....to break the law for him.

Sessions has been incredibly loyal and has even stuck around taking constant beatings and humiliation from his Master. But it was even too much for the Traitor in Chief to ask the AG to opening break the law and not recuse himself.

I believe the reality is that Sessions was also deeply involved in the conspiracy and will eventually be forced like Flynn and Cohen to make a choice - be ruined financially in huge legal defense and go to Prison or try to negotiate a lighter sentence and have some redemption as not being complete and absolute criminal treasonous slime like Trump and going against our Nation.

A beaten and abused dog can only do so much for its Master.

Maybe his parents didn't let him have a puppy as a kid and he has secretly felt deprived ever since?
