Trump campaign sends letter to Sessions demanding he stop tying himself to Trump - NYT

SCOOP - Trump campaign sends letter to Sessions demanding he stop tying himself to Trump after Sessions campaign mail referenced Trump 22 times




President Trump’s campaign is demanding that Jeff Sessions, the former Attorney General, stop attaching himself to the president in his effort to win back his old Senate seat in Alabama, after Mr. Sessions distributed a campaign mailer that mentioned the president 22 times.

In an unusual letter to the Sessions campaign, which was obtained by The New York Times, the Trump campaign called Mr. Sessions’ claim that he is the president’s top supporter “delusional.”

“The Trump campaign has learned that your U.S. Senate campaign is circulating mailers like the one I have enclosed, in which you misleadingly promote your connections to and ‘support’ of President Trump,” Michael Glassner, the Trump campaign’s chief operating officer, wrote in the letter, which was sent on Tuesday.

Trump could shoot him on Fifth Avenue and Jeff's last words would be, "I'm not pressing charges."

After all your leader doesn't stop using other people's music when they have told him repeatedly to stop.

So, just follow your daddy.
