSM

That's not what I said, you clearly cut off the majority of the post in order to deceive. I'm leaving this thread now but here is is again for the record, that has set you off multiple times now because it contains Trump's complaints about Sessions:

Basically any Attorney General in the past. Can you name another who recused himself, which resulted in a special counsel being appointed to investigate the President? Trump himself has had some choice words for this, calling Sessions quote "weak," "beleaguered," and "unfair to the President" off the top of my head. Then today Trump unfavorably compared Sessions to Obama's AG Eric Holder, with regard to their support of the President.

If my point was a relatively new point, I would agree with you that that it was up to me to document the point. But you've had 11 months to do your homework and I've posted the transcript excerpt too many times to count now, and it really should be common knowledge. Especially from you, a big Sessions defender.

Hearing Transcript Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing on the Nomination of Sen. Sessions to be Attorney General GRASSLEY: Day 1 January 10, 2017

Sessions has recused himself from any potential "Clinton e-mail" investigation, the potential "Clinton Foundation" investigation, and investigation that might "otherwise be connected to" those investigations. That would include the dossier, the FISA warrant, Uranium One...etc.

I've given you enough rope.

You should be embarrassed that you are not familiar with Jeff Sessions' recusals.

Of course it isn't. Lets throw this out as well.


his Presidency has been great, especially with regard to what would have happened under Hillary. Unfortunately, however, it’s been somewhat clipped at the knees by a selfish if not crooked Attorney General, whose actions have resulted in a special counsel being appointed to investigate the President almost immediately after he was sworn in, when there was no evidence supporting the appointment other than what has since been proven to be tainted.
