Barr’s recusal from Epstein case should give Democrats the willies

Attorney General William Barr recused himself Monday from the Jeffrey Epstein child molesting case, based on a vague reference to having worked for a law firm many years ago that had connections to Epstein. According to the Washington Examiner:

Attorney General William Barr revealed Monday he recused himself from the Justice Department’s prosecution of alleged child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, who was arrested over the weekend and formally charged that morning.

Hmmm. On the surface, it sounds like the exit from the case of another Attorney General, Jeff Sessions, who recused himself from the investigation into the Russian collusion allegations against President Trump, based on his own light contacts with the Russians as Senator. Now Democrats can have a field day against Trump with the investigation entirely in their hands, right?

Don’t think so. On the surface it may appear to be bad news for President Trump – another rat fleeing a sinking ship? – and the left may be secretly cheering.  But if they are, they don’t know Barr very well.
