Laura totally tuned me out last night with the whole Barr resignation thing. Done with her. I’m now down to Dobbs and Hannity (I turn him on after his opening 20 minute torturous, repetitive opening monologue.

Attorney General William Barr has warned people close to Trump that he might resign if the president continues commenting on criminal cases.

_______________

That is literally incorrect.

What criminal cases? Who has he charged with anything? Fat bag of gas. Resign already. Go write your pathetic book. I'll give you the title: "Blow Hard: How I Bagpiped My Way To Irrelevance".

Is it at all possible that Pr. Trump’s criticism of Barr is an effort to make Barr look like he is no friend of the president?

___________

As possible as Juan Williams and Donna Brazile not being obnoxious.

Barr is only managing the cases against Stone and Flynn. He hasn’t and won’t bring charges against any democrat involved. He’s there to clean up and sweep all the Muller stuff under the rug to protect the institutions. Barr is almost as effective as Sessions was.

We need Tom Fitton. He would kick ass as an interim AG!

I was thinking more along the lines of the Special Prosecutor he tweeted about. He has made more FOIA requests than anyone else and as a deputized official he could connect the dots from the inside-out.

“No way he carpet bombs the DOJ like that if he was happy with Barr.”

President Trump may or may not be pissed at Barr regarding DOJ inaction, but I doubt that is his motive for these tweets.

The most obvious motive for his tweets is simple: so that 73 million people get to hear his side of the story (the truth), which they will never hear anywhere else.

Another likely motive is to sabotage and undermine the anti-Trump narratives being pushed by Democrats and their MSM propaganda regarding AG Barr.

Look how the narrative has changed as a result of his tweets:

Whereas last week they were saying “Barr is not a real AG, he is Trump’s obedient bitch and should resign in disgrace”, they are now saying “Trump’s bullying is so unwelcome by the AG that he may quit.”

What is interesting is the anti-Trump factions are trying to have it both ways, and as a result, their message is getting diluted and confused.

On the one hand, they want to push the idea that Trump-the-Dictator controls Republican leaders, the AG, and other cabinet chiefs with an iron fist, and that they are “yes men” who do his bidding without question (except Mitt Romney).

On the other hand, they also want to suggest Trump’s entire administration is in chaos, they all openly disagree with him and eventually quit or get fired because Trump has no control over them.

So which is it, a Ruthless Iron-Fisted Trump, or a Weak Powerless Trump?

My guess is that half his reason for tweeting what he tweets is to keep the fake news confused and conflicted.

you don’t want to go there. It’s a trap for me to resurrect your false premises and start a new argument on an old issue.

But go ahead That’s not all you disagreed with and were wrong. You were anti-father rights and responsibilities, as I recall.

Now I’m putting down your tar blabby.

Have fun with your Rule of Law Apologia. But go ahead, why not do a homage on my 10 worst posts.

“You were anti-father rights and responsibilities, as I recall.”

Thanks for reminding everyone why you were called “big lie” on those threads.
