He does this knowing other than faux news viewers it only lessens his credibility and does not hurt the IG’s report.

We gotta win in 2020. We gotta get a candidate who can beat Trump, not in San Francisco, not in NY, not in Austin, but in WI, PA, MI, FL, AZ, and hopefully NC and GA.

That is all that matters. Getting the best candidate, one who can get the votes of people in those states. Absent this we will be exactly like England with Jolly old Jeramy “Red” Corbyn giving Boris Johnson the inside shot.

Absent winning, it will be 4 years of people like Barr taking our democracy away.

Time for silliness and pipe dreams really needs to be over. If it does not poll well (i.e at 55+%) (see “medicare for all” / “green new deal” / wealth taxes at 6% / “free college for everyone”, taking away everyones guns, reperations ) it has to be chucked, along with those who support it.

That is why we must hold our investigators and prosecutors to the highest ethical and professional standards.

Barr’s lies about the report are intended for Trump and Fox “News”. His credibility is justifiably shot with the rest of us.

Right now, the top four are beating Fat Donnie in most of these states. Turnout is key. We can’t win this if our purists sit it out. It’s even close in Texas

Low Barr is in on it. But because he’s late to the party, he has to settle for Rudi’s sloppy seconds.

There ya go, spin. Back down. Surrender. The secret to our future electoral success is giving up on everything. Nothing can improve because Trump.

He’s trying to “mueller” the IG’s report. He’s got prior experience with that kind of thing.

Sad that when it comes to reality, everyday is Opposite Day at the DOJ.

I don’t think it is a coincidence that Warren’s polling problems began after she released her health care plan.

And anyone who believes that nominating a candidate who will fulfill some lefty dream agenda is a good idea might as well get used to saying “President Trump” for another four years.

I cannot understand what fubarr’s motivation is. Best I can come up with is keeping trump to nominate judges and justices that will rule against a woman’s right to choose to fulfill some Opus Dei fever dream

Barr is the master of using adjectives when verbs fail him.

And with ninety-five percent of the Justice Department workforce, I’d wager.
