Why would anybody care about the next AG recusing themselves?

Well. I think Trump was wrong to speak publicly on it.

But, I think being pissed he recused himself is a fairly normal reaction.

Him recusing himself caused a SP and I think if we're being honest here, no one in politics has EVER liked a SP in theory........they only like it when it's directed at their political opponents.

The SP laws should be revised but unfortunately, the only time anyone is motivated to change it is after they were targeted by it which is kind of a bad look.

Democrats talked big about changing SP laws after Clinton. But, Republicans being politicians.......which by definition means short term thinkers......wanted no part of it.

No one in D.C. ever seems to learn.

Juicy,

Get real. The MSM and democrats WANT Sessions or any AG of Trump's recused. But this WAS under the guise of them wanting a special council. They got that so they can STFU. If you look at Trumps words in the interview he also seems pissed at McCabe. McCabe is an obvious Obama hold over. He needs to go. Obama would have fired him by now.

Sessions will do his job, which is to arrest the pedos. Thousands have been busted and the Trump administration is getting higher up the chain. Once Trump and Sessions gut the Democratic Party Sessions will retire

I'd be more happy if this didn't mean that corrupt statist frick Christie has a renewed chance.

They went two and a half months after the recusal before the special counsel was announced. It wasn't until the Comey firing, then Trump deviating from the official story and admitting that it was due to the investigation that a special counsel was appointed.

We can argue whether the counsel was the right decision, but to that blame solely on Sessions is a bit unfair. Furthermore, Trump's accusations that Sessions withheld his intent to recuse himself is completely unwarranted and doesn't make sense since the events that led to the recusal were unanticipated in much later.

Either way, I think Trump is really messing up this issue. He could use this to show that his administration is devoted to ethical behavior as evidenced by Sessions' recusal. He can even contrast that with the less ethical behavior of the previous administration. And he could make Sessions out to he a victim of the left's witch hunt. Instead he just throws him under the bus. It not only seems like strategic error, I can't understand why be would do that to one of his earliest and strongest supporters.

Better option, IMO: keep Sessions but ditch the war on drugs.

Not even Trump is dumb enough to have appointed Sessions unaware of his views on drugs. I get that this fantasy world where Trump is a secret libertarian being stymied by the Deep State is a comfortable escape hatch, but you really need to wake up.

Why? Sessions had to recuse himself, and testified that he knew he was going to recuse himself the moment he took the job.

Nobody cares about the AG recusing themselves if they have no connections to the ongoing investigations.

And Pam Bondi

What? He didn't recuse himself until after the omission of Russian contacts in the hearing came to light.
