Sessions blasts Tuberville for ‘being wrong on immigration’; calls it a top issue
Al.com ^ | June 22 2020 | John Sharp

Posted on 07/14/2020 9:20:06 AM PDT by rintintin

Former U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions attacked his July 14 GOP runoff opponent for “being wrong on immigration,” an issue that he calls “one of the most important issues” Congress is faced with as it wrangles with other concerns such as the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and police reform.

(I’m not saying) that it’s No. 1, but it’s right up there,” said Sessions during a news conference Monday in Mobile. “We have 11 million people here unlawfully. In some years, we’ve had 11 million people arrested at the (U.S.-Mexico) border. If we do this right, the number of attempts for entering illegally will plummet.”

“I didn’t defend H1b just pointing out it is a small problem compared to illegal immigration. It’s sad you are so low skill you could be replaced by a cheap indian drone, but that’s your problem, and there is a solution: Get good.”

Wow, aren’t you a nasty piece of work! And you are certainly no patriotic John Wayne.

“I voted Sessions and I don’t care what any of you think of that...“
****************************************************
That’s probably what I would have done...and hoped that the OLD Senator Sessions would emerge and fight the good fight on the immigration front.

I can’t see frustrating Trump all over again with a Sessions “middle finger” vote.

Sessions seemed such a decent guy before he was put into the Administration, but he abdicated everything within 24 hours that left our country in a terrible state for many years.

Sessions needs to be put out to pasture. He can’t handle responsibility under duress.

I guess Trump likes Tuberville. He also liked Bolton.

Trump liked Sessions and where did that get him?
Rosenstein, Mueller, Weismann and a deep state coup. Sessions has a nerve even running again at all. Hiring Sessions did more damage to Trump by far than any other hire. Sessions needs to find another line of work.

It’s what Alabama wants that matters.

If Sessions had not betrayed Trump, he would have stayed out of it.

Tuberville is pro H1B?
So what?
I don’t remember Sessions fighting against H1B when he was AG. Exactly what did he do about it then?

he was and would be a great Senator.

Show the proof, making red meat campaign promises accomplishes nothing. He had an opportunity to prosecute Governors and Mays for establishing sanctuary cities and did absolutely nothing. Unless you count going after pot sanctuaries.

“The mass immigration supporters in Silicon Valley thank you.”

You know, I agonized over this vote. Do you think it would be better having the deep state thanking me? That’s a rhetorical question. I really don’t care what you think. Maybe one day we can all be as smart as everyone on this site THIMKS they are.

Getting hysterical and totally racist are we?
What is wrong with Indians then?
The CEO’s of Google, Microsoft and plenty of big tech companies are Indians. Thousands of tech companies in Silicon Valley were founded by Indians.
Not to mention H1Bs were created by congress. What did Sessions do about it then?

Would you stay out of it if the actions of some guy caused you and your family great pain for two years?

“Without Sessions we would have had full blown amnesty”

Without Sessions as AG we likely would not have Mueller, the loss of the house, and endless investigations of Trump by the house.

Do you really think that Sessions will now support Trump? Who exactly do you think is supporting his campaign?

and this President has some real blind spots when it comes to the difference between fake gopes and true conservatives.

Trump's biggest blind spot was hiring Sessions. That was the biggest mistake of his administration.

Sessions IS the reason for the Mueller nightmare that lasted 2 years and cost $25 million. Sessions stood down and allowed Rosenthal to run the DOJ against Trump. Sessions does not deserve Trump’s support.

Tuberville has surrounded himself with Never-Trumpers and Deep State weasels.

The only positive is that they will remove Doug Jones. Other than that, the two of them stink on ice.

Republicans and Democrats love the Indian worker more than the American worker

They don't love the Indian worker they love the lobbyist's money they get.

Trump endorsed Romney for senate from Utah

As opposed to the Democrat? No chance Romney was not getting the GOP nomination.
