before Barr ever saw any part of the results of Mueller's investigation, and he wrote only what he wanted people to believe the report says. And I also think he shut Mueller down before the investigation was finished.

a present from someone in Dear Leader's inner circle - Mulvaney?

The 2 days was so people who believe that Obama was born in Kenya could believe that Barr read and understood the ???? page document.

I sure hope somebody has a bunch of thumb drives with copies of the report, cause I bet the hard copy has probably left the building.

That would have made it a lot easier for him to write up the summary so quickly.

Rosenstein explained it, they have to remove any identifying info in the report that would name innocent people who gave evidence or testimony. Adam Schiff says they have until "next Tuesday."
