Bannon: Sessions as an 'excellent' AG, Trump 'wrong' about recusal
By Max Greenwood - 06/01/18 04:57 PM EDT
Former White House chief strategist Stephen Bannon said that President Trump "was wrong" to suggest that he should have chosen someone other than Jeff Sessions as his attorney general, holding Sessions up as an "excellent" pick.
In an interview with CNN's Fareed Zakaria set to air Sunday, Bannon said that Sessions' decision to recuse himself from the law enforcement investigation into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia "is not even an issue," and that Trump should not dwell on the matter.
"I think the president was wrong," Bannon said. "I think if you look at what Jeff Sessions has done on immigration on migration and all the key issues at the Justice Department, I think that Sessions has personally done an excellent job."
