If you ever needed any more of who’s side Mr. Magoo Jeff Sessions is on, look no future than his threat to quit if snake Rod Rosenstein was fired by Trump. That would work out great if Trump did it though. Dumping Rosenstein would get rid of Sessions too? It’s all win-win. Two worthless deep state hacks, one firing.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions warned the White House recently that he could resign if President Trump were to fire Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.
The Washington Post reported Friday that Sessions told White House counsel Don McGahn in a phone call last weekend that he could leave the Justice Department in the event of Rosenstein’s ouster.
The phone call came amid a series of attacks on Rosenstein and special counsel Robert Mueller by Trump, following the FBI raid of the home and office of his personal attorney Michael Cohen.
His attacks have led to speculation that Trump may fire Rosenstein or Mueller.
Rosenstein oversees the law enforcement investigation into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. Mueller is carrying out that probe.
In the phone call with McGahn, Sessions also asked for details of a meeting between Trump and Rosenstein that took place on April 12, and was reportedly relieved when he was told that the encounter was cordial, according to the Post.
One person familiar with the phone call told the Post that Sessions did not intend to threaten his resignation, but simply wanted to express his concern that Rosenstein’s ouster would put him in a difficult position.
Aww. Poor Mr. Magoo. He would be put in a “difficult sitaution.” Dude has done absolutely nothing since becoming AG last year anyway aside from his anti-pot crusades. Sessions wouldn’t know difficult if it came up and bit him.
