Barr had 'intense' meeting with Trump after AG's interview undercutting voter fraud claims: Sources

[groundloop]

Source: ABC News

While at the White House for meetings Tuesday, Attorney General Bill Barr had a meeting with President Donald Trump following an interview with the Associated Press in which Barr disclosed that the Department of Justice has not uncovered evidence of widespread voter fraud that would change the election results, multiple sources familiar with the matter tell ABC News.

Barr spent roughly two and a half hours on White House grounds on Tuesday for what White House and Department of Justice officials previously said was a pre-planned meeting with White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows.

However, sources told ABC News that once Barr was in the building for meetings, Trump wanted to see him.

One source briefed on the meeting described Barr's interaction with the president as "intense," but would not elaborate on any additional details about the content of their discussion.

1. I would like to know

Just how long one individual with a fantasy is going to be able to inflict it on an entire nation.

On Inauguration Day we will be moving on. This person will be irrelevant as repair, rebuild, and renew will suck all the air out of the room.

[Lonestarblue]

3. I would like to know how long reporters are going to keep asking stupid questions about it.

Some keep asking if Trump really knows that he has lost. Of course, he knows! He’s just using his legal cases as a way to con people out of money. And the question about whether he will leave office when the time comes is just as stupid. He will leave either peacefully or be escorted out, but he will have no choice. Our media has gone to hell in the last few years. There are a few who still report real news, but very few.

Over the past several days, WaPo has had several articles about what her Christmas decorations say about Melania, why Trump supporters think Melania is the most elegant First Lady in history, where Jared and Ivanka will go after DC, what Ivanka’s political future will be, what Ivanka thinks about her women’s empowerment program that accomplished very little. These pieces are fluff. Who among WaPo’s subscriber base actually cares what Melania or Ivanka thinks? Media like WaPo still are catering to the Trump base. Writers like Jennifer Rubin and Eugene Robinson do not, but they are published alongside the absolute lies of Hugh Hewitt and a couple of other writers who are quick to justify anything Trump. Aarrgh!

31. You echo my frustrations exactly!

I'm so very very VERY tired of the media being played like a fiddle by Trump while he laughs all the way to the bank.

[Gothmog]

2. The fact that trump was upset makes me smile

[Hekate]

24. I know. Are there by any chance tapes? Did Barr scream back? Oh please, let Barr have lost it too...

Or did Barr just sweat through his suit? That’d be okay too.

[lanlady]

4. Trump probably tore Barr a new one

Couldn't happen to a more deserving creature. The Trump cult devours its own.

[NCjack]

23. Trump's behavior in debate #1 with Biden gives us an idea what happens when Trump rips.

[milestogo]

5. I'll bet Trump threw mashed potatoes and diet coke at Barr's head.

[beachbumbob]

6. barr is now the now the enemy in the eyes of the trump crime family

there is no middle ground, you either are fellow criminal with the trumps or you are the enemy.

[Evolve Dammit]

14. agree. They will eat their own in a heartbeat. Cannibal cult 45.

[onetexan]

34. Thats what u get for being the con's henchman

No respect, no loyalty, no praise except u are expected to give these things to him.

[NoMoreRepugs]

7. I so look forward to the day where EVERYTHING isn't

about diaperDon and his idiotic minions.

[calimary]

22. I look forward to the day we never hear that voice again.

At least, not one that continues to generate lies, threats, and exhort outright sedition and treason. Unfortunately we’ll always be plagued with recordings from all his many past rants. That’s now part of the historical record that we’re shackled to, from here onward. But I’m thinking of whenever it might be - that he’s no longer generating any new ones. That day will be a very good and healing day.

[NoMoreRepugs]

28. Agree - guess I was thinking small steps versus the whole enchilada.

[mpcamb]

8. So, is the AG looking into a new line of work? Or riding out the next 7 weeks?

My guess- "Clean out your desk, Bill".

