Sure why not. “Drain the swamp” was just a campaign slogan anyway.
Come on...no way!
We are being served milquetoast.
“Hideous, loathsome, abominable choice, if true.”
Trump appoints who Pence and Kelly allow him to appoint. This crap appointment would not surprise me in the least.
Bagpipers are crazy. Every last one of 'em.
1. I don't know a whole lot about him, but from what I have seen I'd say Barr was probably the best U.S. Attorney General since the Reagan administration. Take that for what it's worth, since most of these people have been knuckleheads at best and @ssholes at worst.
2. If Trump nominates Barr, I'd say the Mueller investigation is officially over. There's no good reason for Trump to hire someone with a long Washington track record if the Mueller debacle is still ongoing.
3. If Trump nominates Barr, then I'd say he was never as unhappy with Sessions as he has claimed to be for the last 18+ months.
He’s hard-assed.
And libertarian.
We could do worse.
What is your objection?
OOOPS!
I was referring to BOB Barr.
Washed up Post just wanted to throw a name out there that DS likes..
That would lose my vote. Same old $hit.
- 68 years old
- Native of New York City

- Domestic policy staff at the Reagan White House (82-83)
- Wrote opinions justifying the U.S. invasion of Panama and arrest of Manuel Noriega
- Easily confirmed as AG in only two days (1991)
Hmmm... One has to assume that this is Fake News..
OK, I’ll ask the question...
Who in your obviously well read opinion would be “Acceptable” to you?
The Ball is in your court as well as the rest of the naysayers who seem to feel that Trump is being steered
Let’s hear it...
Was he there during Ruby Ridge?
“sources told”
William Barr as an asst. AG under HW Bush-— was, according to the Air Force special ops pilot who was there, and worked with the drug running/cash drops/guns to Nicaragua contras and thereafter ops. They all met in a transition meeting at Mena, AR, where then govenor Clinton was also present. This was during the days post Barry Seals (the DOJ let the colombians kill him in Baton Rouge— illegal aliens with full auto machine guns, see Barry Seals).
Clinton being the nose powder monkey he was- was very interested in continuing the coke/cash shipments— dropped on his buddy’s farm from the air— and the cash— put in a drop box “deposit” at Stephens’ bank.
The “dynasty” friendship of the Clintons and Bushes.... all converge in the Mena, AR based op to support the Contras (it is debatable whether Casey and Ollie North briefed the VP on it, but not debatable that Bush as pres was trying to roll it up. It definitely was featured, along with taxes and undoing Reagan’s policies, in the one-term HW Bush loss to ... Billy “snort” Clinton. Remember all the anti drug efforts— Blue Thunder boats in Caribbean?).
The Air Force guy was 2nded to see eye aaaaa— and his book is still out there- and very readable. He had authority to buy special low speed bush prop planes (used extensively in Alaska— they can land on 30 feet of beach)— still made in GA. The book is readable, and full of this info.
William Barr IS the Deep State laundry operator— and, dirty. The last gasp of the amazon/Wa Po rumer machine. Barr ain’t getting a position, no freaking way.
NoooooooOOO!!!!!!
You need a Trump loyalist, not a Bush retread. I’m hearing in the media that he’s the pick!
I heard “Barr” on the radio and hoped it was Bob, but it’s not.
