President Trump is talking to Senator Ted Cruz and others about what they would do differently as Attorney General, should Jeff Sessions resign, as reports indicate.
White House sources also report President Trump was truthful when he made comments expressing buyer’s remorse over appointing Jeff Sessions to the role. Trump staffers believe Sessions, Donald Trump Jr, and Rohrabacher aide Paul Behrends were unfairly scapegoated due to the left-wing Russia narrative.
In addition, a replacement for special prosecutor Bob Mueller is being acitvely discussed as the President weighs the decision to fire the Rosenstein-appointed prosecutor. Many within the Trump camp see Mueller as acting in bad faith with the investigation due to partisanship, and are urging the appointment of a truly independent alternative.
Facing criticism as a political witch hunt by many, Bob Mueller has hired a who’s who of liberal activists as his team of prosecuting attorneys. Research on Muller’s prosecutors is being conducted for the administration by Chuck Johnson’s team. Finally, top Trump donors are funding their own research operation independent of the White House in order to push back against the media’s fake Russia narrative conspiracy theory.
Not possible.
How could we or Pres. Trump ever trust Lyin Ted?
He’s not, he is a Bush amnesty guy.
If Felito had played nice to start with he would likely already be Attorney General. I can’t stand the guy but he or Trey Gowdy would be better than Sessions.
Cubanadians are not eligible to be President.
Cruz would be a great asset to the president. I would love to see him heavily involved.
Perfect. Five words. Well done.
Lying Ted? After the way they each went after each other and their spouses? To me it just illustrates how much of a scumbag all politicians are. Sleazy at every turn.
Our politicians are pathetic.
Natural born citizen = born here of citizen parents
Children of foreign nationals inherit their parent(s) foreign nationality.
The last King of Thailand was born here. He was not eligible to be President.
I love the way you put this. Sessions surrendered while the libs were still loading their cannons. He abdicated before he got started. And he has allowed the president to be needlessly bloodied while he chases pot smokers.
I absolutely loathe the man.
I am a Constitutionalist.
People who use the term “birther” are not.
“Children of foreign nationals inherit their parent(s) foreign nationality.”

Nonsense.
.
Tell that to the government of Mexico.
Precisely.
Boy, the Chicken Little hand-wringers are out in force lately!
I couldn't disagree more with their hysteria.
The President knows he's innocent of any wrongdoing with respect to Russia, and he's not going to let a clearly rogue Robert Mueller and his partisan Democrat team of lawyers to stymie his Presidency for the next 3-1/2 years.
President Trump's self-confidence has clearly taken an upturn. He should do whatever he feels is right, say "damn the torpedoes", and get things back on track. That will never be feasible with a Special Counsel whose sole purpose seems to be to stall of the President's agenda—while acting as a publicly-funded opposition research agent for the Democrats.
Enough of this Deep State Establishment crap. Clean house, Mr. President. Let them dare try to stop you, and we'll see who holds the real power in this country—We the People or The Swamp...
Don’t you know? The US Constitution gives veto power over who can be POTUS to any foreign country that passes a law extending its citizenship. It’s been explained right here on FR! /s
Trump’s true friends reside in the libertarian and conservative wings of the USA.
Balderdash. The base likes the President. The base knows what's important. Make no mistake: their loyalty lies with the President. And Sessions wasn't thrown under the bus. If he were, he'd already be gone. This President speaks his mind with incredible candor, and people had better get used to it.
Indeed, much of the base was similarly upset with AG Sessions' recusal—wherein he didn't even consult his own President beforehand! That was a yuge mistake...
I don’t think Ted Cruz is going to become Attorney General.
Listen to Sessions PRAISE Rosenstein as a “GOOD GUY”, and tell how he “really runs the whole DOJ”.
I am sitting here stunned. I think we’ve been had.
