Advice of Career Lawyers in the Justice Department. It wasnt just a whim of Jeff Sessions, this was a serious consideration went into this. Im sure Jeff Sessions didnt want to recuse himself but that was the advice he got. The president has been loudly lamenting sessions decision to do just that. Sessions pushing ban on his part saying essentially that the actions to have department of justice will not be improperly influenced by political considerations, thats the thing that he shot back, your thoughts on that . Yeah, i think the other thing was that was the beginning of the statement, at the end of the statement he mentioned that the people in his department and him are committed to advancing the rule of law and i think that was a very important thing too because hes basically suggesting there that donald trump is trying to get the Justice Department to do his bidding is trying to avoid the rule of law, rule of man rather than rule of law, i think Jeff Sessions had strong words there
midterms proves that they know it s politically a terrible idea and i can t figure out going into the midterms why donald trump would hint that he might fire attorney general afterwards because this midterms are going to be all about turnout and you don t want democrats to be enthused and excited to get out there but when donald trump says i might fire attorney general, he s playing right into the democratic hands because the leaders are going to say, hey, with knee toad win the senate, we need to get that senate because otherwise donald trump is going to fire jeff sessions. now to get a new attorney general and he ll have to get that person confirmed by the senate, so if they republicans have a minority or even a narrow majority, that gives the democrats a chance to keep out any new attorney general and so i don t really understand the strategy. i think it s very bad politically and just completely unwise, you are basically trying to get democrats to go to polls in november. certa
