Trump tweets sinister warning to disloyal aides as he mocks Sessions over primary result

Donald Trump mocked ex-Attorney General Jeff Sessions after it was reported his congressional bid in the Alabama Republican primaries would be heading into a runoff election, while seemingly issuing a warning to his former appointees.

The president wrote in a tweet posted on Wednesday morning: "This is what happens to someone who loyally gets appointed Attorney General of the United States [and] then doesn’t have the wisdom or courage to stare down [and] end the phony Russia Witch Hunt."

"Recuses himself on FIRST DAY in office," he added, "and the Mueller Scam begins!"
