Trump has Freudian Slip During Tirade Against Sessions

[orangecrush]

"Trump also spoke against his attorney general, Jeff Sessions, who became a regular target of the president's ire in public and private after recusing himself from the probe into Russian interference in the 2016 election. Sessions' command of the special counsel was ceded to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.

"The attorney general made a terrible mistake when he did this," Trump said of Sessions. Had Sessions let Trump know he was planning to recuse himself over failing to report contacts with a Russian ambassador in congressional testimony, "we would have used a — put a different attorney general in."

Asked if he would fire Mueller, Trump said the investigation is a "disgrace."

"Many people have said, 'You should fire him.' Again, they found nothing," Trump said of Mueller and his team."

1. Isn't that proof that he thinks obstruction is just fine? If he knew the AG was not

going to make the case against a Russian investigation he would not have hired that AG?

How is it OK for him to say that?

18. He slipped

and revealed his true intent.

2. Look if it is that easy...

for 45 to have these "slips" then I show up supplying banana peels to put in his way.

17. Good job!

3. Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean

The stupidity of Trump's comment is that when Trump nominated Sessions for AG, no one knew the Russia investigation would become a thing. How could Sessions have known that he would have to recuse himself from an investigation that had not yet begun? That is typical Trump idiocy.

To the point of your post, what do you think Trump was about to say? Use a what...?

4. 'Use' indicates intention to manipulate

It betrays his intention to use this toady to obstruct justice.

6. Right, got it

Of course, we know Trump obstructed justice. It's as obvious as the mole above my right eye!

He has to be taken down. If he survives, we're fucked.

16. Thank you!

[orangecrush]

10. my point

is it sounds like Trump was going to say "would have used a different person who would follow my orders".

[PJMcK]

13. Got it, thanks

Yeah, Trump wants sycophants to lick his boots.

The loser is going to experience something unique: failure.

19. Use a puppet

Like Putin uses him

[John Fante]

5. What fuckface really means to say is that he's pissed Sessions

won't kill the investigation. When he says "many people are saying I should fire him" he's really means "I want to fire him, but the Republicans won't cover for me if I do."

[orangecrush]

14. Exactly

7. There may be hope for us after all...

He's imploding. Someone will be fired, or missles fired at something, before wed. My prediction.

[orangecrush]

12. All valid predictions.

unnpredictable is his hallmark.

8. He's losin it..walls are closing in. Stormy reached in & took his brain.
