Well, not answering is an answer. If it was straightforward, then no need for prevarication…

Even the guys who tried to provide cover for the cover-up, like this guy, are getting out while they can.

I am sure that Trump would like to get out while he can.

He cannot:

He is a man sick in mind, body, morality and spirit.

You just know some leftist Hollywood cabal is conspiring to deny awards to Trump officials. There’s too much acting going on for someone not to get officially recognized for it.

OT now it seems Trump has also pardoned Bernie Kerik and Michael Milken. It’s like every corrupt rich guy gets pardoned today.

Why leave now? He already ruined his reputation by spewing nonsense for the director/Trump. Maybe he’s planning on writing a book disclosing the name of the whistleblower. That would get White House and security clearance a lot faster than Bolton’s book.

It’s projection again — he’s pardoning himself by proxy.

Or maybe it’s just childish in-your-facery, doing things he thinks Democrats won’t like because he can.

Barr has utter contempt for Congress, the rule of law and the notion of “co-equal branches” of government. He loves getting before Congress so he can lie, dodge, mock and otherwise revel in the sport of telling them to “F off”. Barr is so corrupt, he makes Nixon’s John Mitchell look like a Founding Father.
