Morning Joe memorialized this moment by first airing Sessions campaign announcement video which, quite literally, left host Joe Scarborough head in hand.

Look at Jeff Sessions, like Ted Cruz and these other Republicans and get insulted and trashed and their manhood challenged by Donald Trump, and they just they are quislings, Scarborough said. I feel like asking the question who are these men? the Morning Joe host asked, adding who would humiliate themselves in front of the president and the country like that?
Priorities USA Chair and Morning Joe guest Guy Cecil put as fine a point as one could imagine, saying that Sessions campaign spot looked like a hostage tape.
. If you are a political consultant and youre sitting down here and youre saying, Im going to launch my campaign for the Senate, Im going to reintroduce myself to the people of Alabama and Im going to do it standing in front of a white screen, looking as bad as I possibly could and basically all Im going to do is lay down before Donald Trump and just hope and pray that he doesnt stomp on me again, I mean, this is its pretty remarkable. Its a hostage. Hes sitting there begging, Cecil added.
