Barr has been a good lap dog, why is Trump about to throw him away?

Slashing at Barr on Twitter this weekend instead of focusing on saving American lives amid a deadly surge in coronavirus cases, Trump reminded the nation of one of the truisms about the way he has regarded his allies both in business and politics: everyone is expendable if they do not follow his dictates. No matter how loyal an aide has been -- and regardless of how many times they put their own reputation on the line to do Trump's bidding -- the President has shown no compunction about casting them aside as soon he is convinced they are no longer useful as one of his political tools.

Why would anyone trust him?

Here is why Barr contradicted Trump about the election and seems to be friendly with Biden: because trump is wrong and he is, respectively. Barr is part of the establishment. The establishment has no functional difference between the parties regardless of the letter in front of their name.

oooo pretty gaslight

Gaslighting, eh?

I think gaslighting would be denying the relationship Biden and Barr have while ignoring the fact that Barr said he would like to continue being AG under Biden's presidency before election day.

Here is Biden's assessment of Barr:

"As I know you know, but others should know, too, I truly enjoyed working with you when you were attorney general," Biden told Barr, who had served as President George H.W. Bush's attorney general in the early 1990s. "You were one of the best I have ever worked with, and there have been a lot of attorneys general since I have been here, and I mean that sincerely."

But it is not just Biden who has love for Barr in the Democratic party:

After the two-day hearing concluded, Biden called Barr a "heck on an honorable guy." The late liberal lion Ted Kennedy, who also sat on the committee, praised Barr's career in government and was among those who voted 14-0 to unanimously recommend that Barr be confirmed. The Senate, then under Democratic control, would later confirm Barr in a voice vote with no objections.

^fooling nobody as usual.

^ Says one of the biggest Fools on KMC

Oh I mean..

*REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!*

Pot Kills the Imaginaiton after all.

The nail in the coffin of "Barr is not part of the establishment" is the falling out he's had with Trump since October.

"Adding to his crusade of spouting falsehoods about the election, President Trump continued having a meltdown over Attorney General Bill Barr keeping him in the dark about ongoing federal probes involving Hunter Biden that pre-date last month’s general election, during an interview that aired on “Fox and Friends” Sunday morning.

In the past week, Trump has continuously lashed out at Barr, who appears to have been on thin ice lately, following the Wall Street Journal’s report that suggested the attorney general has been working to keep quiet a federal probe involving the younger Biden during the campaigns leading up to last month’s election. The probe was launched in 2018, predating Barr’s tenure as attorney general.

Trump and his Republican allies have nagged Barr to investigate the younger Biden. The sitting president’s obsession with digging up dirt on the President-elect’s son leading up to the 2020 campaign, which includes a July 2019 call to pressure Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky into doing his bidding, ultimately led to Trump’s impeachment."

Wonderful, right?

Don't let anyone try to trick you into believing the Dems and the GOP are not in bed together. It's all a public PR game they are playing but they are all connected together.

A lot of good people on both sides.

Yep, the democrat establishment and the republican establishment are two sides of the same damn coin.

😂 dumbdumbman makes me laugh sometimes.

Grow up, Blakey.

Could it simply be Trump sees the writing on the wall and is distancing himself from his pal to help him out?

I'm not sure what Barr being a part of the establishment has anything to do with Trump's penchant to throw people away as soon as they don't bow down to his stupid demands.

Like I don't like Barr being under Trump definitely showed how spineless the dude was.

But this Trump temper tantrum 101 at this point. Someone I said a short while ago was amazing isn't doing exactly what I want then time to get rid of them bash them
