Maybe it's the "...then I'll take everything else down with me" bunker psychology
But is he really? Yeah, he's replaced people (for a total of 6-7 weeks), but I don't see him trying to burn down the country. Even if he fires Barr, what effect will that have on the nation? Nothing.
The only thing burning is his reputation, and sadly, the good work he's done in the Middle East is going unnoticed.
He's putting the axe on the most important pillar of any democracy, namely the concept to accept a loss of an election and not tell your gullible supporters that the election was "stolen", without ever presenting evidence that survives a day in court. A democracy can only live and survive when a certain set of rules is accepted by everyone. He's pissed on those rules, and I doubt they can be cleaned easily. They'll stink for decades. You'll maybe find some "but they did it, too" stuff, but there's nothing that comes close in magnitude.
What could be a more effective way to burn down a country than this?
Bull shit. A democracy can only survive as long as people feel they can trust the results of an election. But you ARE correct that to survive requires a certain set of rules be accepted by everyone. Apparently you missed the part where the 4 states in question did NOT do that, and changed the rules right before election day. THEY are the ones who pissed on the rules.
It's mind numbing to hear how uninformed the Left is.

He simply exhausted his options, in a close race.
It wasn’t a close race.
Biden won by a landslide, according to Trump’s own words.
Trump has never said that. That is a bare faced lie and you know it.

To my thinking the Trump Administration's foreign policy in the Middle East is just as problematic and empty as any that of its recent predecessors.
Gwynne Dyer sums it up rather well:
If there's nothing new about it, then tell me why the fuck nobody else did it?

I still don't really get why there isn't a greater outcry from Democrats and Republicans alike over this
I like to think it's because there is such widespread fedupedness with this guy that nobody -- nooobody, in any party, wants to slow his exit. Everybody's like, "No roadblocks! NO ROADBLOCKS!"
I'll tell you who is about to be fed up. It's the 75 million Americans currently being made fun of, who are getting sick of the corruptness of the Left, and getting just as sick of all the stupid lies being spread by the Left and the self righteous, self important sheep on the Left. The level of ignorant bull shit being spewed here by the "Biden won" morons is just staggering.

Nope. Trump said in 2016 that winning with 306 electoral votes is a landslide. That’s how much Biden won with. So in Trump’s own words, Biden’s 306 votes was a landslide. See quote below from an interview he gave on Fox News Sunday in Nov 2016:
"We had a massive landslide victory, as you know, in the Electoral College. I guess the final numbers are now at 306.”

I’m done trying to convince you of reality. You said Biden didn’t win. He did. You said I’ve been 100% wrong, I showed you I was right since my predictions in July. You said Trump didn’t make the claim about what a landslide victory is, I showed you he did. The sun is hot. Water is wet. Call me when you’ve accepted reality otherwise trying to convince you is a fool’s errand.

Ok you make the claim that Trump said Biden won by a landslide, then defend your lie by taking another lie - that Biden actually won all those votes - nd tacking a comment that Trump made that had absolutely nothing to do with Biden, and you expect me to think you're clever....
You are sick.

Biden DID NOT FUCKING WIN!! Once again with the "agree with me or else " bull shit. Son, I can't help it that you're a stubborn git. But im getting gad damned tired of you telling me Biden won by a landslide when he did nothing of the kind.

@Larry said in Trump trying to get the GOP to sign on to Texas’s useless lawsuit:
That's not what I said. Let me simplify it for you. There are so many things that are impossible to do that would have to have been done for Biden to get the votes you're being told that he got that to believe he achieved the impossible not once, but dozens of times, can only be believed by a person with their brain disconnected. The odds of it all happening the way it is being claimed was recently stated as being one chance in one quadrillion to the 4th power.
I believe people can hit the lotto too. But I am not willing to be pushed into believing that one of the most corrupt politicians in the most corrupt political party hit a 1 in 1 quadriion to the 4th power lotto.
You should really have a look at how they arrived at that number. The assumptions behind it are pretty ridiculous.

57, I heard.
The Democratic party has tried for four years through dishonorable and deceitful measures to overturn the 2016 election - anything they could think of. It is by no means delusional to believe they cheated in this one. To what degree is unknown. Sadly it does not seem to be provable.

There was no other. Nevertheless your request is irrelevant.
The Gulf States rely on two sources of income to survive and obtain US made armaments to help fend off the Iranian menace on their doorstep. One is oil, the other is tourism. As you well know the price of oil is in the toilet and has been since 2014. That means tourism has to be relied upon to bring in cash. Israeli citizens have tourist Euros/dollars to spend in the tourist attractions of Dubai. Gulf states want those tourist Euros but have no direct relations with Israel. Enter Israel's best friend and leading supplier of arms to Arab Saudi Arabia and other Sunni Arab states, the USA, to broker a Tourism exchange and in return supply some arms to the Gulf states. Makes for good press back home in the USA.
Israeli tourists get to celebrate Hanukkah in 5 star hotels in Dubai amid a global pandemic. Thank you low global oil market. Little to do with astute US foreign policy.

All of which is, while well and good, is completely beside the point. Regardless of the circumstances that gave opportunity, you are still left with the fact that had someone else been president, we would still be providing arms to Dubai, and trying to kiss the "Palestinians' " ass.
