Say what you will about Richard Nixon, he didn’t have his former attorney general appearing on the Sunday shows and prophesizing his doom. Donald Trump does.
And make no mistake, he hates Bill Barr for doing so. Barr is one of the former staffers, along with John Bolton, most notably, who might have defended Trump at one time, but now makes a public persona about of making dire and dispassionate predictions about Trump circling the drain.
Here’s Trump’s latest unhinged comment from Truth Social. Enjoy them while they last, come the Fall expect TS to go dark.
Obviously Barr hit a nerve. Actually. Barr doesn’t sound weak or angry, he sounds composed and factual. That’s why Trump is going bonkers.
If you missed the piece in question, here it is.
The part I found intriguing is Barr accusing anybody of prosecutorial malfeasance. A bit of pot and kettle there. Plus, I loved it when he said that singling out the judge’s daughter for negative attention on social media was “not particularly helpful.”
As for “weaponizing the DOJ” the less said, the better.
I do agree with Barr that Trump’s legal issues are not going to help him in 2024, although there are all kinds of side plots afoot to guarantee Trump a second term, most notably the No Labels group, which could run a spoiler campaign in 2024 and bleed off enough votes from the Democrats to hand Trump a victory — at least in theory.
As Sherlock Holmes noted, “We are in dark and treacherous waters.”
Barr should be in prison.
He is a fascist “federalist ” that twists the law like he is making taffy.
He should be made to be afraid to appear in public and since he is fat asses accomplice, he needs to spend the rest of his life in prison.
Besides, fatso needs to lose weight….
I agree and tRUMP with him,really drain the swamp!
Is Barr up to something? Like making sure dolt 45 is gone this opening door for someone more… efficient and still just as evil? Is Barr not being … investigated for the Mueller fiasco (supposedly a counter intelligence (?) investigation was underway or assumed so by Mueller), no questions about any foreign $$ being used in 2016… sure I am forgetting some more. Oh, and that twerp Rosenstein… his deputy.
What gets to me about former guy’s whiny little tit tantrums is that most people, most magats in fact, would not allow their 2 or 3 year olds to get away with the sort of behavior the shit gibbon puts on display every fucking day. HOW does he maintain support even amongst the idiots in this country?
You are giving republiCLOWNS too much credit. Most of them although technically “adults” never get past the 3 year old stage.
That’s why I advocate MANDATORY abortions for all identifying as republiCLOWNS.
If you are stupid enough to join that cult, you should not be allowed near children because it appears that it is compromised of perverts and the mentally ill….
MAGAts with kids,are irresponsible parents,,and quite a,lot of them make no attempt to deal.with their kids having a meltdown. I lived in rural GA for 12years. I have been in grocery stores, Wal-Marts, and movies and restaurants.
Classic example: We headed to Wal-Mart tompick.up.A few things. It was late,, possibly even after 12 a.m. There were three kids,,maybe 10,8,,6,_running races x in the aisles. If someone inadvertently got in their path, they just shoved them aside. Owner is nowhere in sight. I tried to stay as close as possible to shelves to stay out of their space. Didn’t matter. The oldest reached out to shove me. I came damned close to hitting the concrete floor. I snatched the nearest kid and said “Take me to your parent.”
Mother was perusing stuff in housewares. I told her what her offspring were doing and how dangerous it was.
She shrugged and said “They’re kids. What do you expect me to do?”
“Try actually parenting and making them stop shoving people. Do.you know you can be sued? Or lose your kids due to.child endangerment? ”
I told a manager what was going on. She and her hellspawn were escorted out by the rent a cops.
Bill Barr is not fooling anyone. He did everything he could to coddle, protect and lie for DJT, who is so twisted that he doesn’t even appreciate that if it weren’t for Barr and McConnell, he would have been out on his ass with the first impeachment. What is Barr’s game? Protect and prop the guy up and then pretend he didn’t know what an ignorant monster is has always been?
These asshole buddies should both be in prison, maybe the same cell. The rest of the Republicans would make great fertilizer for the flyover states. I believe that time for democracy to defend itself has long past. We have given the MagaT’s plenty of time to repent. Now is the time to round them up and fence them in. I much prefer immigrants to these in-bred born here idiots. And I just love how these assholes have turned me into a fascist. Fuck ’em all but six and save them for pallbearers.
Barr is as much of an asshole as he ever was. But he’s not stupid. Here he’s just taking a few easy shots at another asshole who he served slavishly until even he realized it was time to leave the sinking ship. You can see that his main concern here is trying to save the GOP.
