Reactions To Trump's Damning New York Times Interview

Reactions to malignant cancer on democracy Donald "Rump" Trump's interview yesterday with the New York Times:

POTUS attack on Russia recusal reveals yet again his violation of the essential independence of DOJ, a bedrock principle of our democracy.

My takeaway from the NYT interview, in which he mows down Sessions--Sessions!--is that Putin remains the only ally Trump has never betrayed.

Trump basically says he picked Sessions to block investigations. Close, but I think it counts as another confession. https://t.co/Y1bWOfCL3u
