Former Trump Attorney General Bill Barr is taking fire from all sides after criticizing the former president while also calling the far-left wing of the Democrat Party ‘dangerous for the United States.'
While promoting his book, “One Damn Thing After Another: Memoirs of an Attorney General,” Barr has repeatedly stated he would not support Donald Trump during the GOP primary in 2024, if he were to run. This has angered many die hard Trump supporters, even though Barr has also stated he will support whoever is the GOP nominee.
The reason Barr says he will support Trump if he is the Republican Party choice, despite his preference for another GOP nominee, is because Barr strongly believes “the progressive [leftist] wing of the Democratic Party is dangerous for the United States.” This is also something Barr has thankfully repeated quite often in recent weeks.
However, when Barr told NBC's “Meet the Press” host Chuck Todd this same thing, Todd blew a proverbial gasket as shown by MRC NewsBusters: “You've said this quite a bit. It's an uncomfortable thing to hear from somebody who was needing to provide equal justice under the law as attorney general.”
See the MRC clip below:
The closeted liberal Todd expressed his faux outrage at Barr's statement, even though in 2014, when Barack Obama's hyper partisan attorney general was leaving office, Todd laughably gushed that “…he's a very non-political person….Eric Holder wasn't thinking about the politics of an issue….The guy wasn't political at all…”
MRC NewsBusters added:
On Sunday, Todd continued to admonish Barr: “You really think the left in this country is somehow more dangerous than – than some issues around the world?” Barr pushed back: “No, I just said in terms of the leadership of the country, I think they would be a dangerous choice for the United States.”
Despite being so “uncomfortable” with Barr labeling the left “dangerous,” only seconds earlier in the discussion, Todd had no problem comparing Trump to “totalitarian leaders” like Putin.

When challenged by Todd about how Barr could justify voting for Trump in 2024 against Joe Biden after Barr describing the former president's ‘temperamental' and ‘character issues,' in his book and interviews, Barr replied:
“Well, I think there are a lot of American people right now that might prefer being – having him [Trump] back in office than what we see under Biden.”
BINGO.

Of course Barr is correct, Pelosi and the rest of those far left wing liberal democrats are the greatest enemy this country faces today. If left to their own actions they will destroy our constitutional republic and replace it with their version of a socialist government, with them in control of course.
Chuck Todd like most major news people doesn’t have the intellectual capacity to see just how dangerous the Democrat Party has become to the the health and stability of the United States. Socialism always severely damages any country that tries it to the point of human suffering. Capitalism allows for upward mobility and is the engine for human advancement in technology, medicine, and living conditions. It is American capitalism that is literally proping up the rest of the world. When we fall, everybody else is going down with us.
