This corrupt son of a bitch wanted to run the justice department. Although to be fair, I suppose he wouldn't be much worse than Sessions.
Pruitt directly asked Trump to replace Sessions with him
Embattled Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt directly appealed to President Donald Trump this spring to fire Attorney General Jeff Sessions and let him run the Department of Justice instead, according to three people familiar with the proposal. In an Oval Office conversation with Trump, Pruitt offered to temporarily replace Sessions for 210 days under the Vacancies Reform Act, telling the President he would return to Oklahoma afterward to run for office.
