>> “...Sessions, stalwart of the America First camp, has long been ‘the biggest skeptic in the room’ when the subject of a continued presence in Afghanistan arises in meetings of Trump’s war cabinet ... ‘The A.G. asks the same question: Is this what we were elected to do? And the answer to the question is no.’” <http://original.antiwar.com/justin/2017/08/15/way-trump-administration/>.
