Despite Bill Barr’s repeatedly voicing concerns about Donald Trump, he has now said he will vote for him again this November
Bill Barr has claimed Donald Trump often suggested executing his political rivals during heated moments of his four-year tenure in the White House.
Former White House communications director Alyssa Farah Griffin told The View back in December that Mr Trump once called for a staff member to be put to death for leaking a story about the then-president going down to a bunker during Black Lives Matter protests in summer 2020.
Former Trump administration attorney general Mr Barr was asked about the claims during an interview on CNN last week.
“He would say things similar to that on occasions to blow off steam. But I wouldn’t take them literally every time he did it,” Mr Barr said, adding: “At the end of the day, it wouldn’t be carried out and you could talk sense into him.”
So either we're counting on people to refuse the president's orders, or we're hoping the Trump is more mature than he lets on?
How about not electing people who would even entertain such an idea in the first place?
Thank goodness there isn't a publicly accessible, written version of a plan to replace everyone with sycophants right here: www dot project2025 dot org
And lawyers working for the dude telling SCOTUS that assassinating rivals should be legal for the president since it should be considered an "official act"...
That ship has sailed. But the US still has a president rather than a dictator. For now. So, a better question is, how about we limit the authority of the president, in accordance with the Constitution!? This country was literally founded on the idea that a king (or queen) has too much power and the Leaders need to be accountable to the People.
