A fascinating aspect of Donnie's pathology is the need to be vindictive to imperfect loyalty

[unblock]

Such as the possibility that he may fire Barr.

Not that it matters too much, they're both gone in 7 weeks anyway. But Barr saved Donnie's bacon and has been exactly the kind of crooked loyal toadie Donnie wants all his people to be.

But he didn't back him on the latest nonsense of the day, so he's royally pissed and may fire him for that.


Now look at what's going on regarding the hugely important Georgia senate runoffs. Republicans, seemingly with Donnie's blessings, are actually advocating self-sabotage by encouraging republicans to boycott the runoffs, which could cost them the senate.

Seems like a ridiculous political strategy, but remember, personal vengeance is more important to donnie than a good outcome for the Republican Party. In fact, he probably wants the story that Republican lost the senate because they didn't find a way to get Donnie another 4 years.

He's pissed about losing and needs to make someone pay. There's nothing special about being angry with democrats, so he's going to lash out against republicans.

It would be wonderful if his petulance cost them the senate!

1. And there's no such thing as perfect loyalty

The second someone wants something other than what Donnie wants it’s all over.

2. And it's yet another example of loyalty being completely one way for him

[90-percent]

3. Barr

djt has to be plotting a humiliating a humiliating end to Barr's position as attorney general. his tweet will almost write itself.

I don't know how djt will let Barr's comments stand? I predict it's going to be a below the belt tweet firing.

4. It would be even more wonderful if the Senate would

be lost by them without his petulance. Not that I won't take any help we can get, legal and constitutional of course.

5. Well, true.

Really want I'd love is for America to strongly support democrats with large majorities for at least a generation, as we did starting with fdr. But we seem a ways off from that.

But for now, I'll settle for Donnie being the instrument of at least short term damage to the Republican Party.

Who knows, this may be the beginning of a split in the party or other long-term damage. *that* would be great.

6. I Am Guessing This is the One Dog That Does Not Bark in the Night (Firing of Barr)

I hope I'm wrong. I'd love to see him fed to the sharks, although, actually, jettisoned by this one might be a slightly redeeming dot on that cv.

Barr seems to be one of the few actual sentient beings the yam allows in his circle, given how foreign such a quality is in his family and inner cult.

You'd think that would have been a non-starter for the yellow ass, but it wasn't.

Those GA senate seats are desperately needed!

7. I suspect that Barr might have an insurance policy (in that he likely knows where some of the bodies

are buried).

10. Barr is being criticized by Trump and will soon be on the outs for not sufficiently toeing the fraud

party line.

[Nitram]

8. I disagree. No one meets Donnie's paranoid standards for "perfect loyalty", and his most

loyal subjects ALL end up under the bus when Dump needs someone to blame for his latest failure.

[disalitervisum]

9. It's much deeper than that

T**** wants revenge on the whole world, not just people who fail his "standard of loyalty." Neither he, nor his rotten snot-nosed children give a single shit about any one specific person who crosses them. It makes no difference who, or in what capacity, or in any conceivable circumstance. The only thing that matters to them is getting their revenge.

11. Is donnie doing this as payback to Moscow Mitch for some reason?

[tinrobot]

12. He fires Barr and substitutes a sycophant "acting AG" who will arrest Biden.

I don't think it will happen, but it has probably crossed the orange loser's mind more than once.
