"Barr is a Trump appointee."

You forgot the other side of the equation with that *nomination* and all the politics involved thereof FRiend.

The rest of what you wrote didn't address any particular point about the particulars and Barr's actual responsibilities he ignored, was in on, or is just plain old incompetent. Either way he is compromised in some form or fashion and got pissed Trump called him out on that. People acting like Trump is a tyrant and two other Branches don't exist, give me a break.

Would you want to work for a boss that habitually pisses on his own staff on twitter? Leaders tend to receive the kind of loyalty that they show to subordinates. That means you handle disagreements privately and, when necessary, remove people decently.

A competent manager would not have allowed the Jeff Sessions situation to fester nearly as long as it did. Trump couldn't find a way to move Sessions out and replace him with an attorney general who wasn't recused and could do the job? Give me a break. No other president of my lifetime would have allowed this to continue.

Trump couldn't fire Sessions on twitter, and he didn't know how to move him out gracefully, without a pissing match that would have undercut him in the context of the Mueller investigation. That's on Trump, the drama queen.
