Attorney General Jeff Sessions said he would have quit the Trump campaign if there had been an “improper” or “illegal relationship” with Russia, in an effort to “impede or influence this campaign.”
“Sen. Risch asked you a question about appropriateness — ‘If you had known that there had been anything untoward with regard to Russia and the campaign would you have headed for the exits?’ Your response was ‘Maybe,‘” Sen. Martin Heinrich (D-NM) told Sessions during a hearing of the Senate Intelligence Committee. “Why wasn’t it a simple ‘Yes’?”
“Well, if there was an improper, illegal relationship in an effort to impede or influence this campaign, I absolutely would have departed,” Sessions said.
Fucking liar.
Lying is part of a politicians DNA. Doesn’t really matter what party. But some parties do it more than others. Belief in an upright and honorable politician is a fools errand.
“Well, if there was an improper, illegal relationship in an effort to
impede or influence this campaign, I absolutely would have departed,”
Sessions said.
…
How about if that influence had a positive outcome on trump’s campaign? Was that OK?
Ask him about Manafort and the Republican convention. Russia was influencing the Republican Party Platform, FFS! This wasn’t even a secret–it was right out in the open.
Sen. Heinrich nailed him down. In the initial question, Sessions said he “Probably would have been out the door…”
I say this as someone from the South: I am so fucking tired of this mush mouth who so murders the English language.
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAhhhhhh wuuuuuuuuuuud hayuv sayed sumtin’ 'bout…”
