Former Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who resigned after months of public lambasting by President Trump, told students at Amherst College in Massachusetts on Wednesday that he had the “greatest confidence” in special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation.
“It was complete and (thorough), some may have said it was extensive,” Sessions said, while refusing to talk specifics of the report, which was released last week.
“I have the greatest confidence in the integrity of the system. The process that was initiated was carried forth vigorously and with integrity,” he continued. “I think it deserves respect and I think it is about time to accept the results and let’s get on with the business of America.”
Sessions’ praise of Mueller and the integrity of the probe comes in stark contrast with with President Trump’s nearly manic daily attacks on Mueller’s team of investigators and the FBI’s initial rationale for launching the investigation.
Sucking up won’t help you once the unredacted report is finally released, Keebler.
Not so sure about that Sessions:
IOW, because the president cannot be indicted of any crime, we will not find he committed any crime regardless of how strong the evidence is. If Trump went on tape and admitted obstruction, Mueller could not find that he committed a crime of obstruction.
Suggested headline: Another Trump Detractor/Resistance!
Seriously, not gonna help. GOP is now a toxic system that people have to escape. Staying there while taking jabs at Trump is hypocritical. The media better stop painting these people in some heroic light.
That ought to set off a TweetStorm.
Translation:
I can only imagine after the way Trump repeatedly humiliated Jeff Sessions, he wouldn’t mind seeing Trump behind bars. I suspect many of Trump’s former staffers feel the same way.
