Apparently, the Donald is incredibly pissed off because he hand-picked Jeff Sessions to be a loyalist, and among other things to make sure the Russia investigation didn't go anywhere, and then Sessions turns around and recuses himself. That's not why he made him attorney general. I wonder if Sessions is on the way out or if Trump is just venting, as is his wont.“Jeff Sessions takes the job, gets into the job, recuses himself, which frankly I think is very unfair to the president,” he added. “How do you take a job and then recuse yourself? If he would have recused himself before the job, I would have said, ‘Thanks, Jeff, but I’m not going to take you.’ It’s extremely unfair — and that’s a mild word — to the president.”

I'll be interested to see the actual transcript of the interview.
