Former AG Bill Barr says will support Trump because the real threat is from the ‘far left’

Bill Barr, who was U.S. attorney general under Donald Trump, and who's now the 2024 presumptive GOP presidential nominee, says he's more concerned about the "far left"  than Trump being a threat to America. 

“My problems came with his behavior, which I found very troubling after the election,” Barr said Saturday during an interview on Fox News.

Barr, now a Trump critic, also said the former president would not, if reelected, become “some right-wing dictator.”

He said that while serving in the Trump administration he had no objections to Trump’s policies and that he won’t support President Joe Biden's reelection bid.

Barr said he doesn’t like the choices for president on the ballot in the November election but he believes it’s his “duty” to pick the person “who will do the least harm to the country,” which is Trump and a Republican administration.

“The threat to our country is from the far-left and the drive that’s been occurring toward really a socialistic system and one that brooks no opposition, that cancels people,” he said.
