Trump has tweeted to NOT believe any news unless it comes directly from him. Sooooo,,,we gotta wait.
That was said during the primaries, and in response to some particularly weird reports. The press, CNN especially, used that when his campaign put out an official statement that Trump believed Obama was born in Hawaii.
Just saying, there will be credible reports that don't come directly from Trump's mouth.
That said, a Team Trump spokesperson said exactly what you did, on the "offer to Sessions" report. There has been no official statement from ANYBODY on Team Trump, on this this subject. I think it is a leak from the Cruz camp.
