Bar Trump is one of the most prominently polarizing leaders of the era. The bar, considered a supporter of Trump, has a long list of critics.
Donald Trump’s former Attorney General William Barr.
Former US Attorney General William Barr recently caused an uproar with his interview with ABC News correspondent Jonathan Carl’s upcoming book. He has called former President Donald Trump’s claims about fraud in last year’s election as “nonsense”. He described how Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell pressured William Barr to discredit Trump’s claims of fraud.
Bar Trump is one of the most prominently polarizing leaders of the era. He has a long list of critics who accuse him of allowing the US Justice Department to be used to advance Trump’s personal political agenda. The bar has said in a new statement that Trump’s 2020 election claims were hollow. This claim is in stark contrast to his previous statements. In an interview to CNN in September 2020, he had said that mail-in ballots could lead to election fraud. Barr also raised questions about the security of mail-in ballots during his testimony at a US Congressional hearing.
‘Bar’s statement no longer makes sense’
Eli Honig, who wrote the forthcoming book ‘How Bill Barr Broke the Prosecutor’s Code and Corrupted the Justice Department’, said, ‘It is better that Barr say nothing now, because the time for such statements is over. After months of propaganda, they are now saying this, which has no meaning now. William Barr, on the other hand, is also falling prey to criticism from his former boss, ie Trump.
Trump reprimanded
Trump rebuked his former attorney general, reiterating his baseless claims, saying, ‘The weakness of the bar helped cover up the 2020 presidential election rigging, the biggest crime of the century!’ Trump supporters believe in such claims. When asked why Bar Ko now speaks about Trump’s false election claims? To this Bar replied, ‘People were writing about this, so I put my stand.’ Barr had resigned a month before the end of his term, leaving Barr Trump on futile attempts to reverse Trump’s election.
New statement told political
The Democrat Party has called this new statement political. He says that Barr wants to rehabilitate his image badly damaged during Trump’s tenure. The party is detailing William Barr’s election campaign last year for mail-in votes and voter confidence-diminishing statements about the election. He is blaming the bar like Trump.
Those who know Bar personally believe that the former attorney general is not trying to do any image rehabilitation with his recent remarks. Jonathan Turley, a professor of constitutional law at George Washington University, said Barr is not concerned with how he is portrayed by critics in the media. But times are doing this for the sake of establishing the facts properly for history. In a post-election statement to news agency AP, Bar had dismissed any notion of widespread election fraud. Due to this, he has become completely isolated between the former president and his supporters.
distanced himself from Trump’s controversies
According to Carl’s forthcoming book, Barr told him that then-Senate Majority Leader McConnell had urged him to speak publicly against Trump’s attempt to reverse the election results that began in mid-November. The former attorney general has made public comments in recent weeks, distancing himself from some of Trump’s controversies. He said he was not aware of the issue of confiscation of communications from Democratic lawmakers, nor had he discussed it with Trump.
Former allies of the bar rejected the idea that he was some kind of Trump stooger. According to him, Barr was a strong leader who was working with Trump to strengthen the Justice Department, then even if his views were related to Trump, he knew his responsibility very well. Bar associates also point out that Joe Biden has also kept the same intention of the US government in his Department of Justice which used to be controversial at the time of the bar. The same Turley said, ‘The full account of what happened during the Trump administration remains to be done, but I am sure that the historian is likely to be more kind to William Barr than the critics.’
