If anyone had ANY doubts about WHY Donald Trump fired Jeff Sessions as his Attorney General?
They are living in different world then most of us….
Within hours of Trump naming a new guy to fill in the Attorney General slot?
He puts that guy, who is on the record as being against the very idea of the Mueller investigation of Trump….
The media is running on overtime with scenario’s that have Matthew Whitaker immediacy cutting funds to the Mueller operation, while leaking EVERYTHING going on to Trump personally…
Trump & Co. HAD to know this move was in the plan when Trump met with Rosenstein previously….

Trump had long bashed his attorney general over his recusal in the Russia probe. Sessions, who was the first GOP senator to endorse Trump in his 2016 campaign, faced repeated and public attacks from the president during his tenure, including having Trump questioning whether he had an attorney general.

“Given his previous comments advocating defunding and imposing limitations on the Mueller investigation, Mr. Whitaker should recuse himself from its oversight for the duration of his time as acting attorney general,” Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) said in a statement on Wednesday.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) echoed this call.

“The President is absolutely correct. Mueller has come up to a red line in the Russia 2016 election-meddling investigation that he is dangerously close to crossing,” Whitaker wrote, calling for Rosenstein to “limit the scope” of Mueller’s investigation.
Trump’s move to oust Sessions comes one day after the midterm elections, with Democrats regaining a majority in the House.
