So, clearly the Attorney General (and one of the first mainstream Trump supporters) Jeff Sessions has lost the favor of President Trump and is now the subject of humiliating public chastisement from the President via Twitter and new interviews.
So the question is, will Trump eventually insult Sessions enough to make him resign or will Sessions stay on just to spite Trump until he finally fires him?
I have many conflicting views about this: One one hand, it's a completely unwarranted disgusting betrayal of one of his earliest and most loyal supporters by Trump. On the other hand, Sessions was one of Trump's earliest and most vocal supporters... So he probably kind of deserves the treatment that even my 2 year old could have predicted. Trump only likes sycophants- you must be a loud unquestioning Trump defender at all times, or else he'll toss you aside like so much garbage. For Trump, loyalty is a one-way street. Anyone willing to serve in his administration is kind of asking for what they get.
