So Trump & Sessions are on the outs, looks like. Who will be he next AG?

Trump criticized Sessions today for recusing himself from Russian investigation, saying if he'd known Sessions would do that, he would never have named him as AG. It was unfair to the President (yes, he spoke of himself in the third person again). "Very unfair."

So Sessions is no longer part of the inner circle. Looks like Sessions is out. Wonder who will be the next one?

Damn, the White House has a revolving door for its team. I can't keep track of all the ones who leave and the new ones who come (and the ones who won't accept a job).

After all, all the AG has to do is go on tv & defend Trump by saying what he's told to say. It's not complicated. You know, like health care.

When the one thing that offended me most was a quack dentist who thought the greatest president of my lifetime was born in Kenya. Again, simpler, happier times.

If any of my bosses publicly disrespected me the way that Trump has spoken of AG Sessions, I'd quit on the spot. Nobody treats me like that!

Fuck Trump.

All the trite sayings come to mind. If you wallow with pigs.... If you play with fire.....

To publicly humiliate him like that is horrible to do to someone. But Sessions surely knew what Trump was like and most certainly has witnessed Trump doing this to others. He got what he signed up for.

I've been trying to impersonate her, just to see if I can effectively copy her voice, and it wears my jaw out! There is nothing conservative in how she creates speech.
