a) The Russians and therefore Trump have shit on him
b) He was interviewing for the Attorney General when Scarlett gets fired.
c) He's really an asshole and McCain told him what to say and do
D) All the above

He's sweating big time these days and it's not about his "principles" or his ambitions. It's about saving his ass. We'll find out some day soon, I hope.

doesnt want someone in his personal life exposed. Must be way more than just about himself. That or is his just a far, far bigger shit than I thought he was. And ive Always thought he was a shit.
