Bill Barr, two-time attorney general and one of approximately 2.5 members of the Trump administration to leave with his reputation intact, has also written one of only two books about that administration worth reading, “One Damn Thing After Another.” I’ve read ‘em all. At least partially. Most did not merit more than a quick skim.
[For those interested, the other book about the Trump administration worth reading is Michael Wolfe’s “Fire and Fury,” but judging by its sales, you probably already have this book.]
I’ve been a fan of Barr’s since long before he worked for Trump, and was thrilled when he became Trump’s A.G. But when I got to Barr’s description of Trump’s appeal — which went on for pages and pages! — I wanted to throw the book out the window.
You can probably guess where I’m headed.
By Barr’s lights, none of Trump’s positives involved ... immigration.
They will not learn. No matter what we do, no matter how many times Americans tell pollsters they want less immigration, no matter how loudly we beg Washington to halt the endless flow of the third world into our country, the ruling class refuses to listen.
If electing a cretinous flimflam artist to the presidency solely on the strength of his promise to be a hard-ass on immigration didn’t wake them up, nothing ever will.
The first clue about the absolute thickheadedness of anyone living within 100 miles of our nation’s capital was this deeply concerning line from Barr’s book:
“I had long planned on supporting Jeb Bush for the Republican presidential nomination in 2016.”

Ann Coulter is the Yoko Ono of the Republican party.

Covfefe jitters
Speaking of yourself, Ann, STFU.
Ann Coulter...seems I cared what she thought many years ago.
You can say that again, LOL!
anorexia and low blood sugar is a deadly combination
“Bill Barr, two-time attorney general and one of approximately 2.5 members of the Trump administration to leave with his reputation intact“
Stupid bi+ch never fails to delivery. Puts it right up front. She’s more a sideshow geek tent act nowadays than a commentator.
I’ve made a meme but...I’m at work.
That’s why I pinged foldy.
Ms. Coulter finally tells the truth. Barr maybe a brilliant Jurist, but in reality is an idiot on common sense.
You didn’t read the article.
It’s 100% correct.
The main purpose of the GOP since the Bush League took over in 1989 has been to block the citizens from stopping the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA).
Ann is the thick one, it has been plainly obvious that Bush League Republicans have been importing a permanent Democrat majority for 30 years.
“I had long planned on supporting Jeb Bush for the Republican presidential nomination in 2016.”
Didn’t Coulter support Romney in 2012 and Christy in 2016? They weren’t hardliners on immigration, far from it, so what is she bellyaching about?
Well, at least the basic premise of the article is correct.
This is how we know Ann Coulter is a total fraud.
Her "concern" about this line is completely inconsistent with her prior position as a Mitt Romney cheerleader.
This anorexic fishing pole should just go away.
Wow. Did Trump reject an advance from Ann at some point?
This is in the "Woman spurned" territory.
Ann Coulter has been brilliant on some issues, but I cannot understand for the life of me why she hates Trump.
Compared to everyone else running, he was amazing.
Ann is now one angry nasty B@#$% since she’s no longer invited to appear on TV anymore.
