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.

    The history books tell a very different story. Again, naive.

    Your refusal to read history doesn’t make your fantasies true.

    “I promise you if the baddies”

    And you don’t see any irony in writing out things like that in the same comment that you deign to call someone ‘naive’ in?

    I’m armed and trained as well buddy.

    So that’s a “no, I’m not in the military, but I’m an American gun-owner”. Yes, I think that’s probably readily apparent to most people reading this conversation.

    You still can’t even define “the baddies” (what a hilariously inane concept to begin with), let alone propose anything else than vague threats of violence aimed at “them”. Unions and politicians actually achieve things, while you sit there, terminally online, shining your Walmart bought guns and fantasizing of violence.

    It really isn’t the fault of others that you refuse to read history. “Facts don’t care about your feelings” as I’ve heard some other equally rhetorically talented American say.

    Authoritarianism doesn’t work. Unions do, like other forms of cooperative movements which utilise the extremely broad economic and political power that the masses have, when organised.

    Never heard of Tank Man either, I suppose?

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonviolent_resistance

    The “Singing revolution” (1989–1991) in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, led to the three Baltic countries’ restoration of independence from the Soviet Union in 1991

    Recently, nonviolent resistance has led to the Rose Revolution in Georgia. Research shows that nonviolent campaigns diffuse spatially. Information on nonviolent resistance in one country could significantly affect nonviolent activism in other countries.

    There’s a whole list of hundreds of examples from before the beginning of our calendar to modern day. I stress, once again; you refusing to read history doesn’t make your fantasies true. Those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
