They want to enact their hellish agenda hurting the majority of the country. That’s hard to do in a democracy. Unless you have a malignant character who seems to be immune from accountability and has mesmerized a significant portion of the population. Barr was probably aware that here was a perfect opportunity and got excited enough to leave retirement and help with the spin to keep out the light of day. It’s a gamble and we’re all waiting to see if he wins his bet.
