Sessions downfall is a stark reminder to other republicans of what happens when you walk out too far on a limb for Trump. He will betray you.

(4,131 posts)Sessions was still missing Trumps ass at every opportunity. Sessions was Trumps first major endorsement; Sessions gave up his senate seat for a spot in Trumps administration; Sessions proclaimed his unwavering support for Trump as Trump was bending him over for years. That culminated in Sessions staggering defeat today.
Look how many Trump administration officials have come into his crosshairs. The lesson here for Republican pols is to never, ever go out on a limb for Trump.
