Read the article. It makes an interesting case that there are fundamental ethical and legal “defects” inherent in Muller’s witch hunt that are being exposed in his obsessive pursuit to get Trump on something. However, I think the premise that Sessions is engineering an elaborate scheme to turn people inside DOJ is wishful thinking. This kind of speculation is not supported by any known facts. In fact, Trump’s increasing frustration with Sessions is all too well known.
I hate to be the wet blanket on this but if Sessions was actually doing something, don’t you think by now some of it would have leaked out of an agency whose management is filled with people of dubious integrity, loyalty, and political motivation? Its a stretch to believe that Sleepy Sessions is any different than the people who supposedly work under him. He has abdicated his responsibilities to Rosenweasel, who is the defacto AG.
That said, there is one bright spot that people seem to be forgetting: the upcoming Horowitz testimony and release of his report this month. Though not expecting lots of bombshells, I predict it will put the anti-Trump brigade on the defensive for at least a few days. There should be enough revelations in it to fuel some great Trump tweets and provide fodder for Rudy’s media offensive.
I thought the article presented an interesting view how of the President thinks when presented with a bad deal (Mueller and the Special Counsel).
I was on the fence about Sessions because he did not tell the President he intended to recuse himself. He wanted the AG job so much that he put his personal ambition above the country’s need for an ethical Justice dept.
I cannot support him anymore and if he had any integrity, he would close down the witch hunt, fire Rosenweasel ( great name for him by the way)and then resign himself.
I am thinking Rudy is there now because he might be the only one the President can trust at this point.
