Or Trump is throwing Barr under the bus, one piece at a time.
Twitter LinkBarr said in statement last night that Berman was stepping down, Berman said he wasn’t. Now Barr says in new letter that he asked Trump to fire Berman and that Trump did so. Now Trump says he’s not involved.

You collect primary source data, and you judge him on the time period he lived in, according to the moral standards of his time. No one from the 18th century is going to have what is considered to be a progressive opinion today, human evolution was completely different 250 years ago.
I can't forsee Trump winning another election, he's too much of a right wing fruit loop, to the point Republican moderates have started Super Pacs to campaign for Biden. If Florida swings Democrat in November, he's pretty much done.
Twitter LinkRemarkable moment on @MSNBC: A peaceful protester wearing a t-shirt that said "I Can't Breathe" is arrested outside the location of Trump's Tulsa rally. She was sitting on the ground. She said she had a ticket for the rally. She was still taken away.

Well, Thomas Paine might come close, but he was also considered a radical in his own time. Washington wasn't considered a racist at the time, but even he realized he was eventually going to be on the wrong side of history on slavery.
Woodrow Wilson, on the other hand, was quite the racist even for his time.
Dark does not mean deep.
How about this: pretty much everyone in the past were horrible, racist assholes. EVERYONE. So lets learn about them in the context of their time, and see what lessons we can learn from them to make sure we never become those people again.
That's fantastic. I can't wait to see what happens... oh wait, I know what will happen. The Democrats will howl bloody murder, and the Republicans will walk around with their fingers in their ears screaming "LA-LA-LA-LA" while ignoring the whole thing.
- Barr tries to trick Berman into quitting
- Berman says no
- Barr tries to fire Berman
- Finds out he can't
- Barr then says that Trump fired him
- Trump says ' Nope, I have nothing to do with it, talk to Barr.'
- Berman still has his job

A thought-provoking video from a Youtuber I just discovered -
"So you've come to the end now alive but dead inside."
A lot of people couldn't see Trump winning the first time, but he still did. I won't breathe a sigh of relief until the final results come in after the election.
God, I knew Trump was worse than Nixon after his first year. It's just now that he knows the Republicans in the Senate will let him get away with everything, he'll try literally anything.
