Trump's Former AG Bill Barr Lowers the Boom in Stunning Analysis on Fox News Sunday: 'If Even Half of it is True, He is Toast'

Former President Donald Trump's Attorney General, Bill Barr, believes his old boss is in very serious trouble if "even half" of what is laid out in the 37-count federal indictment against him is true.

In a stunning analysis of the former president's legal peril on Fox News Sunday, Barr cited and concurred with the assessment of Fox News legal contributor Andy McCarthy.
"If even half of it is true, he is toast," Barr said. "I mean, it's a very detailed indictment, and it's very, very damning."

Barr went on to take a flamethrower to Trump's claims that he is being politically persecuted.
"This idea of presenting Trump as a victim here or a victim of a witch hunt is ridiculous," Barr said. "Yes, he's been a victim in the past. His adversaries have obsessively pursued him with phony claims. And I've been at his side defending against them when he is a victim. But this is much different. He's not a victim here. He was totally wrong that he had the right to have those documents. Those documents are among the most sensitive secrets that the country has. They have to be in the custody of the archivist. He had no right to maintain them and retain them."

The former attorney general acknowledged there has been bad blood between him and his old boss. But he cited other instances where he has supported Trump to make clear he views this case as a completely different animal.
"He's been angry with me for a while," Barr said. "But you know, I defended the president on on Russia-gate. I stood up and called out (Manhattan District Attorney) Alvin Bragg's politicized hit job. And I have spoken out for 30 years about the abuse of the criminal justice process to influence politics. But this is simply not true. This particular episode of trying to retrieve those documents, the government acted responsibly. and it was Donald Trump who acted irresponsibly."

But we were told Barr was Trump's lackey and only did what Trump demanded! How odd...

Oh ok. So now they believ Barr

These are the same people that believe the Russia collusion pee pee dossier

I make sure to avoid these people for our own safety

He may be 100 percent right on this case (he probably is). The problem is, he may also have been 100 percent right on the cases where he said Trump had been improperly targeted and falsely accused (he probably was). The past abuse creates suspicion for the current case. So, these abuses took place in the past, but this time it's different. Unfortunately, past abuses have damaged credibility to the point where a significant portion of the people will not believe the charges are merited.

Oh ok, so now you don't believe Barr.

Barr is a lifelong conservative, a brilliant legal mind, and has more integrity in his left thumb than Trump has ever had.

Whatever is expedient is what works for him

Agreed on that. Same for his AG but Trump came in thinking he would work together with people to get things done and before the acceptance speech the Dems were wailing and screeching that "trump stole it!" And "Putin tricked us!"

Lol

And now this. All very amusing. But they've exposed themselves so we can avoid them in many many ways and they'll never even know the repercussions but continue wallowing in misery and *****ing about it

Barr's explanation in the beginning of his book of the election and what happened was the best I read. I know Barr is a RINO...

I love how the usual zealots are doing damage control. As if the sicem365 opinion might be bad for poor dear leader. Got to keep morale up!

If half of it is true, it would be the first time that half of it was true.

Impressive statement by an honorable man and former AG.

Must admit, Barr has alterred my perception of the situation.

Barr went on to take a flamethrower to Trump's claims that he is being politically persecuted.

"This idea of presenting Trump as a victim here or a victim of a witch hunt is ridiculous," Barr said. "Yes, he's been a victim in the past. His adversaries have obsessively pursued him with phony claims. And I've been at his side defending against them when he is a victim. But this is much different. He's not a victim here.

Cannot wait to find out what information was in these documents. The government will have to talk about the information if it goes to trial. The world will find out. Are we really going to do this as a country? As a government?

Barr's picked up a lot of fans here. Wonder if they will get Team Barr jackets or just patches for their sleeves?

It's nothing compared to the fans Trump has got. Trump had people who claim to hate him pledging to vote for him years in advance! Barry just stating the obvious. I heard "honorable" mentioned. My how the accolades flow when the obvious is stated.

They will clash with your Gay Pride and Trans Kids Surgery Rights rockers.

A former president is going to die in prison.

GOP is going to push abortion and lose to Biden who we're letting get away with a $5M pay to play bribery scheme.

Great job America! We deserve everything coming our way.

You are the one that keeps attacking ANYONE that believes the Government had the right to indict. "Barr's picked up a lot of fans here. Wonder if they will get Team Barr jackets or just patches for their sleeves?" Note the quotation marks, they are yours. I am a counterpuncher (thought you would appreciate that...)

Weak? Actually, it was pretty good.

Barr is a sharp guy, and a decent man. If this is his opinion, I suspect Trump is in real trouble.

I can't believe Trump chose this hill to die on. Why not just turn over the damn documents? Why the hell did he need them?

Totally in line with his tendency to pick stupid and needless fights. Sounds like this one is going to come back to bite him.
