Discussion: Axios Tweaks Glowing Description Of Jeff Sessions As 'Honorable Person'

“Jeff Sessions prides himself on being an honorable person.”

It really is semantics… and I can’t argue with the edit.

But to put the whole controversy in perspective remember that Simon Cameron, one of the founding members of the Republican Party and Lincoln’s first (and failed) Secretary of War once defined an honest politician as:

one who, when he is bought, will stay bought

Come to think of it… that might be what Trump is upset about

He’s currently shooting for the merit badge for enduring humiliation.

You will recall that he gave up an absolutely secure Senate seat to get the AG position. If he gives that up, he will have traded away a position of high authority and a loud public position for nothing. That’s not what a rational person would do.

Sessions is the best friend the AMERICAN working person has ever had in Washington. Unlike Pelosi and the Scumocrats, he actually has stood up for working men and women against the tidal wave of visa workers, illegals, and the huge numbers of asylum-seeking temporary workers. He wants to continue his work, and will.

If Trump removes him, Trump will not win a second term. Period. Because a ton of Trump supporters like Sessions.

Axios is the reborn version of Politico when Mike Allen and Jim VanderHei took their schlock reporting to another venue to start all over. The good thing is that Politico got infinitely better, and Axios became what Politico used to be (a lot of partisan bullshit)…Sadly, they got instant notoriety without even doing much to begin with. We now know they were barely deserving of the attention like other publications, unless they proved themselves first. But that didn’t happen. Like I say, they got instant attention from places like MSNBC simply by changing their name and moving on…

Just my opinion.

Be Smart: Trump knows that ripping babies away from their mothers and hippies away from their doobies are winning issues in 2020.

We have to suffer 5 minutes of their bullshit every morning at the end of MJ First look before Morning Joe . The segments with Mike Allen and his spittle flecked delivery are intolerable. Seriously ten years and he still can’t read a fucking teleprompter without stuttering like a third grader

Can you point to the give away where this is sarcasm? The Donald might be in jail before the 2020 primaries. Even if he runs again, the Dems could run a dead squirrel and win.
