Why Trump Needs Bill Barr: We’re one attorney-general resignation away from establishing moralized hysteria as a normal tool of U.S. politics.

The president cab still make temporary appointments and put them into the Senate hopper.They do not have to be recess appointments.

I think Trump has figured out that as long as he puts the word ‘Acting’ in front of any Cabinet position, he doesn’t need Congressional approval, and his picks can serve as long as Trump likes.

So yes, I think Trump has Rudy in waiting in the wings in case Barr gets weak-kneed, which I highly doubt.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Thank goodness CathyWhite....finally some sanity on this thread.

“although I’m sure a lot of them are Dem trolls trying to stir up dissension and undermine Trump and Barr”

Early supporter of Trump and have never changed on that.
When Barr FINALLY lowers the boom and proves me wrong ..i will apologize all day long...I am honestly looking forward to apologizing profusely.
I never wanted to be more wrong about someone in my life!

Which playground you typing from?

We can’t go on much longer trying to peacefully coexist with people who are a threat to, among other things, our freedom, security and prosperity.

**************

That is the fundamental problem we are dealing with. We (conservative patriots) want and cherish freedom, security and prosperity. They (Democrats) want control, power and malleable laws that they can shape to suit their own desires.

These are irreconciable differences. There is no way we can coexist peacefully with people who have no respect for our views and beliefs.

Something is eventuually going to have to give. I suspect that we are heading for a new national alignment as legions of people are already voting with their feet and leaving the blue liberal states and several states have counties that are expressing a desire to secede from their oppressive state houses. Momentum seems to be building.

We’re certainly on the same wave length.

I’m 69 and in good health but wish I was much younger. (I’m still a good shot).

In other words Mr. Henninger, these deep state bureaucrats are not guided by basic moral principles such as honesty. If you’re taking them at their word, you’re probably being fooled.
