For a lawyer, Barr is really stupid.
The definition of extortion is “the practice of obtaining something, especially money, through force or threats.”
President Trump isn’t threatening anyone or anything except the RINO by beating them at the ballot box- fair and square.
I thought that Barr was a rather stupid individual. However, as he held many important jobs I thought I must be wrong - although I had no reason to suspect otherwise. I should have stuck with my first impression.
So, if what Trump is doing is extortion, then what the GOPe is doing by NOT supporting the candidates the voters select, has to be extortion as well. “Vote for OUR candidate, or we will not provide campaign funds for the general election.”
