>>Why does Sessions have such a problem being a supportive Attorney General?
*******************************************************
Because, just like any other Deep State terrorist, he claims the “moral high ground”.

Even if millions of citizens launched a huge mockery campaign, he will never be moved. That’s his mentality.

It’s going to take some divine intervention, hopefully before the SHTF October surprise, whatever that will be.

Yes they were.

>>That means he would have AG Rosenstein.

Arrest him, too. Can POTUS can appoint patriot replacements during this year’s recess?

What does Jeff think he is doing by refusing to remove Rosenstein...Sessions is PLAYING POLITICS....I think Jeff Sessions is a plant for the Deep State or he is being blackmailed into doing precious little to help President Trump.

Upon the initial explosion....Apollo 13’s flight director Gene Kranz famously calmed down his crew by saying; “let’s find out what WORKS on the ship first”.

We need to figure out what power we DO hold...if any.

“If Sessions was really part of the problem his ass would have been fired already.”

Timing is everything. If Trump fired him now, the entire deep state, Dems and RINOs would scream obstruction of justice and prolong the attacks. I think Trump knows this will eventually play out and doesn’t want to give them anything to extend what is already going on.

Sessions: “Rule number one is that all powerful Democrats are to be left alone. No hard questions, no associating them with events that might carry a negative connotation and definitely no investigating them for any of their myriad crimes.”

Feckless turdbucket.

I will guess that it will come down to POTUS’s loyal military generals to carry out the huge restoration process.

IMO he was at first a spy on the campaign who then got weaseled into the AG job with the help of other deep staters. He’s undermined the administration beginning with the recusal and has been instrumental in covering up the coup.

If he wanted to keep the DOJ above politics why didn't he make Rosenweasle recuse himself from the Russia nonsense? If he wanted to keep politics out of the DOJ why hasn't he arrested the law breakers involved in this conspiracy to overturn an election? The only thing I see is president Trump being attacked by the same liars who swept Hillary's crimes under the rug. What about those politics jeff?

The moment Sessions recused himself I knew he had been co-opted. There was no way to fire him after that, anyway, because his recusal, itself, would make his firing “political.” The fact that he didn’t tell Trump and just did it is the tip-off that he’s playing for team Deep State. No wonder Trump was irate. Could you imagine Eric Holder wiping his butt without consulting Obama first? Trump has to win the election in November to be able to fire the little weasel, otherwise the dems and the RINOs will try to impeach him before the election. The scumbag side of the republican party has really tipped its hand this time.

Same as it was when Trump first threw his hat in the ring...

One extraordinary patriotic man and his band of deplorables against a 4 trillion dollar corrupt stasi state, corrupt courts, both parties and the fakestream media

A million armed citizens on the mall would send most of these people back to their rumpus rooms to watch My Little Pony reruns and eat guacamole from their official Jeb Bush guac bowls.

I LIKE your thinking!

What if ... what if Sessions is trying to get fired? There are two sides of a coin here that we all see : 1) This is not the same firebrand Sessions of years past; he appears to be asleep at the wheel. And, 2) there is nothing stopping Trump from firing Sessions if he genuinely feels Sessions has negative value; despite a history of firing folks Trump has held back.

What if Sessions is "trapped" between the cabal threatening to expose dirt on him, and Trump threatening to expose dirt on him? What does he do? Duck his head, drag his feet, cheese off the public, and wait until an action of no-confidence is demanded which gives him a safe exit strategy?

Amen. Trump needs all the prayers he can get.
He is one against thousands of DC Swamp Rats.
