Trump choosing Barr reveals major lapse in judgment.
Let’s go to the video tape. People at the time said that Bill Barr would be excellent for this gig, that Trump couldn’t find anybody better (h/t Rush Limbaugh.)

They believed through Trump’s lawyer they would find corrupt deal after corrupt deal and payoffs for bids and inspections. Just didn’t work out.
