Jeff Sessions just keeps making Donald Trump’s life worse

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

After Donald Trump finishes using someone and destroying them in the process, he discards them – and expects them to go away quietly. But Trump’s first Attorney General Jeff Sessions just doesn’t know when to quit. He already lost his Senate seat and destroyed his reputation by doing Trump’s bidding. Sessions is a monster and he deserves what he got. But now Sessions just won’t leave Trump alone.

After Donald Trump endorsed Jeff Sessions’ Republican primary opponent on Friday, and attacked Sessions’ reputation in the process, Sessions fired back in awkward fashion. Then Trump told off Sessions on Saturday. But then on Saturday night, Sessions fired back with this:

“I will never apologize for following the law and serving faithfully and with honor. Neither of us knew about the phony investigation into our campaign until after I was sworn in. As you will recall, I recommended firing Comey from the very beginning.”

Donald Trump is playing a really stupid game by taking Jeff Sessions’ bait and continuing this feud. Even though Sessions keeps calling the Mueller probe “phony,” the feud is serving as a reminder to everyone that Trump committed treason by plotting with Russia to rig the 2016 election in his favor. But as rightful winner Hillary Clinton once reminded us, Trump is someone who can be baited with a tweet.
