i don't like him a lot, but i respect him. he's not just another trump puppet, he's trying to do his job the way he thinks it should be done, and he's not kissing trumps ass while he's doing it
I agree with you, (except maybe the respect part), but I certainly wish someone else had the job.

i agree, but trump will never pick anyone else who will stand up to him again.....if he removes Sessions, we'll get a trump puppet that will do as ordered....and the orders will be to ignore anything trump and his crowd does

Maybe the solution is one or possibly preferably two more parties, along with the "loser" getting partial voting rights based on the proportion of support, like done in France? I think also town hall type legislation, rather than centralised needs to be done too.

Imagine the difference if Trump only had 57.25% say and Clinton had 42.75% objection.

not a bad idea, but too "foreign" to american voters, they'd never go for that.
and at least at first, it would be a big soap opera, public fights and screaming matches, backstabbing, shit talking, mud slinging...blaming that other person for everything that doesn't work out....just like trump's administration does now.....

A strange piece of reasoning perhaps, but in this case it seems my lesser enemy of a greater enemy is my friend o_O
i don't like Sessions. i don't like a lot of his views and opinions. i don't like his stand on cannabis, and i don't like his willingness to implement trumps "immigration" policies.
but i do respect him for standing up to trump and refusing to interfere in the Meuller investigation. i do respect him for publicly refusing to target trump's enemies, and to keep the DOJ doing the job it's supposed to be doing.
an unpleasant person can be worthy of respect, and i think Sessions is that unpleasant person.

I liked him when he was grilling federal reserve chairmen. Now he makes me nervous, although I saw a video of him saying that his positon on medical cannabis had changed positively. Still makes me nervous.

Who cares about the Keebler Elf. A conservative leaning SCOTUS is everything at this point and that's the way its going to go.
That is the reason I took two shots of whiskey and voted for Donald Trump for President of the United States. I can hardly believe he hasn't disappointed me.

Oh you are a Trump supporter. Says a lot about you if Trump is not a disappointment. Vote for a man who is against the legalization of marijuana as you ask for the best path to legalization. Talk about uneducated fools. Stupid runs deep within you

I don't believe he is against legalization. I predict federal law will change in favor of cannabis while he is president.
