Former Attorney General Bill Barr shared his reaction this week to former President Donald Trump being found guilty on 34 counts of falsifying business records.
“When people were talking about it, I said that the case was an abomination, and I didn’t think it was going to be brought at the end of the day because it was so vaporous,” Barr told Fox News host Jimmy Failla during an interview on “Fox Across America.”
“I was surprised they went ahead with it… it was an abomination. And everyone’s talked about that. But you think about, how are the American people going to react in a very close election if Trump loses and this case is overturned – which it will be, this case will be overturned,” Barr added.
Barr, who served as the attorney general during the Trump administration, also weighed in on how Trump’s verdict could impact his potential 2024 presidential campaign.
