In reply to the discussion: Ex-CIA director slams Trump after McCabe firing: You'll be remembered as a 'disgraced demagogue' [View all]RVN VET71
(3,164 posts)But, then, how many of Trump's responses to the myriad disgraceful things he has done, or caused to be done, have not been beneath contempt? Sessions, however, seemed curiously adversarial to Trump, refusing to resign despite Trump's repeated humiliating insults -- publicly expressed! -- of him. Sessions is a die-hard racist, a man who is so backward looking that the civilized world -- including the 65 millions of Americans who voted against Trump in 2016 -- remains shocked and disturbed by his continued tenure as AG of the US. But still, it seemed that despite his despicable beliefs and medieval views of law and race, he at least had cojones enough to stand fast against Trump.
How wrong we were to think so.
Session's action shows him to be just another Trump sycophant, a man who kowtows and kneels before the dubious majesty of the worst mistake this nation has ever made, "President" Trump, an unrepentant lying cheat who has taken this nation to the brink of dictatorship. Before this clearly political action against McCabe, I had thought Sessions to be an ignorant and stubborn racist. I still do, of course, but now I know he is also a spineless, unprincipled pissant whom history will memorialize as such.
I feel hopeful that Mr. McCabe will prevail in his suit against the government. Considering the obvious political reasons behind his illegal firing, if he does not prevail, the American Constitution and the legal system created to defend and enforce it's tenets will be shown to have no more actual meaning than did the old Soviet constitution whose pages guaranteeing individual freedom may as well have been given to prisoners in the gulag to stoke the fading warmth of their dying fires.
