Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Alabama) endorsed Donald Trump at a campaign rally in Huntsville Sunday evening. Sessions ensured a "Gang of Eight" type of immigration reform bill will not will pass under Donald Trump
"There is an opportunity this year, Tuesday, and we have the opportunity -- we have an opportunity Tuesday. It may be the last opportunity we have for the people's voice to be heard. You have asked for 30 years, and politicians have promised for 30 years to fix illegal immigration," Sessions said.
"It is in my best judgment that in this time in history it is time to make America great again!" Sessions said to applause.
"I am pleased to endorse Donald Trump for the presidency of the United States," Sessions endorsed.

“ I did not say Donald Trump is the anti-Christ. No, I did not say Donald Trump is the anti-Christ.
I can’t cite the verses but I have always been under the impression that the anti-Christ would be very intelligent, eloquent, handsome, and - in the beginning - very likeable.
No, Trump does not appear to be the anti-Christ.”
Funny:)
Sessions was not happy with the gang of eight much less fast track.
Sessions and Trump are about the same age.
Thanks Senator Jeff Sessions! Make America Great Again.
I saw a post on my Twitter feed last night that Sessions was going to endorse Trump. It wasn’t well sourced but someone had a heads up.
Yes. You are correct. However Trump comes across with a lot of energy. He comes across, for his age as very youthful. Energetic.
No slight against Sessions. I have always admired him. :)
I lived and worked for 5 and a half years in Huntsville, AL which is part of the metro area including Madison. I even attended Mass regularly at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church on Hughes Road. I later switched to Queen of the Universe, a smaller closer knit parish.
If my ex-wife had followed me to where my career took me, we’d have 5+ kids, a monster house for only 200k, and one of them sitting on lawn mowers.
Very nice people in the Huntsville area. Southerners are very nice people compared to the rest of the country.
Of all the people I’ve worked with across the country, the Alabamans were the nicest, and that goes for ALL ethnicities there.
Close second place are the people in the Omaha/Council Bluffs area of Nebraska/Iowa.
The worst are the ones in Silicon Valley, CA or Santa Clara County and the rest of the SF Bay Area. Knives are always out there and you can’t leave your laptop computer at your desk when you leave at the end of the day cause there is a very high chance it is gone by the next morning.
Good endorsement for Trump.
I believe Trump will win the primary.
What has powered his rise is that he is truly the only candidate so far that understands that the middle-class is shrinking and the GOPe is NOT your friend. When I saw him filling that HUGE vacuum, a vacuum I assumed would be filled many months ago by Gov. Scott Walker, I knew he’d be VERY popular.
One thing I really noticed while doing charity work in the Huntsville/Madison area ten years ago was how the immigration issue was hurting the employment prospects of low-skilled workers and those on welfare.
Immigration, both legal and illegal, were devastating as it kept the hourly wage so low that people were actually making more by NOT working and staying on welfare. Many of our clients simply had no work ethic anymore.
If the hourly wage was simply 3 more bucks per hour on average, many people might have had at least a minimal push to work.
The globalists, the Kochs, Murdochs, Romneys, FoxNews, etc. don’t really care about the little people of America.
With only a drop in marginal tax rates of from 39% down to 30&, it would easily finance higher wages/benefits to get people to work for those that want to work, plus millions even billions leftover for investment, dividends, etc.
But they not only want low taxes, but the entire world to migrate here.
What they want is the world from the movie “Elysium”. Elysium is where the Bernie supporters want to live, but also the globalists of both the GOP and Dems.
We are slowly headed there, but it does not have to end that way for the USA. Let the rest of the world live like that.
WOOOOOHOOOOOO! HOORAY Jeff Sessions
There’s somebody left in CONgre$$ we can support? Who knew?
(Jeff was on my short list…almost all of the 535 are Unipartarians)
Trump is not a conservative.
Jeff Sessions was, but he no longer is. Dead to me, and that is saying a lot. Sessions was perhaps THE stalwart of the Constitutional conservatives. If Sessions has betrayed conservatism, which he has, then I’m done.
Sweet Meteor Of Death 2016.
Don’t worry. Lamar Alexander will sweep in on his mangled horse and save you.
I just found it sad to see that poor animal with the alligators munching on him. No political association to the comment :)
