Bill Barr: 'I can't think of a legitimate reason' why Trump had these classified documents
HotAir ^ | John Sexton | Sep 02, 2022

Bill Barr appeared on Fox News today and what he had to say is already trending on Twitter. The whole interview doesn’t appear to be on YouTube yet but Justin Baragona from the Daily Beast has posted it in segments on Twitter.

First up, Barr was asked about the pending decision to appoint a special master to review the seized documents. Barr did allow that any private communications between Trump and his attorney need to be sorted out but said he mostly saw it as a “red herring” since it appears the documents have already been reviewed by the DOJ.

The next question was more basic. John Roberts asked, “Is there any legitimate reason for those materials to be in the former president’s possession?” Barr replied, “No. I can’t think of a legitimate reason why they should have been, could be taken away from the government if they’re classified.” Barr was added that he was skeptical of the claim that Trump declassified everything and added that if he did so without considering the individual documents that would be reckless.

He was POTUS ... his own reasons at the time were adequate. That essentially worked for Hillary as a mere SoS, it worked for Obama ... why ... oh, right, not a Democrat....

Well, when your purpose after being hired was to cover up and derail investigation into the very malfeasance and lawbreaking the declassified documents are evidence of I can see why you’d feel that way. You fat _____.

I guess Barr just outed himself as unqualified for all those high-level government jobs he held.
BTW - does this fat duck have a life? We were told how he was over 70 years old and had grandchildren with whom he wanted to spend time.

I can’t think of a legitimate reason for an AG and a Law Enforcement agency to hide the crimes of Hunter, James, and Joe Biden.

They were (likely illegally) monitoring Rudy G so they could Raid and neutralize anything he had that could hurt Joe.


Why did you aid and abet the Biden Cash Machine and illegal money Laundering scheme?

Durham wanted Documents. Did he initiate a Federal Raid?
He went to a Judge and asked they be compelled to hand over the Documents.

Why didn’t they ask a Judge to direct Trump to hand over the Documents?

A slimy DC lawyer gets more respect than a POTUS with declassification powers?

Instead of requesting a Judge direct Trump to hand over Docs, they went to an Epstein Magistrate that was known to Hate Trump, and they did it over an App. They didn’t even appear in person.

Bill Barr had “no guts,” and got “no glory.” He was a weak and pathetic RINO, who was so afraid of being Impeached that he became a captive to the Radical Left Democrats - “Please, please, please don't impeach me,” he supposedly said. Barr never fought the way he should have for Election Integrity, and so much else. He started off OK as A.G., but faded fast - Didn't have courage or stamina. People like that will never Make America Great Again!

How does Barr know what classified documents Trump had? Does he have an inside source?

And is he so ignorant of the law that he doesn’t know that if Trump says they are not classified then they are not classified?

Ridiculous statement. Barr makes such a statement when he has not even seen the documents.

There is no legitimate reason. Or why he didn’t return them the first time. Or why they were not under lock and key. Or why some of the folders were already empty.
