Whats revealing to me about this situation is the apparent reluctance of a half dozen key players to offer their resignation in spite of their clearly having lost the confidence of their boss the president.
If in the past one found themselves in that situation it was considered proper to voluntarily resign. These guys have death grips on their posts.
Absolutely true. Normally top cabinet members would resign if the POTUS that appointed them called the job they were doing a disgrace. Jeff Sessions, by contrast, just clings tenaciously to his dream job, insisting that he's hitting it out of the park. Hmm.
A popular theory on two other sites where I post is that Sessions is compromised and being blackmailed. I reject that utterly. I believe he's got psycological issues that didn't come to light in the Senate bc he was just one out of a hundred, and was surrounded by support staff. Now that he's in a position of singular authority and responsibility, it's pretty clear he's half a bubble off plumb.
