President Trump Says AG Jeff Sessions' Job Safe for Now
President Trump Says AG Jeff Sessions' Job Safe for Now
Attorney General Jeff Sessions' job is safe until the midterm elections, President Donald Trump indicated Thursday. "I just would love to have him do a great job," Trump said in a Thursday interview with Bloomberg. The president declined to say how long he'd keep Sessions, a former Alabama Senator and early Trump supporter, after the key November elections, however. Sessions has been a frequent target of Trump's ire after the AG recused himself from the Russia investigation. During the Bloomberg interview, Trump called the investigation by Special Counsel Robert Mueller "illegal." The president added he'd "love to have (Sessions) look at the other side," referring to his calls for the Justice Department to investigate 2016 presidential challenger Hillary Clinton and Russian interference in the elections. "I do question what is Jeff doing," Trump said.
