Bill Barr Goes after Trump Again
American Thinker ^ | 16 May, 2023 | John Green

Posted on 05/16/2023 4:58:18 AM PDT by MtnClimber

Bill Barr is inserting himself into politics again. And he's doing it in the best way to get fawning media coverage — sniping at his former boss, President Donald J. Trump. Barr issued a statement about Trump:

He does not have the ability for strategic thinking and linear thinking or setting priorities or how to get things done in the system. He will deliver chaos, and if anything lead to a backlash that will set his policies much further back than they otherwise would be.

The doctor's diagnosis is that Trump lacks the temperament or wisdom to deliver on his promises. Okay, fine. But before we accept his advice, let's assess his expertise on the subject.

Is Barr saying that another Trump presidency would somehow be different from the last? In his last term in office, Trump provided

- Middle East peace progress via the Abraham Accords,

-energy independence,

-secure borders,

-economic prosperity,

-enhanced national security — confronting threats and strengthening NATO, and

-exposing that the D.C. swamp was working against the wishes of the self-governed — perhaps his greatest accomplishment.

Is Barr saying Trump doesn't have the discipline to deliver any of that — again? Or is Barr simply in dread of the "chaos" that he perceived during the first Trump administration?

The problem is that the elitists don’t care about the citizens of this country. Their oaths mean nothing to them either.

or how to get things done in the system

Which is exactly why we need him.

The system is the problem - not the man.

“or how to get things done in the system”

Because the system has worked so well for ordinary Americans

What Barr is saying is Trump didn’t allow the deep state to run things the way it was done for decades. As a result chaos ensued because the deep state was busy trying to ouster Trump.

At least Jim Sessions has kept quiet since losing that last election.
Barr can’t shut up, so desperate to cut into anything Trump has to say.

It’s almost as though Bill Barr dreads the notion of Trump being President again because there is going to be some unfinished business on the agenda which will involve Bill Barr.

If Trump gets into the White House again, he absolutely MUST do a better job in selecting AG’s. Sessions and Barr were disasters for not only him, but the U.S. as well.

I really hope in a 2nd Trump he stays away from people in the “system”. Screw the Senate. Don’t let them turn advise and consent into, we will place deep state pukes in your administration. More people who have NEVER visited DC!

Swamp creatures are threatened by Trump and spew whatever bile they can. The chaos Trump causes is accountability, no one in DC wants to be accountable. They all want a blank check from the taxpayers.

The doctor?? Who's "the doctor"? Is Bill Barr a doctor??

Barr is just another petty lifelong deepstater with zero record of accomplishment jealous that an outsider like Trump was able to take the Presidency and turn a stagnant troubled nation into a well oiled machine. Trump continues to pile up receipts and these clowns keep embarrassing themselves.

Beltway insiders like Barr despised Trump because he was closed them as corrupt, feckless losers.
