During the second January 6th hearing, Bill Bar debunked Donald Trump’s “fantastical and malicious election falsehoods with a derision that bordered on outright contempt,” sbg1 writes. His testimony was compelling—and infuriating.
Bill Barr did not think much of Donald Trump’s lies about the 2020 election. According to his videotaped testimony before the House select committeehow those lies resulted in the storming of the Capitol on January 6, 2021, Trump’s former Attorney General told Trump this to his face.
“I never saw any evidence whatsoever to sustain those allegations,” Eric Herschmann, a White House attorney for Trump, said. Bill Stepien, Trump’s campaign manager, testified that in the days after the election, as votes were counted and key states were called for Joe Biden, he had concluded that Trump’s prospects were “very, very, very bleak”—a conclusion he shared with the former President when he told him that he, in fact, had no more than a “five to ten per cent” chance of actually winning.
It’s not hard to decide which side to take in the contest between Team Normal and Team Rudy. The former New York mayor was effectively portrayed, on Monday, as a drunken buffoon who pushed Trump to claim victory on Election Night when it was obvious he had not won, and who offered worse and worse advice as the weeks dragged on and the courtroom defeats piled up. In Trump, Giuliani had a more-than-willing accomplice, as the testimony of Trump’s own former advisers so damningly showed.
