12. The committee is playing this out just so

For folks who want to defend the former guy, Barr's testimony really kneecaps them. In the coming days, look for all kinds of rationalizations along the lines of "Bill Barr was never on Team Trump anyway, he's a turncoat and a RINO, and Trump should never have trusted him." We wait for that reaction to play out.

Then bring in these tweets from Sherrilyn Ifill, reminding people just what a toady Bill Barr was from his audition memo to replace Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III as attorney general until mid-December 2020. That should shatter a few more illusions about the former guy's reign of error.
