President Trump has endorsed open-borders, cheap-foreign-labor shill Tommy Tuberville in the March 31st runoff primary against Jeff Sessions.

From Last week's Radio Derb (at 36m44s here):

One of the biggest black marks against Donald Trump has been his despicable treatment of Jeff Sessions.

You can dispute the rights and wrongs of Sessions recusing himself from the Russia probe, although you can't say anything worse than that he was over-punctilious. He surely wasn't treacherous or duplicitous.

What you can't dispute is that Trump has been conducting a low, mean, spiteful personal vendetta against one of his earliest and most loyal supporters.

This week Trump spat another gob of acid in Jeff Sessions' direction, gloating after Sessions came close second in Tuesday's primary for his old Alabama senate seat. Open-borders RINO Tommy Tuberville came first with 32 percent of the vote; Sessions got 31 percent. There'll be a runoff between the two of them March 31st.

Tweeted Trump, tweet:

This is what happens to someone who loyally gets appointed Attorney General of the United States and then doesn't have the wisdom or courage to stare down & end the phony Russia Witch Hunt.

End tweet.

Surveying our President's life, career, and character the words "wisdom" and "courage" are not the first that come to mind.

Yes, I'll vote for Trump; but nothing can make me like him.

Come to think of it: If he endorses Tuberville, I'm not sure I could bring myself to vote for him.
