I wasn’t watching. Did Barr just get up and leave?
No. Nad's was lambasted by Rep. Jordan. Bill Barr calmly pleaded for a break stating he went without lunch and needed one. (Probably to take a monster pee.) His piercing blow to Nad's was when he stated he waited for him for 45 minutes at the beginning of the "hearing" because Nad's was late due to a car "accident"! Finally Nad's relented knowing he messed up.
Barr also told Nadless that he "is a real class act" for not letting him have a five minute break after Barr had to wait for him for an hour in the morning.
He first reminded him it was against protocol not to allow a quick bathroom break. Then, he reminded Nadler we all had to wait an hour because you (Nadler) were late to the meeting (fender bender). He then reminded Nadler there was no break for lunch.
Jordan spoke up in his defense. When Nadler wilted and relented, Barr started laughing and said "thanks, you are a real class act" with bitter sarcasm! It could simply not have been done better.
I will post a link when I find it.
Yes, Barr got up and left, after making Nadler appear even shorter than his 4’ 10” statue, and making him look like a complete idiot. Could not happen to a more deserving man.
