AG William Barr: Democrats Are ‘Sabotaging’ Trump Administration

AG Barr is 100 percent correct, of course. However, only the American people can put a stop to this insanity. American voters must throw the corrupt Democrats out of office in 2020.

William Barr: Democrats’ investigations into Trump are political harassment meant to ‘sabotage’ his presidency

By USA Today, November 16, 2019:

Attorney General William Barr said Friday that President Donald Trump’s political opponents have pursued a “scorched earth, no-holds-barred resistance” meant to “sabotage” his presidency.

“The pursuit of scores of investigations and an avalanche of subpoenas is meant to incapacitate” the administration, Barr said in a biting address to the conservative Federalist Society.

The attorney general, in a full-throated defense of the president, said the political “harassment” contravenes the intent of the Constitution’s framers who, he said, meant to provide the chief executive with sweeping authority.

“I am convinced that the deck has been stacked against the executive,” Barr said.

Barr’s remarks came as Trump has been swept up in an impeachment inquiry over allegations he pressured Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to open investigations into political rival and former Vice President Joe Biden and his son, who served on the board of a Ukrainian energy company.

Before Friday, Barr had said little publicly about the impeachment proceedings, suggesting he might be attempting to distance himself from Trump. But his remarks left no doubt he stands with the president.

He lamented a “steady encroachment of executive authority” that he claimed had “substantially weakened the institution of the presidency.” And he said Congress has “drowned” the administration with demands for testimony and documents.
