Trump supporters quick to believe William Barr as the final word.

[kentuck]

Confirming the old axiom, people hear what they want to hear.

Totally disregarding two years of investigation by Robert Mueller, all they needed was one person, William Barr, to tell them there was "no collusion and no obstruction". They needed to look no further.

What a non-partisan might see as "obstruction", they would see as "fighting back". Because that is what Donald Trump has told them to believe.

Ignore the facts. They only get in the way.

Bill Barr may as well have been Moses on Mt Sinai. He said it. They believe it. That settles it.

Never mind that Bill Barr lied from the moment he stepped to the podium and said that Donald Trump cooperated fully with the Mueller investigation. The facts state otherwise.

1. Trump (male) proclaimed it. Barr (male) repeated it

Fox News anchors/hosts (mostly male) drill it into their heads while pretty ladies sit next to them and nod.

All is right in their world.

2. How true kentuck

The base buys the lies

3. This is why we need to have public hearings

so Barr, Fox News, One America, Sinclair, Rush Limbaugh and others can't filter it

4. The problem is,

Bill Barr is the law until the SC says otherwise. If people believe that Barr is going to follow the law they haven't been paying attention. Bill Barr isn't going to honor subpoenas. Bill Barr isn't going to hand over un-redacted grand jury testimony until the SC says he has to, by then the excuse will be that it is too close to the election.

Bill Barr is the law.

For those who think that the best way to remove Trump from office is through the ballot box, I agree. Impeachment first, to get the grand jury information, and then voting him out at the ballot box. Once out of office we can indict the sob and throw his azz in jail.

5. Forget there was ever a Mueller report or a William Barr synopsis. Trump's supporters refuse to

recognize anything negative about the cult leader. He should be impeached BY BOTH PARTIES for the shame he's brought to the once most respected office in the land. The tweets, the crazy rants, the Fox News staff, lying Sarah, tax cuts for the rich, swamp cabinet, millions of dollars to play golf while enriching his own resort and thousands upon thousands of lies. At this point Don could BBQ puppies on a spit in the Rose Garden and the cult would say he was eating a healthy diet.

6. Willfull ignorance is powerful.

Willfull ignorance allowed the populations of Europe to convince themselves that the noxious odors coming from the crematoriums in the concentration camps wasn't the smell of burning bodies.

The ability of the human mind to shield us from painful reality can not be overstated.

7. Barr is the equivalent of giving Fox "News" a Cabinet position

Fox could give Hannity the night off and run an hour of recorded Barr statements and their viewers wouldn't notice the slightest variation in content.
