Attorney General William Barr is now accusing congressional Democrats of “sabotage” and “using every tool and maneuver” they have to resist Trump and cast doubt on whether his presidency is legitimate.

In a fiery speech before the conservative Federalist Society on Friday, Barr said Trump’s opponents are using every tool they can to intentionally sabotage his administration.

“I deeply admire the American presidency as a political and constitutional institution,” he said. “Unfortunately over the past several decades, we have seen a steady encroachment on executive authority by the other branches of the government.”

He also discussed the constant attempts to derail Trump’s appointments, claiming Dems want to “incapacitate” the executive branch.

“Immediately after President Trump won election, opponents inaugurated what they called the Resistance,” Barr said. “They essentially see themselves as engaged in a war, to cripple by any means necessary, a duly elected government.”

The attorney general defended Trump on multiple fronts, and castigated Democrats in Congress over their investigations, multiple subpoenas, as well as court rulings against the administration.

“The sheer volume of what we see today – the pursuit of scores of parallel investigations through an avalanche of subpoenas – is plainly designed to incapacitate the executive branch and, indeed, is touted as such,” Barr said. “While the president has certainly thrown out the traditional Beltway playbook and punctilio, he was upfront about what he was going to do and the people decided they wanted him to serve as president.”

While Barr’s speech came as House Democrats were holding their first public hearings in an impeachment inquiry against Trump for what they argue are abuses of power and obstruction of Congress, Barr didn’t mention impeachment in his speech.
