Stupid Trump stuff

Politicus USA - In a new interview with CBS News correspondent Catherine Herridge, Attorney General William Barr was making jokes about his decision to drop the criminal case against former White House national security adviser Michael Flynn. “When history looks back on this decision, how do you think it will be written?” Barr was asked. The attorney general – apparently thinking the destruction of the rule of law is funny – responded with a chuckle, “Well, history is written by the winners. So it largely depends on who’s writing the history.”

Washington Post -President Trump on Friday denigrated former attorney general Jeff Sessions as a “total disaster” as he recounted during a television interview that he nominated Sessions for the position even though he did not think the former senator from Alabama was “equipped” for it.

Trump said he felt obligated to give the top Justice Department job to Sessions because of his strong support during the 2016 presidential campaign.“I didn’t want to make him attorney general, but he was the first senator to endorse me, so I felt a little bit of an obligation,” Trump said on Fox News’s “Fox & Friends.” “He came to see me four times, just begging me to be attorney general. He wasn’t, to me, equipped to be attorney general, but he just wanted it, wanted it, wanted it.”
