Trump can't fire Sessions

Without a huge backlash. So he is humiliating him publicly to make him quit. What else can you do when your boss tells everyone he is sorry he hired you? Trump wants an AG that will run interference for him and Sessions can't.

I think Trump went into the interview looking to force Sessions out.

My guess of how the Veselnitskaya meeting went...

So through the Agalorovs and Goldstone, whom Donnie Jr. apparently trusts, a meeting is set up with this Russian “Crown attorney.” The Russians, unlike Junior, know what they are doing, so they promise dirt on Hillary Clinton without going into detail that they really have emails, bunches of emails from Podesta, the DNC, and plan to use the internet to wreak havoc on the electorate. The Russians need to take charge of the campaign, and they want only the inner circle to attend, and not lower level staffers, so they play up the “dirt on Hillary,” highly confidential and sensitive, aspect to get them in the meeting. Trump being the amateur he is, gets excited and starts announcing that he is going to give a “major speech” before he even knows what that dirt will be.

So a hard-nosed woman lawyer (picked because she is a woman - psychology, specifically humiliation, is important) shows up. Now they may not know at this point how these Trump insiders would react to Guccifer2.0 and Wikileaks and fake news as a strategy. Who knows, they may even go to authorities, although intelligence tells them this is unlikely. The Russians know they have to set the table first. How would they set that table?

A little video viewing and everything from there changes… the Russians were now in control.
