POTUS SLAMS SESSIONS AGAIN: He Endorsed Me Because of Big Crowds, Not Loyalty
Gateway Pundit ^ | 07/25/2017 | Joshua CaplanĀ 

Posted on 07/25/2017 1:38:22 PM PDT by Rusty0604

In a brief interview with the Wall Street Journal, President Trump ripped into Attorney General Sessions once again. This time, the President cut even deeper, suggesting Sessions endorsed him because of Trump’s success as a candidate, not out of loyalty.

President Donald Trump  expressed his disappointment in Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Tuesday and questioned the importance of Mr. Sessions’s early endorsement of Mr. Trump’s candidacy, but the president declined to say whether he planned to fire him.

“It’s not like a great loyal thing about the endorsement,” Mr. Trump said in an interview with The Wall Street Journal. “I’m very disappointed in Jeff Sessions.”

While the President is still mum on his plans concerning Sessions, Scaramucci told NBC News a decision on the AG’s future will be made ‘shortly.’

You don't know the substance of my disagreement with your posts, making that remark a cheap and uncalled for shot.

It doesnt matter. Mueller is allowed to follow the trails..and there are a lot of known money laundering entities and people surrounding the parties

It will be a coup if they can get manafort to flip.

I dont understand how you cannot know about flipping people..tricks of the trade..and how long it takes to do a money laundering Investigation ..unless you were just a file clerk at that law firm.

If a lawyer told Trump the Dems were agitating for recusal, why would Trump take that seriously? The Democrats have been barking moonbat crazy since Trump won. They say Trump should be impeached for talking to the Boy Scouts. Do you get the drift?

I asked you why, if Sessions took the insane Leftists seriously, he would not have communicated that directly to his boss. You failed to answer.

Mueller is not a holdover, nor is the one who placed him in his position. That is where the sword is.

So you’re clueless about Manafort’s relationship with Trump.

Doesn’t surprise me.

In fairness, your post sounded like you were telling me you don't agree with the majority of what I write, period, not just the one post, because of the way you worded it. I took it as a jab, and thus I interpreted it as evidence of an emotional judgment at play. So I challenged you with this post in hopes of getting the "substance of the disagreement."

“Jeff Session had no idea the campaign was an issue until the confirmation hearing.”

That is certainly not true. The election hoax narrative started soon after the election. And Comey said he knew that Sessions would recuse himself before he was confirmed.
Trump did not.

Even though Trump said he didn’t want to go after Hillary? We don’t even know what they are investigating.

That is simply not true. Session was not expecting the Russian connection at the confirmation hearing at all. Al Franken hit him with it to try and get a sound bite that could be used against Sessions or President Trump. It was discussed extensively at the time and can be confirmed in the transcripts.

There are two different stories here related to the 2016 campaign. The more prominent one -- which is the fake one -- involves "Russian interference" and "collusion with the Trump campaign." The one that doesn't get much attention -- which is the real one -- involves Hillary Clinton's campaign and related dealings with the Clinton Foundation ... which might also include Russian influence, too.

Nobody seems to remember this, but it's the second one that originally prompted Sessions to tell the U.S. Senators (in his confirmation hearing) that he'd recuse himself from any investigation related to the campaign.

And he didn't recuse himself to cover his ass or protect himself against charges of ethical misconduct, either. He recused himself because a failure to do so would jeopardize any criminal case that might arise out of such an investigation.

P.S. -- That last point is the reason why Rudy Giuliani has publicly stated that he fully supported Sessions' decision to recuse himself.

Not going to argue... it may all be moot anyway..

Tucker and Demint talking... if Sessions goes, the one who would be in charge does not like Trump and if Sessions goes, congress will not vote to let Trump have someone in who backs Trump.. so the one who does not like Trump would be the acting AG for too long and maybe indefinitely. They hope the 2 men can work this out.. Sessions gets the message and acts accordingly.

It doesn’t matter. They are going after his family. He feels helpless to stop what they are doing to Don Jr and Jared. He blames Sessions for stepping aside and letting Rosenstein appoint the SC. Sessions needs to sit down with the president and talk this out. He has brought some of this on himself by stepping out of the picture. He needs to be pursuing the Ukrainian thing and letting Trump know what is going on with Alan brothers.

Doesn’t make any difference to me.

If I could tell Jeff Sessions something, I’d say he’s a piss poor AG, and he should resign in shame for failure to do anything.

Dude sucks, and I don’t care how he hears it.

And the same pretty much goes for the rest of the stinking GOP.

Then he should have withdrawn his name. He brought an absolute world of venom down on Trump with his recusal. Some of these top legal experts said it was unnecessary. Mueller is being used to provoke a coup against Trump. Whatever dynamics in involved with Sessions is inconsequential up against that.

Trump needs to take a cue from Reagan and go to the public and talk man to country... from his heart... and no pity party.. just explain what is going on .. If Trump has ever explained to everyone on TV what the media is doing and why congress is so useless.. I missed it. If he has not, it would help to give a speech/talk ... honesty and truth is hard to come by .. it might help. As it is now, the media is feeding the lies every day all day for months... the lesser learned believe it if it’s said that many times.

I dare say a lot of people do not know why the media has taken on rusha rusha... it needs to be told that there is nothing there, never has been .. the media has an agenda.. to thwart the will of the voters and make this a country like all others that have failed because there were no guidelines to stop them. We have the constitution and it’s being ignored... it’s being destroyed. The younger generation, if they go to schools that have teachers/professors who hate the US.. they do not know much about why, when or where.
