A former White House official recently compared President Trump's attacks on Attorney General Jeff Sessions to the behavior of an aggressive child.  That individual, who asked not to be named, said to the Washington Post, "It is a complete disgrace the way that Trump is acting like a schoolyard bully against Sessions."  The president has been incredibly open about his frustrations with Sessions, and his Tuesday interview with Hill.TV was no exception. Trump at one point stated, "I don't have an attorney general. It's very sad."  He also noted that Sessions' recusal from matters related to the Russia investigation is one of many issues he has with the attorney general's performance. "I'm not happy at the border, I'm not happy with numerous things," Trump said.
He reiterated that view Wednesday, telling reporters: "I'm disappointed in the attorney general for numerous reasons."
