Trump will attempt to influence Barr's decision on releasing report?

Perhaps he already has?

The question is, how far will Barr go to appease him?

There is a definite conflict of interest between the two.

Barr wants everyone to believe that he is an independent actor.

Trump cannot help himself from interfering in any matter, legal or not, if he feels threatened. The way he mentioned "400" pages, he acts as if Mr Barr has already given him the report or a briefing on the report ?

Perhaps someone should ask him if has read the report?

After all, what is one more lie?

Barr knows what he has to do--bend over backwards to protect his boss.
