Its the same game they played to paralyze Sessions. Now they are going after Barr. I think he has the strength to understand what is going on and ignore it.

https://thefederalist.com/2020/02/17/doj...elections/

"...The real investigators are closing in on the crooked cops. No wonder they’re freaking out and using their media friends to start helping them pretend all of a sudden that they care about “democracy” while using their power to subvert the presidential administration Americans elected in 2016. What Barr is doing is what “oversight” looks like: When unelected bureaucrats are called to publicly account for what they have done with the public purse, time, and trust.

Once the whole truth has finally come out, Congress needs to be thinking about how they are going to make sure this never happens again. They will not do that by making the Department of Justice even less accountable to elected officials, as Democrats are demanding. They will do it by slashing and burning the bureaucracy and its powers. Government by and for the people will perish from the earth if unelected officials are capable of weaponizing government against the people’s elected representatives. That’s what a banana republic really is. And we don’t want one here...."

It's all so apparent too. Yet the leftists have no problem with demonizing the very people who are trying to protect their own liberty. They just don't care, it's almost like they want to be subjugated.

As Ive always said---Democrats seek nothing more than to amass power. The more the better---and they will stop at nothing to get it. Zero shame. Thier ultimate goal is a single party government with an elite ruling class.

Yeah, I get that, the leadership is evil, but one would think at some point reason and logic would lead the rank and file to understand they are screwing themselves. They just can't be this stupid.

But, history is filled with examples of the masses allowing themselves to be led meekly to the killing grounds, gas chambers and slaughterhouses so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

The simple answer is he is uncontrollable. He doesn’t do what they tell him to do. It’s always been about that. As long as he’s there, they do not control us.

That's 2016 Trump. They managed to pull 2020 Trump onto the reservation. He wants expanded professional immigration and keeps hiring and endorsing GOP establishment swamp creatures. His stance on China has softened pretty significantly, too.

He's a false messiah. Not to say the other candidates are better, but he's not what everyone says he is. It's just that we've been so starved for good leadership over the last 50 years that he looks like an okay president.

Not really seeing how those address billionaires like George Soros and the Koch Brothers and multinational corporations being able to buy and sell politicians to work on their behalf. Political correctness especially couldn't have less to do with financial influence. Has he pushed for reforms to limit the influence of corporate lobbyists? Has he pushed for the repeal of Citizen's United? Has he pushed for ending dark money Super PACs? Maybe he has and I've just missed it. Obviously these would be things that people like McConnell would be against, since he was a plaintiff in a related case and had an amicus brief prepared on his behalf in support of Citizens United. So I'm genuinely curious what have I missed that Trump has attempted to do to stop the "elite ruling class" of this country?

So is all this code for he's done nothing to address any of that yet but will in his second term? Not sure I have any reason to believe that, especially since he hasn't appointed a single justice to the SC who would support overturning Citizens United, and Gorsuch has made it pretty clear he'd like to remove even more limits on financial influence.

Unfortunately, fixing that would take a constitutional convention, and if that happens they'll gut the Bill of Rights like a fish. Citizens United is technically right constitutionally. It's just a loophole that was never addressed.
You could also say America's culture would need to shift to build up the political will. We have far too many Cato Institute-level libertarians that think having a planned economy is okay as long as the government's a proxy for plutocrats, and those people aren't anywhere close to being financially influential.
