why has no one asked the prez this question

Mr president, give us your legal rationale as to why Jeff Sessions has recused himself. An actual legal justification, not just because you think he should have, or that is was unfair to you, whatever the fuck that means.

they'd just get the "i have not had the chance to talk with the president about that. I'll get back to you on that even though I won't, really" reply.

It's the new version of "the president's tweet speaks for itself" line from her predecessor.

At least, that was the last formal press conference he held. There have been some limited availabilities and shouted questions as he scurries to the safety of the chopper or the White House back door, but February was the last time he stood for a full press conference.

regarding Hillary? Do you think someone may have imparted to him that his criticism could be the basis for impeachment?
