15. Why don't you think there'll be a Comey-sequel ?

Do you think Barr wouldn’t stoop to just making some crazy junk up a week before the election?

Barr comes out Oct 23rd saying: “ I have evidence Joe Biden did XXXXX.”

Republicans believe it, because of course.
Democrats believe it, because it’s what we ALWAYS do.

Then Nov 3rd, Barr announces “Oops! It really wasn’t evidence of anything at all. “

Barr lies.
Trump lies.
McEnany lies.
They all lie.

I have no reason to believe that they would not whip out a doozy a week before Election Day.

So be ready. And be ready to remind everyone that: they LIE.
