No, it’s a monumental decision with implications across the board. Sessions could make that decision on his own, but he owed his boss the minimal courtesy of an advance notice.
We never believed Obama when he said the first he heard of something was on the news. The first Trump hears of something this major *shouldn’t* be on the news.
Aside from that it's decency and grace. DJT represents because we put him in office. His childish BS is not how I wish to be represented, because it is unworthy for a conservative to act like a liberal.
