-- I don't trust sessions at all.. did at first and he turned out to be a red herring.. he could have saved all this with mueller, from happening. He did nothing ... --

On that point, one either finds his recusal well taken, or not. That is a question of first principle.

Trump had an army aligned against him, and this army had as its main weapon, the well-propagated myth of "Russian collusion" and similar. There is no way this army, which includes all of the prime media and powerful forces in CIA, FBI, DOJ, State, etc., was going to stand down.

Circumstances, maybe orchestrated by Trump or his planners, directed their advance to run primarily through through the Mueller canyon. I think in hindsight, we will see allowing (maybe choosing) a Special Counsel was not unwise. There was going to be pain (to Trump) no matter what.

If Sessions was unprincipled, and cut Mueller off, who knows where this army deploys - it might even vanish back into the shadows, to do damage in less predictable ways. Plus, by acting in an unprincipled way, Sessions damages himself as well as the institution he is head of.

I personally don't believe the DOJ, FBI, Courts and other institutions are principled. I see them as failed. But correcting that happens one of two ways. Burn them down and rout the inhabitants, or the institutions see the light and correct. Sessions is doing as much as he can, I truly believe, to follow that second path.

I am a Trump supporter for several reasons. One of them is ..he is a fighter. The GOP has not learned how to do that and I am tired of them letting the dems have their way. We have a few in the GOP who are helping Trump.. the rest are still AWOL.

I just see sessions as one who won’t fight.. he has let Trump take all the attacks with not even a comment. mueller is way past what the constitution and our laws allow.. and he is still going. Our country looks like we are in trouble.. while Trump is trying to raise our position back to greatness.

The back up Trump needs has been absent.. his own party won’t support him.. and while the dems are nothing but trouble.. they vote together and speak the same rhetoric..
I want the GOP to condemn the media, to back Trump. No matter what anyone thinks of him personally.. he is doing what he said he would do.. he is making progress like no other President, in just a year and half. Where is the back up of the Republican party!! Where is sessions in any support of this man we call President of the United States!
