Discussion: The Attorney General Is Speaking The Language Of Fox News

It is deeply troubling to see how people who should know better and who understand abuse of power and corruption have sold their souls because there is a man in the White House who is so ignorant and narcissistic that they can manipulate him into giving them the kind of country they have always wanted. One day, sooner or later, those souls will come due.

Anybody thatā€™s looking at impeachment should take a good look at so-called Attorney General William Barr.
His rendering of the content of the Mueller investigation was completely and deliberately fraudulent.
To think that anyone who is supposed to be the chief law enforcement officer f the United States would fabricate such a total misrepresentation, should provide grounds for his execution.

ā€œthere were some very strange developments during that period. Thatā€™s one of the things we want to look into.ā€

There sure were, but the ones heā€™s talking about are from conservative fantasy land. The real ones were taking place in the trump transition team.

The Attorney General Is Speaking The Language Of Fox News

Because non-Trumpists donā€™t matter. They donā€™t need us to stay in power. Only the white rubes in rural states and not a few in ā€œbattleground statesā€ suburbs. As Josh wrote Trump has a huge advantage in the electoral college.

Weā€™re facing the prospect of perennial minority government into the foreseeable future.

perhaps, but IMHO a skilled authoritarian would be more subtle at this point in the proceedingsā€¦

Barr is acting more like a neanderthal who has just discovered that he can beat things to death with a rock.

Short version of Barrā€™s actions and words: Whatever it takes to ensure permanent Republican dominance, power, and absolute control.

heā€™s probably a very entertaining dinner party guest ā€“ good manners plus good stories would do the trick. (I mean Kissinger was a war criminal ā€“ but because he was willing to trash Nixon in social settings, he was a very sought after guest.)

Heā€™ll be going out sans reputation.

Donald appointed Barr as Attorney General of the President, not of the US.

And another instance of fox news pointing out republican bs about this

How do you wake up every morning and say to yourself: ā€œI am supporting a treasonous liar and outrageously stupid person as president.ā€ and then tie your tie, pick up your briefcase and go to work? Even if I were wealthy and republican, I just donā€™t think I could do it.

usually I agree with everything you say, 4. But is this even possible? Or, on second thought, I think it is, but it applies to 45*.

It really is amazing how quickly and completely Republicans have discarded every American value. But then I always suspected they admired Sharia Law more than they were letting on.

Because you donā€™t wake up and say that. Instead you say ā€œDemocrats are trying to destroy America with their socialist agenda. Donald Trump is all that stands between constitutional government, and a communist dictatorship ā€“ and Iā€™m proud to be able to help him stand up for America!ā€

Seriously. This is what these people believe ā€“ I have family members who think like thisā€¦

Iā€™m sure your family and other american people believe this. But NO ONE inside the beltway does. They despise him. At least saint reagan, who I always thought was a phony, had affability and charm for his associates and staff - 45* doesnā€™t even have that.

Barr is operating in a reality in which he is betting that the

#I. B.

will protect him. The I.B. meaning the Trump-imposed Information Blackout. Barr and Trump are working on creating an imposed dearth of meaningful data on Trumpā€™s misdeeds. It is not totally working, but it IS working enough to demoralize a good many of us.

The reason that Barr is stupider than Hannity is that he is banking that, from now until Nov 2020, Trump can

  • I.B.

  • Message a different reality to hook enough Independents in swing states to buttress his Red State voters

  • Use McConnellā€™s judges and SCOTUS if necessary

  • CHEAT

And I do not believe that this strategy will work. And it is STUPID to have your reputation for history go down in flames for an enterprise (helping Trump stay in power) for a much less than 30% possibility that Trump can be re-elected

It mustnā€™t go without saying that Fox has been a huge winner in the Trump admin. How many Fox employees has Trump appointed to powerful government positions? 4? 5?

Trump knows who butters his bread. Fox is the oligarchsā€™ tool, and Trump consistently showers it with unparalleled legitimacy.
