46. I think it was expected, trump through him under the bus a couple of weeks ago for his comments

about the no fraud in the elections.

I think Barr is running to prevent more personal damage, he knows that the bus comes around every day and trump will be ready to throw him under as many times as he can.

And I agree that the buffoon did not write that tweet, it is too eloquent to have come out of his putrid head.

I just hope Barr gets investigated, and that the Muller report is made public in its entirety.
