Strom Thurmond, the former segregationist candidate for president was the Republican Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee in 1986 and he tried to get Jeff Sessions` nomination through that committee, but he couldn`t.

Melania Trump`s husband tweeted this: "Cher, I don`t wear a rug, it`s mine, and I promise not to talk about your massive plastic surgeries that didn`t work."

He addressed a black lawyer as "boy". That`s why Jeff Sessions couldn`t get through Senate confirmation process under the old rules followed by Democrats and Republicans.

Donald Trump hasn`t decided, and most importantly, we don`t know if the old rules still apply.

Under the old rules, Steve Bannon could never get a security clearance. But there could be a new rule, the Trump Rule.

Someone who traffics in much more than what Jeff Sessions said back then will be with the president every day in the White House as his senior strategist.

I`d like to curl up in a ball like Hillary [Clinton]said she would but she is out. And I think we all have to go do that. The fact of the matter is we don`t have the luxury of pulling back from this.
