President Donald Trump said Thursday that Attorney General Jeff Sessions will stay in his post until at least the November midterm elections, according to a new report.

"I just would love to have him do a great job," Trump said during an interview with reporters from Bloomberg.

But when asked if he would keep Sessions past November, Trump reportedly declined to comment.

Trump's comment on Sessions' fate came after multiple Republican lawmakers have called on the president not to fire Sessions.

Sessions, who was one of the president's earliest supporters in Congress during Trump's 2016 presidential campaign, has been a regular target of Trump's rage since he recused himself from any investigations of Russian interference during that presidential contest.
