Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ hazy, selective memory during testimony to the House Judiciary Committee created a lot material for late-night comedians.
When asked questions about Trump’s campaign and ties to Russia, Sessions often responded, “I don’t recall.”
“There were so many meetings about collusion, I’ve got the collusion confusion. It’s like brain fever with the vapors at the same time. I do believe,” “The Late Show” Stephen Colbert said.
“I’m starting to get a little worried here. Is something wrong with Jeff Sessions? Did he get hit by a big coconut on his way into the chamber?” he added.
Jeff Sessions does not have a great memory. In fact, just to remember his answers, he had to write them on his hand. #SessionsHearing #LSSC pic.twitter.com/B7gN3LmpJT

“The Tonight’s Show” host Jimmy Fallon joked about Sessions’ memory.
“At one point he was questioned about his stance on marijuana. You know, ’cause it’s a little odd when a guy’s anti-weed, but seems to forget every conversation he’s every had,” Fallon said.
Trevor Noah, host of the “Daily Show,” illustrated how Trump’s international policies allowed the China to become the most powerful nation in the world, surpassing the U.S.
