Nothing like telling Trump World the pithy truth — in language that even they can understand ...
'He's toast': Bill Barr 'shocked' by Trump's 'damning' Espionage Act charges
by David Edwards, Raw Story — June 11, 2023
"And I think the counts under the Espionage Act that he willfully retained those documents are solid counts," Barr added. "But I do think that even half of what Andy McCarthy said, which is if even half of it is true, then he's toast. I mean, it's a pretty, it's a very detailed indictment, and it's very, very damning."
Ten simple words MAGA needs to hear: “If even half of it is true, then he's toast.”

It started out under the Presidential Records Act and the archives trying to retrieve documents that Trump had no right to have," Barr replied. "But it quickly became clear that what the government was really worried about were these classified and very sensitive documents."
Barr said he was "shocked by the degree of sensitivity of these documents and how many there were."
"And so the government's agenda was to get those, protect those documents, and get them out," he continued. "And I think it was perfectly appropriate to do that. It was the right thing to do."
Here’s the link to the “toasty” Fox Interview given by Bill Barr this morning, regarding the Special Counsel Indictment. The video is hosted by Raw Story, on YouTube.
The Hill summarizes the Barr “hot take” interview like this:
Former Attorney General Bill Barr said Sunday that presenting former President Trump as a victim of a “witch hunt” is “ridiculous” in reaction to the narrative presented by most in the GOP that the charges are politically motivated.
[...]
Barr said Sunday that the government acted responsibly in looking into Trump’s handling of classified material, adding that it was Trump who “acted irresponsibly.”
“He was totally wrong that he had the right to have those documents,” he said. “Those documents are among the most sensitive secrets that the country has.”

Can’t wait to see how Chris Christie tears into Traitor Trump in his Town Hall event (June 12). That is sure to have some “quotable” assessments of the former Bossman as well. From yet another Republican refusing to drink the Trump Kool-aid any longer.
Apparently high-octane sugary-punch, with a side of “burnt toast,” aren’t an appealing entree anymore. Who knew?
