Morning Joe's Mika Brzezinski suggested Tuesday that President Trump's recent treatment of Attorney General Jeff Sessions isn't all that different from Trump's treatment of one of his greatest mortal enemies. "It feels like he's treating Sessions and many others along the way in this administration like Rosie O'Donnell," Brzezinski said.

Now, Trump has not called Sessions "crude, rude, obnoxious, and dumb" — all among the words he's used to describe O'Donnell in their decade-long insult battle. On Tuesday, however, Trump did call Sessions out on Twitter for his "VERY weak position on Hillary Clinton crimes." The day before, Trump labeled Sessions "beleaguered."
