Anyone hoping Barr resigns, you need to consider this:

I'm listening to POTUS Politics on Sirius XM. Dam Abrams Show. His words: If Barr resigns, who do we get then? Somebody DT appoints as temp. AG. Who would he appoint? Jeanine Schapiro or someone like her?

Made me think. As bad a Barr is, his replacement could sure be WORSE! Just the image of Jeanine made me gag!

But she's also a bat-shit crazy drunk and I am not sure she would be as effective as Barr has been. Total drama queen and not as functional or as "respected".

this is getting so much attention.

Barr is not going to resign. What the end game is with this little charade is yet to be clear but judging by all the attention he's getting from the media it appears to be providing him with a shade of impartiality at a time when a lot of current and ex law enforcement professionals are calling for his resignation.

Repeat after me: Barr is not going to resign. Barr is not going to resign.

Regardless, he's going exactly nowhere.

Their little song-and-dance is working perfectly.

They could lose their jobs if the Orange One sees fit to say good-bye to Barr. I doubt he'll resign.

It would be a sideways switch. And it's not going to happen. Trump is Republicans and Republicans are Trump.

18. Jeanine has some fascinating lips. Almost hypnotic. The kind of lips Newt Gingrich would love.
