Oracle posted:He sounds whiny, wheedling, nasally, high-pitched, lisping and petulant. He's trying for outrage but it sounds rehearsed and he stumbles over his words when he tries to emphasize them. His stiff hand motions don't help either. He needs some voice coaching, because it would have been a lot more impactful otherwise. he got the quote he was looking for, it'll look better in print

Fitzy Fitz posted:I don't understand what this means but hell yeah! The job of everyone dodging these questions has been to dodge them (a) without invoking executive privilege (because only Trump can) and (b) without making Trump have to answer that question. The Trump Administration wants to not answer the question, but not invoke the privilege. They want their underlings to take the heat. Sessions instead lobbed that grenade that he's supposed to be jumping on himself at Trump. Trump has to now invoke privilege or tell Sessions to answer the drat question, while with the three intelligence officials who stonewalled the Administration doesn't have to do anything at all.
