Barr says Trump conduct ‘betrayal’ of presidency
pbs.org ^ | January 7, 2020 | The Associated Press

Former Attorney General William Barr says President Donald Trump’s conduct as a violent mob of his supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol was a “betrayal of his office and supporters.”

In a statement to The Associated Press, Barr said Thursday that “orchestrating a mob to pressure Congress is inexcusable.”

Barr was one of Trump’s most loyal and ardent defenders in the Cabinet.

All Barr has done is show Barr is a traitor.

If Trump in 2017 had asked Giuliani to be atty. gen. and kept Sessions in the Senate, then there would have been no need for Barr.

It angers me when I see comments this naive. There is no possible way Giuliani would have been confirmed.

Swamp rat Barr is a traitor to the United States of America, so his ranting is simply projecting, just like his bedmates, the Demonicrats.

Lots of good came from that rally. Americans can now compare the reaction the government had to BLM/Antifa burning down the country (not a damn thing) to Trump supporters (and ANTIFA in disguise) breaking some glass—an AF veteran shot and left to bleed to death.

If those same protesters yesterday were dressed as ANTIFA, they would have received a standing ovation from the Botox Bitch and her toadies. And that AF veteran wouldn’t have received a bullet, but a medal of freedom for standing up against “Drumpf” and white supremacy.

“ The choices yesterday were heads we lose, tails we lose.”

One choice yesterday was to have a high profile debate in Congress on vote fraud, with detailed evidence laid out for all the nation to see. Then a vote that put all members in the spotlight as to whether they’re for or against fraud

All that got drowned out by the rally and “storming of Capitol”. The biggest winners are the Republicans who voted against Trump and for Biden’s electors. The rally and violence took all the spotlight and pressure off them , so they’re not facing the consequences that would otherwise be there

I posted weeks ago that this rally was not a good idea, trying to “influence” - or intimidate - Congress with a big rally would only let the media denounce MAGA as attempted mon rule, and allow antifa to create violence that would be blamed on MAGA. Trump never should have encouraged people to come. He should have publicly discouraged it.

Stopped reading right there.

Betrayal? Barr was fired for covering up ballot harvesting in Detroit. A single individual had harvesting 17,000 ballots alone in the case according to Michael Barnes.

I am so effing POed right now. And then they’re gonna shut him down from even speaking- the President of the United States! If I stated just how mad I am right now, they’d have grounds to lock me up. The GOP effed us. They had the houise, the sewnate, and the whitehouse and what did they do with it? Protect our 2A? Hell no. Tax cut for millionaires. I hope the commies tax them to death. I’m getting more pissed off by the second.

You may be right—but after the scholarly and civil debate we would have lost anyway.

Such tactics no longer interest me.

The rules have changed.

There are no more rules, just rulers.

The “be civil” types are just gonna get stomped by the Deep State.

The “be civil” types end up in gulags, death camps, and organ harvesting facilities.

That clown can’t conceive that “betrayal” works both ways.

F off, Barr!!! You’re just another disgruntled ex-employee, shut the hell up!

These cowardly pile-ons at this time say a lot about the conniving weasels attacking POTUS.

Barr, what a back-stabbing @hole!

Again, I don’t agree. The milksop pubbies were never going to fight back and they’re too tied to the notion that they can go through the motions and surrender. This is now a fight for the survival of the republic and the appeasers are only scared of those who will actually fight. They don’t believe that Trump supporters will do that because they are law abiding, however, these appeasers refused to follow the law to begin with so there is no recourse other than to take to the street to make the will of the people known. The republican party are the Menshaviks to the dem Bolsehviks and are going the same way.

I believe there will be a new party out of the ashes of the old republican party just like the republican party came out of the Whigs.

Barr betrayed America, pretty bad stuff. Allowing the illegal spying without a prosecution, total loser.
