Also I believe he is guilty of Treason against this country. His role in the 2016 Treason, and Conspiracy against the United States is substantial. As well as Obstruction of Justice in the cover up.
Yes I deliberately use the crimes of Treason, Conspiracy, and Obstruction of Justice.
I do not waste time nor mention the generic term collusion.

I wouldn't feel sad for Sessions of he got hit by a bus.

(115,659 posts)While Trump's intentional humiliation of him was despicable, Sessions had to know what kind of scumbag he was dealing with but he gladly took the job anyhow because it allowed him to fulfill his lifelong dream of disenfranchising and otherwise immiserating brown and black people. But everything Trump touches dies, and everyone who works for him comes away from the experience worse off, if not ruined. He's just another addition to the body count.

(1,975 posts)I think that an old boy southerner,( i.e. a racist) but still loyal to the good ol USA took a job from Trump not exactly knowing who Trump really was,(i.e. Someone who wanted loyalty to him and not the Constitution) and has finally just sold his soul to get out of this mess. . .
Im sorry I keep getting reality and then whats actually going on sometimes. . .
Separation
(1,975 posts)The Vacancy Reform Act bars Trumps installation of the unconfirmed Matt Whitaker to act as attorney general to control Robert Mueller unless Sessions truly resigned rather than being fired. A federal district court could be asked to see through the ruse and hold he was fired.

(4,723 posts)I'll nuance this. I think it is crap that Trump did this, I care about that move of his. But I don't feel a single twinge of sadness for the "victim." He can slither back under his rock in Alabama and not come out again, as far as I am concerned.
