In reply to the discussion: Scoop: Barr tells Republicans Durham report won't be ready by election [View all]wnylib
(21,628 posts)31. Those people who have been out of power
for 4 years are popular leaders in the political opposition party. One of them is the current candidate running against Trump. They are the most likely to lead the public outcry and backing of court cases against an attempted election theft by Trump. Discount those leaders with the report and portray them as the ones who are leading a coup, in order to quash opposition.
BTW, what dictatorship did you live under? Do you distinguish between the tactics of an established dictatorship versus the tactics of crushing a 2 centuries old democracy in order to transform it into a dictatorship?

If Barr thought Trump had any chance of winning, the report would have been released.

I wonder if Barr has decided to hedge his bets on a second term for Trump by not rushing release

Hoping to use it down the road as a defense for why he should not be disbarred?
