He's attacking his own loyal lackey yet again. This is just bizarre.

Why didn't A.G. Sessions replace Acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe, a Comey friend who was in charge of Clinton investigation but got....

...big dollars ($700,000) for his wife's political run from Hillary Clinton and her representatives. Drain the Swamp!

In response, Jeff Sessions will shout out in self-righteous indignation: "I'm not quitting, because you're going to fire me! So there!"

1. This guy is the original loon bully. he's pure psychopath.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

2. With friends like Trump, who needs enemies? nt

[maxsolomon]

22. no he is not. don't let him off that easy

he is a malignant narcissist trashing everyone and everything so he looks clean in comparison. he's pushing the nation into fascism.

it's not "loony". it's deliberate.

[EllieBC]

3. GOP senator on CNN just said Sessions deserves better.

And something about the president needs to remember that the AG is not his personal attorney.

Please please please let this be the beginning of his own party turning on him

[maxsolomon]

23. Its not the beginning

until/if they lose power in 2018, they're not throwing him over. even when Sessions/Rosenstein/Mueller get fired.

[underpants]

4. How's your staffing going there Snowflake?

[maxsolomon]

24. When he gets Alfa Bank's lawyer in the DoJ

as head of the Criminal Division, it will be going swimmingly.

[joeybee12]

5. I'm a cynic. I think attacking Sessions is all for show

Come on, he's not going to find a bigger racist for AG and the Orange Turd knows it

[Tommy_Carcetti]

6. Possibly. I don't know why neither one is actually doing anything.

Trump's not actually firing Sessions, and Sessions has expressed no indication to quit. And I don't think either is acting on any sort of higher principle.

As I mentioned yesterday, it's George Costanza at Play Now Sports come to life:

[geek tragedy]

15. he wants Sessions to quit so he can kill the Russia investigation, nt

[dalton99a]

28. It is possible

[joeybee12]

31. Actually the one person I'd like sessions to get the better of is the unelected turd. Nt

[leftyladyfrommo]

7. I think his own party is turning on him.

How could they not? It was one thing when he was making it easier for them to get their agenda going. But these absurd personal attacks are not being taken lightly.

And why would anyone in their right mind work for thus crazy lunatic?

[RKP5637]

11. I fear some (many?) of them are the same as Trump. He just speaks for them. n/t

[NightWatcher]

8. Oh, so he's laying the groundwork to fire all of them when Senate goes on recess?

He's going to reap one hell of a whirlwind.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

12. I heard Democrats are going to try to circumvent any attempt for him to do that....

....by nominally keeping the Senate in session during the recess.

I hope it works.

[RKP5637]

9. Professional evaluations of his mental health can now be published. It will be interesting when a

major publication is released by members of the American Psychoanalytic Association. We are in such dangerous times with this guy at the help and his authoritarian lust!

[BainsBane]

10. Message to Trump appointees

You better watch your backs because Trump will turn on you too.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

13. Your lack of a soul will not save you in the face of Donald Trump. nt

[RKP5637]

14. They don't seem to get it, nor do his ludicrous supporters. They just can't seem

to comprehend sociopathic rule.

[BannonsLiver]

17. They like it. A lot.

American deplorables would have made great Nazis.

[RKP5637]

18. Brownshits in waiting! n/t

[onethatcares]

16. they're playing

a professional wrasslin skit.

watch out for Andre the Giant to jump in the ring.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

19. Even so, what's the ending?

Does Jeff Sessions dutifully step aside, allowing Donald the Great to move on to fight against Mueller the Terrible?

Or do they just decide to stop and act as nothing happened? I mean, they are on the same exact page on everything else.

It's got to have some sort of ending, right?

[onethatcares]

21. Our country

gets served to the richie riches so they can have huge estates, all the money, and indentured servants.

that's my end game for them.

[Renew Deal]

20. It's a crime in progress.

It is part of the coverup.

[oasis]

25. Hang on and get that government check Jeff, you got no where to go.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

26. And in doing so he's pissing off a lot of GOPers.

He wants Sessions to quit so he won't be accused of obstruction of justice (which is exactly what he'd be doing, just like when he fired Comey). If Sessions quits, he can just say, "Hey, he quit - his decision" and he's off the hook, or so he thinks.

But Sessions has a lot of friends in the Senate. Yes, Sessions is awful and he's doing some very bad things to the DoJ, but Trump can't afford to piss off those GOP senators off at this point.

[Not Ruth]

27. No one cares for Sessions, be it Dems, GOP, progressives, resistance, Trump, no one

Good riddance

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

30. Actually, Sessions has a lot of friends and support among GOPers,

especially in the Senate. I don't think Trump understands how much damage he's doing to his own support in his own party.

[Cary]

29. Drain the swamp is the wrong analogy for #fakepresident

[link:|

[MiddleClass]

32. Just like a cornered rat. Lashing out at everybody

Boy is he feeling the heat, I hope he feels like circling the drain.

I wish I knew what's coming down the pipe.

[moondust]

33. Whipping boy?
