Showing what a great guy he is, Donald Trump blasted his attorney general for recusing himself on matters dealing with Russia:
“Jeff Sessions takes the job, gets into the job, recuses himself, which frankly I think is very unfair to the president,” he added. “How do you take a job and then recuse yourself? If he would have recused himself before the job, I would have said, ‘Thanks, Jeff, but I’m not going to take you.’ It’s extremely unfair — and that’s a mild word — to the president.”Trump is blaming Sessions for problems Trump himself created: why didn't Trump and his army of lawyers ask Sessions about his contacts with Russia before they nominated him? I'm sure they knew Sessions had talked to the Russians, and they didn't care. Because they never thought it was a problem. They still don't. This is all on Trump.
Trump's son, son-in-law and campaign manager were the ones who met with a Russian lawyer who represented a Russian charged with money laundering, a Russian spy and a representative for a Russian oligarch close to Putin. The same oligarch Trump was in bed with at the Miss Universe contest in Moscow.
Trump is the one who proudly stated on national television that he fired James Comey because of the Russia thing: he literally confessed to Lester Holt that he was obstructing the Russia investigation. In this latest interview Trump also accused Comey of using the Golden Shower dossier as some kind of leverage over the president. This is patent nonsense: the FBI got the dossier more than eight months ago and its contents were widely known to the public before the election, as this article from Oct. 31, 2016, shows.
Trump is the one held a private meeting attended only by Putin, Trump and Putin's translator. Doesn't Trump understand how incredibly bad this makes him look? It looks like he's receiving instructions from his KGB handler, getting rid of his translator so that there are no American witnesses.
Trump has no record of what was said (I'm sure Putin does -- it's one more bit of leverage over Trump), but Trump thinks they talked about adoption. "Adoption" being Russian code for removing sanctions on wealthy oligarchs who want to launder money in the United States through Trump real estate "investments."
This is all on Trump. If he hadn't fired Comey there wouldn't be a special investigator because there wouldn't be an investigation into his obstruction of justice. If Trump hadn't constantly sucked up to Putin and Russia for the last 30 years he wouldn't be in this predicament. If Trump had been an honest man and had taught his son ethical and moral behavior, Junior would have called the FBI when he got an email from a sketchy Brit with the subject line "Russia - Clinton - private and confidential," instead of taking the meeting and then announcing to the world that he had tried to collude with the Russians to win the election for his dad.
Trump's dishonesty, greed and lies are the cause of his problems. Not Jeff Sessions.
Republicans, take note of the kind of loyalty Donald Trump has to the Republican Party: Trump is throwing Sessions under the bus. Trump tried to blackmail fellow Republicans into supporting the suckiest health care bill ever conceived, a bill that even most Republican voters hate, by threatening to primary them. Trump ran attack ads against a fellow Republican, Senator Dean Heller of Nevada to force him to support the bill. Trump even accused Ted Cruz's dad of assassinating Kennedy.
Trump's crass behavior, sexual harassment, lies, backstabbing and disloyalty have been known this for years. Yet Republicans still support this turkey? Why would anyone ever make any kind of deal with this guy, or even more incredibly, why would anyone ever agree to work for this jerk?
When are Republicans going to realize that Trump is lower than the brown scum you find on the inside of a toilet in a crack house?
