The second half of Trump's term would have been so much different had he fired all the swamp monsters in the DOJ and put people in who weren't political activists. He didn't. He still hasn't. The steal may not have even happened had people known that there were federal officers in the FBI who weren't Obama shadow government hacks who would throw them in prison for election fraud. Trump did nothing about it. it should have and would have been evident to him years ago that barr was a swamp monster too. He has criticized bar publicly about two times if that.
he still has said very little. Last week when Barr put his resignation in Trump released a nice tweet about it. is trump in on this? Is this all an act? I get more and more mad thinking about it. Let the down votes roll in, but think about this. It's too big of a screw up to just forget and look over. everyone wants to say Trump is playing 4D chess, well this could not have been overlooked if someone is so smart they're playing some long game and their four moves ahead of everybody.
Trump can only appoint people, Congress must confirm them to the post.
In other words, there is no way they will let Trump have his choice. He must always choose from a bag of serpents and hope the one he gets is too dumb to get in his way.
The only person he has ever chosen freely that is currently in Congress is Pence.
