I never understood why trump was so against Sessions. Was he a bad AG? Sure, but he was picked by Trump. Was he one of the few elected reps to back Trump? YES. Sessions was a sure bet to win in Nov and i cant think of of a more conservative sure vote than his. I have a funny feeling the media has a few scandals to launch against Tubby and i also wont be surprised if Sessions runs a write in or something else to get back at Trump

Or, another way to look at the upcoming race, Jones beat Moore by less than 1.7% of the vote at a time where my dog could have won that race by at least 5%. Tuberville is popular although I have heard he is a rino, I do not know, he should win easily.

I agree he will win easily. This contest showed the popularity of Trump. Sessions was a very popular senator, but it is obvious he was perceived by the electorate not to have been honest with Trump. As for Tuberville, I had an interaction with him when he was the Ole Miss coach and he struck me as a slick and sly used car salesman. Probably will fit right in with the GOP senators.
Former Attorney General Jeff Sessions has lost the Republican nomination for Senate to Tommy Tuberville in Alabama in Tuesday.

Many political appointees of Donald Trump have done a bad job.
Several Trump appointees, including National Security Advisor Michael Flynn, White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci, and Secretary of Health and Human Services Tom Price have had the shortest service tenures in the history of their respective offices.
I wonder why you failed to mention President Trump supported Tuberville over Sessions and in return Sessions got slaughtered by 25 points. Looks like the people of Alabama wanted President Trump's pick.
A far as Trump firing people...only a business man could understand that.

I'm gonna give him a chance. I don't think so much this was a result of the president's support but rather the thinking of the voters. Some of the times, voters did not go with the candidate supported by trump..if i remember correctly. I think voters decided that they were sick of long term senators and ones wanting their job back. I think a lot of us are still ticked at his disingenousness in recusing himself. He MIGHT have let us all know his intent before he was confirmed. ADDITIONALLY...and this was the biggest reason for me. He was a close buddy to the Bushs. I still believe that he was a bush plant. LOLOL i like that...bush plant. LOL
The coach will be our NEW Senator from Alabama next year...thats all that needs to be said....and he will be a patriot....