[DemUnleashed]

9. Kayleigh's Nose

Add another inch to Kayleigh's nose. She lied at the press hearing yesterday and said Trump met with Meadows but didn't meet with Barr!

[iscooterliberally]

10. The Butterball Bully Brawl

I'm so glad we didn't have to watch that. I can't wait until those two delusional assholes are gone forever. The world would have been better off if neither of those two parasites had ever been born.

[Marcuse]

11. Is the corrupt deep toilet guy coming back?

https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2018/11/democrats-demand-info-on-acting-attorney-general-matthew-whitaker-masculine-toilet-scam

[machoneman]

15. Its three delusional assholes, not two. Kayleigh is in that crowd too.

[Evolve Dammit]

17. good term! Made me laugh. Thanks. Like Sumo wrestling only no rules?

[vlyons]

12. The day Joe won the election is the day Trump became irrelrvant to me

and Trump has only gotten smaller and smaller in the rear-view mirror. When Joe won, I fully expected that there would be less and less chit-chat about Trump's latest ugly outrage, and more and more discussion about Biden's picks for his administration.

[apnu]

16. Lame duck packing the courts and all this pardon stuff should concern you.

Trump's relevance is diminished, but it is still important and will impact us for decades. Keep your guard up, and stay engaged.

Trump becomes almost totally irrelevant on January 20th 2020 at 12:01 PM Eastern. But then he's still relevant. He carries state secrets in his head and contacts. He will be a security liability for America for the remainder of his life.

[SayItLoud]

13. My 2 Cents:

tRUMP would like desperately to overturn the election. And, will do anything legal or illegal to try and accomplish that. Barring (pardon the pun) that tRUMP wants to grift, KKKon ever $ out of his base. He will declare "I'm running for POTUS in 2024) and "use" the 150-200 Million $ he's scamming from his base to fund his lifestyle. Fly his tRUMP jet, hold rallies in places he hopes to do business, travel internationally under the guise of something or other. Turkey, Russia, anyplace he has sucked up to and needs to do business. Everything will be paid for by his sucker Cult base. When that $ runs low he'll keep appealing during "rallies" and then if he's not in jail in 2023 say he changed his mind and want's Ivanka to run in his place. Or if he's got a massive polling lead actually run. Just sayin...Follow the $ with this guy and it tells his plans and strategy.

[backroadblast]

18. the rat fur was flying

i mean "intense" rat fur flying.

[Aerator]

19. Giving his you never let anyone know what your thinking outside of the family

[Hotler]

20. I don't think Barr got his ass chewed. More like it took him 2 1/2 hours to

explain to the orange one that they can't pull the coup with vote fraud. If he wants this coup, he'll have to order the military to ........

[lastlib]

30. tRump wouldn't have listened to that for more than a minute.

He would've spent the next two hours screaming obscenities at little billy. It's how he rolls.

[IsItJustMe]

21. You know your screwed when someone of Barr's character and caliber seems sane and reasonable.

[calimary]

25. No kidding.

[NCjack]

26. Should be obvious to Barr that he will not get a pardon. He should get even

as soon as Pres. Biden's AG is confirmed. Call the AG and offer to be the rat that flames Trump's ass.

[Oscarthegreat]

27. My hear just bleeds for Barr

When you lie with dogs, you get fleas. When you sleep with the devil you wake up with horns. I could come up with a few more metaphors for Barr's situation, but in the meantime, he should expect to be fired in the next few days, and/or have he and his family targeted by the MAGAS.

[jalan48]

29. Barr knows where the skeletons are in Epstein's closet. I'd guess he's letting Trump know that.

[jcgoldie]

32. Everytime that we have assumed Barr to be at odds with Trump...

... He has doubled down on covering Trump’s ass...

Don’t swing at the football this time Charlie Brown...

[Muriel]

33. I would also imagine the bribes for pardons came up.

They may both be mentioned in the documents.
