(PrimeChronicle.org) – Former Attorney General Bill Barr has endorsed former President Donald Trump and described the Biden administration as a “bunch of thugs”. Barr had significant disagreements with the former president over claims of election fraud before ultimately parting with Trump. Barr lamented choosing what he saw as the lesser of two evils and said he felt almost forced to support Trump over Biden. Barr said it’s a “terrible” decision for the country to have to make but that a decision must be made.
The former attorney general clarified that while he had a troubled relationship with former President Trump, he agreed with Trump’s policies. Barr highlighted that his disagreements with Trump stemmed more from the president’s personal behavior than from his policy. Barr elaborated that the “far left” is a greater threat to American democracy than Trump. In a dramatic statement last year Barr claimed that he would never endorse Trump. Now Barr says he is more concerned with radical democrats’ push for continued federal aid for Ukraine as well as new foreign aid packages for Israel and Taiwan.
Barr’s trouble with Trump came to a head in May or 2022 when Barr asserted that Trump’s election fraud claims were unfounded nonsense. At the time Barr referred to the Trump administration as a “clown show” and told Trump to give up and go home. Trump fired back and described Barr as “lazy” and a “coward”.
Barr now supports Trump going as far as to describe the hush money case as blatantly political and an “abomination”. Barr called the current accusations “far-fetched” and lamented the ridiculous nature of resurrecting the case so many years after the fact. Barr stated that the progressive left is “wrong on the law” and stated that supporting President Joe Biden is “national suicide”.
In a statement made on April 16, Trump steadfastly maintained that the trial is “rigged” and “all politics.” Trump faces 34 counts of falsifying business records.
