Attorney General William Barr was mocked for "playing dumb" after he claimed to be unaware of what state laws said on the legality of voting twice after President Donald Trump appeared to tell people to try and commit the crime.

Appearing on CNN on Wednesday, Barr said the president was trying to make the point that election monitoring was not good enough to prevent people from voting at polling stations if they already cast their ballots by mail.

But when he was pressed on the fact that such an action would be illegal, he said he was unaware of what state laws said about the legality of voting twice.

"I don't know what the law in the particular state says, and when that vote becomes final," Barr told CNN.

And this ladies and gentlemen is the United States Attorney General.

1. Should anyone really expect anything but this from Benedict Donald's consigliare,

William the Barrbarian?

[JohnnyRingo]

2. He's really working the "Attorney" side of Attorney General.

Just like when a public defender has to make a case for someone who committed a crime in front of witnesses and cameras, he's stretching the bounds of reality to help his client. Unfortunately, that's not in his job description.

3. While DFT is kissing Putin's heiny, Bill is licking DFT's

They will both have the necessary skills for prison.

[Laha]

6. There are some pretty rude overtones to that comment

But it still cracked me up. Seems rather appropriate, in a very inappropriate way.

[RainCaster]

7. They both know how to worship dictators, that skill set...

... will serve them well in prison.

4. Bill Barr is corruption out in the open,

in slo-motion and keeps getting away with it. It's really quite amazing and a sign of no accountability that is crumbling our democracy.

5. trump & his Gang of STUPID. they want Maggats to

Vote twice so they can call Fraud that they implemented .

[Illumination]

12. Glenn Kirschner (prosecutor for 30 years), said they WOULD NOT be able to do that!

[LiberalLovinLug]

8. Yup, Trump and Barr WANT their supporters to try and vote twice

Either enough will get away with it, amid chaos in underfunded post offices, to put Trump on top
or many will get caught, whose fate Trump and Barr care not a whiff, and Trump can then claim his prediction came true, massive fraud that cancels the results. Barr would rubber stamp that immediately after the tweet.

11. I don't think he was playing. I think he's gone over it in his mind and he thinks there's ...

daylight there, and he's seriously thinking about arguing 3/5th of a vote for PoC.
