Barr Investigating If Obama Administration Forced Trump to Be Lifelong Lying Conman and Racist Idiot

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Earlier this year, during Senate testimony, William Barr — Attorney General and designer of President Trump’s latest model of handbags designed to carry water for as long is as necessary — sent shock waves through the Hill when he said he believed “spying did occur” on the Trump campaign in 2016. Barr would later walk back just how forcefully he was making the claim, though he said he was trying to get his “arms around” everything that transpired in the Mueller investigation.

Barr said he thinks it’s a “big problem” when campaigns spied on.

It has long been asserted without any evidence by Trump that the Obama administration spied on his campaign. However, even the last attorney general stopped short of ever accusing the Obama White House of malfeasance, and in fact in the two years since taking office, the theory that Obama “spied” on Trump has been shot down by officials in both political parties. Whatever Barr’s impetus for opening the new investigation, apparently he isn’t content to just open one; Barr is opening another investigation into the Obama administration.

“What I think everyone, every single American citizen, wants to know is something very simple,” Barr told reporters coming back from his lunch break today, “and that’s whether or not the previous presidential administration did anything to force the current president to be a duplicitous, lifelong conman and racist idiot. I will not rest until these questions are answered.”

Come to think of it, by taking his job seriously, working hard every day to promote his nation on the world stage and applying his vast knowledge as a constitutional scholar, Barry actually is guilty as charged.

Lock him up!

Wouldn’t surprise me if this particular Attorney General hadn’t given it a great adding thought. He’s trump’s lapdog. And he may have noticed that his boss pushes any and all blame off of himself and onto his enemies, political and otherwise.
