You ALL loved Sessions when he was nominated, confirmed...
But NOW that Trump doesn't like him...
The irony: it's REAL.

It's the Emperor's clothes...that's all it is. Whatever the Emperor wants, they will trumpet. Whatever the Emperor doesn't want, they will trumpet. Eventually the Emperor will be done with trumpets too...and then what will they blow?

I thought that Sessions was a bad choice in the first place -- remember that there were 1,400 law professors and lawyers who wrote to protest his nomination but Trump expressed confidence in him and the appointment went through.
But I now wonder if he's made a strong enemy in Sessions. Although I loathe the man, he does wield political power and he could potentially make things more difficult for Trump.

Sad really. Recusing himself from the Russian investigation is the only honorable thing that I have ever witnessed Session do. And now he will have nothing, because he did an honorable thing in the Trump administration.

my opinion is something big is coming down the pipe that is about to work in trumps favor once again. The clinton shoots someone in the back comment is telling. my guess is sessions is trying to cover for some of his friends and trump wants to napalm the swamp. Interesting few weeks coming up to be sure. Ive heard the date July 27 from other boards. White House anon has usually been right on. well see though.

year sure. Tell some more fantasy
Did Trump say he would fire him?
Why dont you just read his statement and take it at that. Trump has never been one to mince words. He said he would not have given him the job if he new sessions would pull this hanky panky. There it is.
Instead you start bringing up all these hypotheticals as fact... What gowdy does...what Issa does... etc. etc.
The only thing I think you can take away from the statement is that Trump feels he overestimated sessions ability to handle the task at hand.

If Sessions is fired or is forced to resign, who will be so crazy as to fill the vacancy at this point in time?
My guess would be someone who's smart enough not to recuse himself purely because Democrats whined and cried at them to do so in total absence of any logical reason to actually recuse. Seriously, Sessions took the easy road when he had no legal or defensible reason to do so in recusing himself. Now look at the mess this has become, with the inmates (Mueller, Schiff, etc) running the asylum.
