I’ll wait until this thing plays out before beating my breast thank you.
Hyperbolic cynicism is as much a mental disease as “Don Quixote syndrome”....I aspire to neither.
Barr has been quite adept at handling the AG’s office for 5 months especially considering the disaster he took over. He understands the deep state, know how it works and even how to manipulate it to his advantage without being a part of it.
Trump has faith in him and I trust his judgment on this one. I’ll give him 6 months before wailing at the moon that there is no justice in the world and never will be.
It’s already played out. He will not go down. No hyperbole. No cynicism. This is reality. This is the reality we live in. People at this level don’t pay, because the people in charge of making them pay don’t want to pay for what they’re doing. It’s really just that simple. Barr knows that something he’s doing is breaking some law somewhere, he might not know what and which and law, but there’s a mathematical certainty in this world that you’re always doing something illegal. If Barr takes down Comey then that makes him fair game the next time a Dem president appoints an AG. It really is just that simple. No wailing, just paying attention to history. How many of the people you were sure were going down in the last 25 years or so have? Probably 0. Cause that’s how things work.
The power of accurate observation is often called cynicism by those who don’t have it.
