ndrosenI disagree with many of Jefferson Beauregard Sessions’s views, and I am not greatly fond of the man; as I recall, I urged my senators not to confirm him as Attorney General, and I thought the only benefit of having him in that office was that it removed him from the Senate.
Nonetheless, he turned out to have one ounce of integrity, which is one ounce more than Donald Trump finds tolerable in a lackey, with the result that Trump now opposes his senatorial candidacy in Alabama, and hopes to see a thorough bootlicker as the Republican nominee. It’s not exactly that I want to see Sessions elected — if I were Alabaman, I’d vote Libertarian, or vote for Democrat Doug Jones — but I have to say that he doesn’t seem to be the worst possible Republican candidate, and has the honor of being despised by his former boss.
I believe the link should now be fixed.
