    "According to a report in the Wall Street Journal, former Attorney
    General Bill Barr spends a great deal of time in his new book trashing
    Donald Trump and urging the Republican Party to look elsewhere for a new leader.

    Along the way, Barr suggested that there is something wrong with the
    former president that should preclude him from ever holding office again.

    In Barr's forthcoming book, “One Damn Thing After Another,” he describes his battles with the former president and dismissed all of Trump's
    claims of election fraud, writing, "The election was not ‘stolen.' Trump
    lost it.”

    According to the Journal, Barr claims Trump "Lost his grip" after the
    2020 election results showed he had been defeated, with the former AG
    charging, "The absurd lengths to which he took his ‘stolen election’
    claim led to the rioting on Capitol Hill.

    Barr added the former president “shown he has neither the temperament
    nor persuasive powers to provide the kind of positive leadership that is needed,”

    The former attorney general added that Trump might have pulled off a
    2020 win if he had “just exercised a modicum of self-restraint,
    moderating even a little of his pettiness.”"

    Amazing. This could be the first time I agreed with Bill Barr.
