So do you think Barr will let Trump review the Mueller report before it's released?

[Kablooie]

I mean he is the president aftr all.
There might be personal things in there that he'd like to keep out of the public view.
Presidential privilege and all that.
He certainly has that right doesn't he?

Ahem.

Would Barr give in to this kind of blather?

I expect he will.

[Control-Z]

1. Not if he wants to keep his job.

That is, of course, if the maggot makes demands that even he can't abide.

2. Shhhh!!! I'm trying to hold out hope he's Poppy's deep state spy from beyond the grave ...

Somehow sent to make things right in the world.

You're ******* up my stick-boy fantasy world, Kab ...

3. K&R How about a Ghost?

4. He doesn't read anything longer than a paragraph

so Barr better give him the condensed version or tell him a brief summary.

5. Does Trump Ever Read Anything Besides Twitter?

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

6. Do you honestly think Trump will read more than

a paragraph? Or even three sentences?

Oh, Trump might pretend to review the Mueller report (assuming there even is a Mueller report which I suspect is right up there with unicorns and rainbows) but he won't read more than a sentence or two. He might pretend he's read it, might pretend he has some sort of opinion, which will not even remotely connect to the actual content of the report, but honestly, who gives a flying fuck what Trump purports to pretend in regards to a Mueller report? If such a thing actually occurs, which I personally doubt will ever happen.

7. If barr is smart

He'll wear a wire and record trump trying to obstruct justice by demanding he does things for him. I think that's what he took the job for, to help get him out of his position for them. If barr isn't smart , he with others will go to prison for allowing him to break the rule of laws. He doesn't strike me as a fool like the other AG's were. republicans now know how much trump is a cancer for them and the country now.

8. Of course Barr will brief the President. I'm surprised this is even a question.

Trump and his team have been briefed before every new indictment. It’s the work product of the DOJ, an agency subordinate to the executive.

They even briefed him before the SDNY indicted Cohen.

I would bet Trump will be tweeting “innocent!” Right after Barr gets the report from Mueller. And Barr will probably sit on it for a few days for analysis before delivering his own to Congress.

9. People think there are four branches of government.

There's the legislative, the executive, the judicial, and apparently the investigative (which is only there to make sure that the right people are in charge of the executive).
