Trump Issues Statement On Sessions' Recusal
Zero Hedge ^ | 3-2-1017 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 03/02/2017 5:26:49 PM PST by blam

Just released by the Trump:

* Jeff Sessions is an honest man. He did not say anything wrong. He could have stated his response more accurately, but it was clearly not intentional. This whole narrative is a way of saving face for Democrats losing an election that everyone thought they were supposed to win. The Democrats are overplaying their hand. They lost the election and now, they have lost their grip on reality. The real story is all of the illegal leaks of classified and other information. It is a total witch hunt!

“He could have stated his response more accurately, but it was clearly not intentional. “

i.e., he didn't mean to lie.

That's what it will sound like to the Press and the Dems.

My exact point. The rest of the statement is flawless; why this big wart in the middle?

Unless it is a 3D chess trap, meant to bring Hillary Clinton's many contacts with Russians -- including selling uranium -- into a Special Prosecutors hands.

I feel that the administration handled this situation about as well as could be expected, if not perfectly, and I'd like to hear exactly what you think should have been done differently.

Fair question. I can rewrite the statement and it will become flawless. Allow me:

"Jeff Sessions is an honest man. He did not say anything wrong. He could have stated his response more accurately, but it was clearly not intentional. This whole narrative is a way of saving face for Democrats losing an election that everyone thought they were supposed to win. The Democrats are overplaying their hand. They lost the election and now, they have lost their grip on reality. The real story is all of the illegal leaks of classified and other information. It is a total witch hunt!"

There. Now it is perfect.

It’s certainly got Trumps speech off the front page.


We deplorables need to put it back!

I still remember the first time I heard Candidate Bush use the term “Compassionate Conservatism”.

Fed right into the Liberal narrative that Conservatives have no compassion and Bush affirmed it while thinking he was smarter than the average Bear.

You can’t cede Liberals one Molecule.

Good. I’d like to see the segment, if there is a recorded posted copy on the net.

Did you see the RI Democrat Congressman that came on the show following Sessions?

That was quite an act, oh the Humanity.

You’re exactly right, Laz. It was a tactical mistake to offer even the slightest hint of a concession. I’m hoping for a plan to which I am not privy. But I suspect otherwise.

At a minimum, you offer absolutely NO concessions. And at certain, well-chosen times, you need to hit them in the mouth hard enough to draw blood or dislodge a tooth.

Yes, definitely real.

Makes me wonder if perhaps the Russians are working with the Dems to undermine our current government.

Thank you, sir. When in battle, we do not willingly lose a single troop, unless there is a grand strategy in which the sacrifice makes the loss worth it.

I can only pray President Trump has a 3D chess long-game afoot. Perhaps it is that a Special Prosecuter is appointed to check out ALL administration and candidate contacts with Russia or ANY other nation or group (like ISIS), and the net result is charges against Clinton and/or Obama.

Otherwise, we sent a troop to his death for no good reason.

"If Sessions “ends up under the bus” I think that would mark the end of the whole MAGA project and Trump will cease at that moment to get anything at all done.."

Sessions will be just fine.

He's been my state attorney general and my US senator, he's an extremely mannered gentleman but don't misunderstand that as weakness.

He is strong and will survive all that is thrown at him...count on it.

Sessions recusing himself from the Russian investigation gives him more time to investigate the Clintons for violation of national security laws and influence peddling.

From what I saw from a Russian diplo-chick — where she reamed CNN — the Russians are just about fed up with Democrats too.

Yeah...Tucker's brow wasn't quite as furrowed with this lib, as it was with AG Sessions.

🤔
