White House says Trump has no plans to shift cabinet members
WASHINGTON — Simmering tensions between President Donald Trump and his attorney general appear to be cooling down.
The White House said Monday that Trump has “100 per cent” confidence in his Cabinet, including Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
Trump has publicly belittled Sessions in in recent weeks, calling him “weak” and “beleaguered” in retaliation for Sessions’ decision to step aside from the federal investigation into Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election and potential ties between Trump campaign aides and Russian officials.
Asked about reports that Trump was considering moving Sessions to the Department of Homeland Security, White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders was clear.
