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.
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.
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?
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.”
Barr’s been missing a lot of parties he’s doing a lot of sucking up.
Just another reprobate for sale chump when out of office.
Barr is yet another Deep Stater nominated by Trump.
Our country can’t afford any more “tooSmart/2” people calling the shots. William Barr’s time has come . . . and gone.
Pretty much confirms that it’s all about jealousy, IMHO. It’s personal.
Wow....
Attorney General Bill Barr’s father, Donald Barr, was a WW2 OSS spook ( pre-CIA) who went into academia, worked as headmaster of elite NYC prep school that hired 21-yr old Jeffery Epstein as a math teacher, despite him having no degree.
Ironically Donald Barr wrote fantasy literature about pedophilia and rape.
From wiki. Cant make this stuff up
( Donald Barr)…was headmaster of the Dalton School from 1964 to 1974.[9] During his time as Dalton’s headmaster, Barr is alleged to have had a role in hiring future financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein as a math teacher despite the fact that Epstein (who graduated from high school at the age of 16 and secured a full scholarship to Cooper Union) had failed to complete his degree and was only 21 years old at the time.[10][11]
In 1973, Barr published Space Relations, a science fiction novel about a planet ruled by oligarchs who engage in child sex slavery. It has been noted that the plot of the novel anticipates the crimes of Epstein and his alleged accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell.[12]

I saw on And We know that Epstein worked for Barr’s father in the 70s when he was a teacher.
