A generally well liked dude in the senate, Jeff sessions could be the life of the party. But attorney general? Questions are being raised. In the past couple months since sessions' nomination, democrats and outside groups have been building up a case as to why we can't be confirmed. This senatorial courtesy has moved onto being a senatorial sucker punch to their colleague. The overall vibe from those who opposed was "I'd invite him to my bachelor party, but no more."
Many people drew from reasons from his rejection from the 1986 judgeship. The last time a senatorial courtesy hearing actually denied someone was in 1989, a senator from Texas. Many opposed sessions because of old lines in the sand. For instance, his views on the Hispanic community.
One senator questioned sessions: If need be, would sessions gather up an investigation to incriminate Trump.
And like Derek Hough, Sessions danced around that question like crazy.
All of this compiled together has actually delayed the confirmation of Jeff sessions another week. Awkward.
