WASHINGTON Attorney General William P. Barr on Friday vigorously defended President Trumps use of executive authority and suggested that House Democrats were subverting the will of voters by exploring whether to remove the president from office for abusing his power.
Mr. Trump campaigned on a vow to upend Washington, and voters were aware of his agenda when they elected him president, Mr. Barr said.
While the president has certainly thrown out the traditional Beltway playbook and punctilio, he was up front about what he wanted to do and the people decided they wanted him to serve as president, Mr. Barr said in a speech at a conference hosted by the Federalist Society, a conservative legal group influential in Republican politics.
Mr. Trumps opponents essentially see themselves as engaged in a war to cripple by any means necessary a duly elected government, Mr. Barr added.

Barr is so full of shit if you gave him a laxative there'd be little left.
Will of the voters my ass. More a quirk of the electoral college.
