Should we be encouraging Sessions to hang in there,

[Ilsa]

and not let trump push him to resign? The longer he stays in, the more the Twitler stays aggravated. Or should we encourage a blow-up, via firing and the AG recess appointment to fire Mueller? Would congress finally act to remove the crazy one?

1. I'd encourage the gentlemen to settle it with a duel

and spare us the drama

[Motley13]

9. hope they are both perfect shots

[avebury]

2. Yes - if for no other reason that it will royally piss of Trump. nt

[Thomas Hurt]

3. Yes, just one more thing that shows that Trump is obstructing justice.

[DefenseLawyer]

4. Sessions is doing a lot of terrible things

Attacking voting rights, aiding voter suppression efforts, gutting the Civil Rights Division, private prisons, mass incarceration, revamped drug war, increased civil forfeiture, etc. He has the ability to do as much or more actual harm as anyone in the Administration.

[Voltaire2]

5. nope. I'm hoping for total chaos from Twitler.

Sessions is a horrible person. No need to support him.

[Ilsa]

7. It would be fake support.

I'm looking forward to him getting fired. Little weasel.

[Voltaire2]

8. One thing we should have learned by now from the Republicans: oppose everything they do.

[Motley13]

6. yes, as much as I despise him, he has recused himself

just think of who we would get in his place.
Sessions has buddies in the repug senate, so if he is fired, that might light a fire under their asses.
Guess Sessions has learned what loyalty gets you.
LOSER 45 is like a cornered rat, lashing out at everyone.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

10. Yes. Sessions is awful but regardless whether he resigns or is fired,

he'd be replaced by the likes of Giuliani or Ted Cruz or some other GOP orc, so his departure would not result in an improvement to the DoJ. However, if he sticks it out and forces Trump to fire him it would be that much more obvious that Trump is trying to torpedo the Mueller investigation. Sessions hasn't done anything wrong in respect to recusing himself (he reallyh ad to do that), so Trump really has no excuse at all for firing him. Legally he can fire an AG for any reason at all, but he'd really be bringing a shitstorm onto himself - not only because he'd be firing him for doing the right thing, but because it would be further proof that he has no loyalty to anyone and that anybody who works for him runs the risk of being thrown under the bus at any time.

[angstlessk]

11. This standoff is like 6 of one 1/2 dozen of another?

[Thrill]

12. No hes as evil as they come

He shouldn't be allowed to hold that position in the first place.

[awesomerwb1]

13. And leave him in a position to do more

damage to immigrants?

No thanks.

[MiddleClass]

14. Force Don the con to fire, Rosenstein should do the same, and then see if Republicans act

Then campaign to throw the bums out, regain Congress, impeachment
