BETHESDA, Maryland — Attorney General William Barr on Thursday proved unable to give honest answers to a drive-thru window at a Bethesda, Maryland, Arby’s restaurant.
Barr, who drove up to the window just after noon, appeared evasive and halting after the drive-thru attendant asked to take his order.
“I cannot recall what I would like to order at this time,” Barr said, according to the attendant.
When pressed repeatedly to name a sandwich, drink, or side order that he preferred, Barr stonewalled, the attendant said.
“The questions I was asking him couldn’t have been clearer,” the attendant told reporters. “I asked him if he wanted to order a Smokehouse Brisket sandwich. He refused to give me a yes-or-no answer.”
“I came away feeling that he had been less than candid,” the attendant said.
Speaking through an official spokesperson later in the day, Barr said that he would never appear at Arby’s again.
