Trump says Jeff Sessions 'never took control of the Justice Department'
Source: CNN
President Donald Trump again lambasted his attorney general as woefully ineffective during an interview aired on Thursday.
"I put in an attorney general who never took control of the Justice Department. Jeff Sessions, never took control of the Justice Department. It's sort of an incredible thing," Trump said on Fox News, bemoaning Sessions' failure to investigate a myriad of perceived injustices against Trump and his campaign.
He pinpointed Sessions' decision to recuse himself from the Russia investigation -- a longtime sore spot for the President -- as an act of deep disloyalty.
"It's a very, very sad day. Jeff Sessions recused himself, which he shouldn't have done or he should have told me," he said. "Even my enemies say that Jeff Sessions should have told you that he was going to recuse himself and then you wouldn't have put him in."

(10,029 posts)I would like to see a list of his perceived enemies and friends.
It appears anyone that criticizes or disagrees with him, he labels an enemy and feels the need to destroy.
Trump sees no difference between an opponent/rival and an enemy. That is extremely dangerous for someone in power.

(22,845 posts)He thought once he got elected he was in charge, and if he put his people in charge of the departments, he'd have absolute power over the government. Like a mafia boss. Wrong.
