Former Attorney General Bill Barr accused former President Donald Trump Thursday of practicing “extortion” on the Republican Party by endorsing his own batch of candidates in “pursuit of a personal agenda” at a time when the GOP should be making huge electoral gains.
“This pursuit of a personal agenda and personal power is weakening the Republican Party at a time when it could have a historic victory and make historic progress in ‘making America great again,'” Barr said in an interview published on Bari Weiss’ “Common Sense” Substack.
“The tactic that Trump is using to exert this control over the Republican Party is extortion,” the former AG added. “What other great leader has done this? Telling the party, ‘If it’s not me, I’m going to ruin your election chances by telling my base to sit home. And I’ll sabotage whoever you nominate other than me.’ It shows what he’s all about. He’s all about himself.”

Sit your big arse down and shut your fat mouth!! You’re only popular with the ones the MAGA Patriots are trying to get rid of.....POS!!!
If you have a PRAVDA pretending to be media it’s easy
I know and had to be careful how much I criticized Trump because his main folly was his lack of HR skills. I loved everything else about him but he sure failed in getting loyal conservatives on his team. Instead he got weak, navel gazing, and sometimes treasonous members on his team.
He gives Karl Rove a run for the money on pettiness.
Hey Barr, got anything to say about Soros, Gates, Zuckerberg, Bezos, Twitter Jack, etc?
Bill, you are a scumbag POS.
Perhaps this fatass can spend a few minutes talking to your average American. Maybe he will comprehend that it's not about Trump. It's about America.
The RINOs can kiss my ass and go to hell. President Trump is simply “endorsing” those who have the mindset this country needs, not the same old, same old.
Just because Republicans may have the majority come November doesn't mean that's a good thing if we have Republicans who are determined to keep America going down the wrong path.
These out of touch elitist aholes just piss me off to no end with their BS meanderings.
Nicely expressed there. I think right now Trump is 181 wins over 11 losses for 2022. Bill Barr is on to something.
Another pathological liar.
Just paint "GOODYEAR" on the bastards FAT A$$ and send him up.
called leverage not extortion you big fat wind pipe blowing bal licker...Barrr
The RNC’s fund raising FRAUD hasn’t worked with me since “LORD HIGH ALMIGHTY KING BUSH THE 1st” LIED about “no new taxes”!
I can happily say that I have not given the RNC one single penny since then, and I never will again.
If I see a republican candidate that I would like to donate to, I make damn sure that the RNC does not profit from that donation.
My money goes directly to the candidate, no middleman/no cut organization!
Always read the fine print on any solicitation, if my money doesn’t go DIRECTLY TO THE CANDIDATE then there’s no donation.
The RNC is nothing but a corrupt pyramid scheme to enrich incumbents, so they get nothing from me, IN ABUNDANCE!
Barr is a Bushite. He’s mad because his RINOs are getting their butts kicked even while massively outspending America First candidates.
Political parties are not supposed to dictate to the citizenry who they will have as choices to vote for in general elections. The government exists FOR the people Mr. Barr, is EMPLOYED by the people, and is CHOSEN by the people.
If Trump promotes candidates who the citizenry like, then he is serving the citizenry. He has no obligation to serve a party of wannabe oligarchs.
Ineffective Barr supports ineffective GOPe McConnell candidates. Who would have thought that?
“This is how I see the Republican Party: There's never been more consistent conservatism within the Republican Party than there is today,” he said. “The idea that there are RINOs, people that really don't support Republican principles, is simply not true.”
Excuse me Ineffective Barr, if we had America First Republican leaders for the last 30 years, all our supply chains wouldn't be going through Beijing. But because of Beijing McConnell and other America Last RINOs they do! So with all due respect, STFU!
It’s called liberty bill.
You cow pie .
I truly do NOT give a rat’s behind about ANYTHING Barr says or thinks.
IMO—He is a traitor to the USA.
Providing cover/excuses for the next(election) steal.
It’s worse than that.
Many in the Stupid Party actively sabotaged PDJT, including Mr. Bagpipes.
Presidents have no right to participate in politics.
