i would have thought jeff sessions would have been a great attorney general. he said and did all the right things as senator. but he was exposed quite quickly under trump. he is the face of the republican party to me. don't listen to what they say but what they do. most republicans on capitol hill are just like jeff sessions.

He "was exposed quite quickly?" Let's see what Jeff Sessions did as AG:

1. Reinstated mandatory sentencing for drug crimes, reversing Eric Holder.

2. Instead, he ordered prosecutors to seek maximum sentences.

3. Threatened "sanctuary cities" with losing federal funding if they continued to not comply with immigration law.

4. Was one of the key players in enforcing the family separations at the border.

5. Shrank his area of government by disbanding the National Committee on Forensic Science and imposed a hiring freeze on the DOJ Criminal Division.

Those are the notable things I am aware of that he did as AG. Which of those "exposed" him, and what did they "expose" him to be? Or did I miss something?

He also recused himself from the Russia investigations, which he was legally required to do.

Again, him following the law in that case "exposes" him as what? Someone who values the law more than Trump's desire for everyone he works with to be willing to throw themselves on a sword to try to protect him? He was "exposed" as not being willing to be the first Rudy Guilanni?

O.k.

Boy, that's some expose.

If that's what you mean by that, then you're right. Trump is radioactive and cancerous to those who try to support him and only a fool would do so at this point.
