Donald
Trump is a lone-wold capitalist to such an extent that he is willing
to publicly attack a cabinet member; A.G. Sessions, without his
election would have been improbable. At a time in the campaign when
much of the nation including the Harvard Business Review believed
Trump was losing for all of his wild talk, Senator Sessions was one
of the very few credible supporters he had.
Being
a strong individual is most often a good thing, yet in criticizing
Sessions as an extension of his own defense from various attackers
and accusers the President has failed to discern friend from foe.
In
recusing himself A.G. Sessions put himself beyond creating an
impression of a conflict of interest. President Trump seems to want
to attack and fire people to end the Russia problem when the only
solid way is to let the Mueller investigation take its course and to
let the Congress approve his new F.B.I. Director in due time, with
due diligence, as if the government was working normally and no
urgency existed for the President to cover up pigeon drops and sex
trysts with Russian agents smeared in caviar.
Jeff
Sessions has tried to stand by the President and do what is right
regarding public interest in the probably specious Russia claims, yet
the President seems no teamwork anywhere that he should work with and
just enemies down the tube, like a bull with tunnel vision kicking
against the pricks.
The really hostile media love it as the President himself pours gasoline on the flames of those seeking to politically burn him at the stake.
