The fact that Trump would gleefully fleece his own flock tells you a lot about him. But I'm not real sympathetic to people who would allow themselves to be conned by this obvious conman.

Incredibly violent. This is sick.

The worker's family was also getting harassed, Mr Sterling added. The unnamed man had been threatened with a noose and accused of treason, Mr Sterling said, after transferring a report on ballot batches to a county computer so he could read it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shows how some people read different conclusions into articles. He's right, Barr didn't say there was no fraud. Most election officials have said the same thing. What he did say, like you mention, and all election officials have also said....it's not significant. It's over, move on.

Heidi Stirrup, an ally of top Trump adviser Stephen Miller, was quietly installed at the Justice Department as a White House liaison a few months ago. She was told within the last two weeks to vacate the building after top Justice officials learned of her efforts to collect insider information about ongoing cases and the department’s work on election fraud, the people said.

Barr may be able to bend or distort the truth, but he can't make up lies like Rudy. Not good enough for Trump.
