I don't either, but I also know Trump is only human and he has put his trust in the wrong people quite a few times in the last 4 years, so it's not exactly an uncommon theme..

Trump was new to Washington DC. He had to get a feel for all the people, so I do find it weird the barr would still be in that position if they weren't on the same team, but still this administration has been no stranger to really bad picks....
