I started to reply to you and changed my mind and missed updating the "reply to" line? Looking awful desperate to shut somebody up. U mad bro?
The entire line of questioning dealt with the campaign, which sessions was never a part of.
Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions will lead Republican presidential front runner Donald Trump's newly formed National Security Advisory Committee, the campaign announced tonight.
Trump's team of foreign policy advisers, led by Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions, consists of counter-terrorism expert Walid Phares, energy consultant George Papadopoulos, former Defense Department inspector general Joe Schmitz, managing partner of Global Energy Capital Carter Page and former Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg. Trump spokeswoman Hope Hicks confirmed the names to CNN.
"And I have quite a few more," Trump told the Post's editorial board, without offering details. "But that's a group of some of the people that we are dealing with. We have many other people in different aspects of what we do. But that's pretty representative group."
Top Trump foreign policy adviser Sen. Jeff Sessions says Republican nominee Donald Trump's campaign is "not over," and criticized media coverage claiming his campaign is in trouble.

Care to revise your position?
Also an advisor is not the same thing as a surrogate. A surrogate is someone who officially speaks for another person in an official capacity. Kellyann Conway for example.
The part you seem to not be understanding, and most likely intentionally ignoring, is Sessions had no contacts with the Russians as a "surrogate" for the Trump campaign.

The OP is a gross distortion.
He is scheduled to testify before the Senate Intelligence Committee, because that is a more appropriate venue to answer these questions.
Quote for truth.
Not okay OP. Using bait titles and fake news to manipulate ATS members. Pathetic.
Maybe OP is auditioning for position at CNN or MSNBC?
A surrogate is someone who speaks officially on behalf of someone else. The fact you dont understand that is your problem and not mine.
The line of question was in regards to the campaign, which sessions rightfully states he had no contact with the russians during the campaign in that capacity.
Next time try and refute my argument with facts instead of spin. Its to obvious when you rely on already debunked false claims.
So we come back to the fact that Sessions had no meetings with Russians in relation to his work with the Trump campaign, which is what he was referring to.
Regardless of all the BS being hurled at everyone in Trump's organisation, the fact remains that Sessions will be testifying on Tuesday under oath to the Senate Intelligence Committee. I am sure he will dismiss the BS questions then too.

Sessions is going under oath. That is plenty.
I'm sorry, my memory is a little hazy...why is it again that Jeff Sessions recused himself?

Maybe you can explain - Why is it Loretta Lynch and James Comey didnt recuse themselves for the Clinton investigation?
