Do you think Barr will cancel his $35,000 party at Trump's hotel?

I wonder. There's very little to be happy about in Trumpland right now, and Barr

might be a little hesitant to compound his sins by throwing a $35,000 bone to Trump.

Everything, everything Trump touches turns to shit.

No, unless something "urgent" comes up . . . Iliyah Sep 2019 #1

No, they tend to double down, so I expect a $70,000 party at the hotel. Mike 03 Sep 2019 #3
Well they did probably just double the liquor bill. dem4decades Sep 2019 #5

Perhaps he can raise a glass to Trump in his cell. Oh, wait - make that - "drink from the toilet in Trump's honor."

ran into him and he made some joke like, "Did you bring handcuffs?" I think that's the kind of guy Barr is. He navigated his confirmation hearing and barely made it through, but people were seriously trying to decide if he was someone who cared about his legacy enough to be a good AG or would throw it all away to protect Trump. Then when he is in a casual environment, you see these photos of him acting like one of the good ol' boys and mocking the few people we have who are actually trying to enforce our laws. So I expect him to have this party and look like he's having a great time just to spite his critics.
