Not quoted by the Journal was Barr’s prediction that the former president will not gain re-nomination. That is the balderdash of a Never Trumper — yet Barr, elsewhere in his remarks to the City Club, denied he is a Never Trumper. And although the Journal focused only on Barr’s comments critical of the former president, Barr, in the main, spoke in MAGA terms:
Dismissing Jan.6 as a “farce,” decrying the media’s hypocrisy and partisanship, recognizing that the Democrats have become an extreme left party, denying that Republicans are a threat to democracy, calling for an anti-crime, not anti-gun, policy.
In response to a barbed question on the January 6 “insurrection,” Barr said that the rule of law is really based on the Golden Rule — do unto others as you would have done unto you. He indicted that the rule of law abhors a double standard — everyone must be treated alike, and he implied that this is not the way of progressive thinking,
Possibly the most bizarre statement in the Journal’s My 8 editorial is the assertion that Mr. Trump “triggered a special counsel probe.” What would be Barr’s position on that incredible comment, particularly given the former attorney general’s sharp criticism of the Russiagate hoax, for which no one has yet to be held accountable. The Wall Street Journal should apologize for its skewed recitation of Barr’s Cleveland remarks by publishing the full text of his thought and reflections on the Op-Ed page.
Barr has become a rino Marxist. Maybe he is off his meds.
So the Bagpipe Guy’s attitude is basically...good President,bad man.
Barr was a duplicitous traitor and can never be trusted.
Barr was/is the enemy within the gates. He talks a good fight while stabbing the country in the back. If President Trump had an attorney general who would have worked for him instead of against him, Trump would still be president.
Then why not get them from the only man that set them as his goals? No one else has.
Duhhhhhhhh... i hate this attitude.
“Media say orange man bad... tweets mean things... so me no like... but policies OK”
Mr Barr should save his criticism for those who are actively destroying our nation: Biden and hi string pullers and gullible Republicans who think we have any chance with anyone but Trump.
Stupid fatass looked at “2000 mules” and said he saw no evidence of vote fraud??? what the heck kind of lawyer could say that- it was ALL evidence. Evidence I suggest would be admissible in court.
Barr, having risen so high in DC, should not be a stupid man. But stupid people do not realize - you can not separate Trump's policies (and achievements) from his character.
2016 we simply would have wound up with Jeb, who would have had his @ss-kicked by Hillary Clinton.
All those guys are afraid of Trump because he knows where the bodies are buried and won’t be constrained by having to worry about getting re-elected... Trump also knows who his real friends are now, so there will be less “resistance” when he tries to slash-and-burn the Deep Staters this time.
Wasn’t Barr in charge of Epstein??? How did that work out?
RE: Wasn’t Barr in charge of Epstein??? How did that work out?
I am thinking that he wanted out of being charge because too many prominent people are involved and he doesn’t want to make enemies of them. That is why he was relieved when Trump “lost” ( not the quotes ) and he can go back to private practice instead ( far, far away from having to deal with that mess ).
I just hate these people. Another person who will contribute to the idea that Trump can’t pick his staff very well, but somehow, the staff themselves are immune to criticism.
He isn’t anti anything, he is pro swamp and pro deep state...He had his chance to redeem himself by locking up and prosecuting every last person involved in the Russia Russia Russia Seditious Conspiracy to Overthrow a sitting US President, and he CHOSE the Swamp. May he suffer a long and painful death before he burns in HELL.
Traitor.
What these NeverTrumpers want are President Trumps policies implemented by a “politician”. BS! You will be major disappointed if that happens. None of these Trump-pretenders on the GOPe side are up to the task. If you want MAGA, then you have to elect President Trump and MAGA backers in the Senate and House.
I read the other day that Paul Ryan said (paraphrasing), “President Trump didn’t know how Government worked.” If that was so, how is it President Trump accomplished so much, is spite of Paul Ryan government roadblocks?
And don’t get me started on the civility issue.
Kind of like saying, “I spiritual but not religious.”
