Story highlights
Remember that one of the cardinal rules of Trumpism is that you never ever apologize or concede anything
The truth, of course, is that a large chunk of Trump's Russia problems are his own fault
Washington (CNN)Attorney General Jeff Sessions was once Donald Trump's truest, most loyal friend -- the first major backer of the billionaire's presidential campaign and a major ally for his get-tough policies on immigration.
No more.
According to CNN reporting, Sessions threatened to quit his post amid repeated clashes with Trump, who has grown increasingly unhappy with the performance of his attorney general.
Why? It's simple: Sessions admitted he did something wrong. He made a concession that, in Trump's mind, is the root of many of the Russia-related problems he is now dealing with.
