Sessions ally: "What he is accomplishing is way too important to the country"

[Miles Archer]

“Sessions is totally pissed off about it,” one ally of the attorney general told the Daily Beast. “It’s beyond insane. It’s cruel and it’s insane and it’s stupid.”

Sessions’ allies also say, however, that the embattled attorney general has no plans to voluntarily resign — instead, he will call Trump’s bluff and essentially dare the president to fire him.

“He’s not going anywhere,” another Sessions ally told the publication. “He is not going to resign. What he is accomplishing is way too important to the country.”

Another White House official told the Daily Beast that Sessions is going to try to “ride out the storm,” as top White House political strategist Steve Bannon once did when he got on Trump’s bad side after getting into regular fights with Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner.

4. Sessions is very busy rolling back voting rights and civil rights

Sessions is trying to turn the clock back on voting rights, the war on drugs and asset forfeitures.

6. Here's another dilemma Trump puts us in.

Sessions is deplorable and despicable. He shouldn't be AG, much less a US senator.

Yet he really pisses Trump off with his recusal and seeming lack of royal fealty and subservience Trump seems to require.

Should he stay or should he go?

God, my head hurts.

8. Sessions would be replaced by someone equally odious,

so the fact that he wipes his ass with the Constitution every day doesn't really matter because his replacement would probably do most of the same repressive, racist and generally horrible things Sessions has been doing. So I think he shouldn't resign but should stay and force Trump to fire him to prove the Justice Department is not Trump's rubber stamp. I hope Sessions has the guts to stay put just for the sake of protecting the DoJ from Trump.
