Former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr has urged the Department of Justice (DOJ) to drop the charges brought against President-elect Donald Trump in the interest of the American people. Barr believes that dismissing the charges will allow Trump to focus on the needs of the country.
In response to the two cases currently facing Trump, Barr stated, “I think all cases are a matter of discretion… It’s always a question of what’s in the best interest of the country.” He emphasized that the distractions and resources needed to pursue these cases would not be beneficial for the American people.
Barr also highlighted the weakness of the cases against Trump, stating that they would require years of litigation if officials attempted to revive them after his term. He called the cases “very weak” and said they would involve “arcane litigation over legal doctrines.”
One of the cases Barr referred to is the 18-count charge brought by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis in Georgia. Barr believes that this case is a result of political motivations and that the charges are weak. He also mentioned New York Attorney General Letitia James’ case, which he called an “abomination.” He argued that this case would have never been brought against anyone except the president-elect.
Barr also addressed the civil case brought by E. Jean Carroll, in which she accused Trump of rape and defamation. Barr believes that both Carroll and James’ cases have given Trump “strength” and have backfired against those who brought them forth.
In the face of these multiple legal battles, Barr pointed out that many Americans are tired of seeing the legal system being used against Trump. He believes that these cases have had the opposite effect of what the accusers intended, and have only fueled support for the president-elect.
Barr’s advice to the DOJ to drop these charges serves as a reminder that the interests of the American people should be the top priority. With the country facing countless challenges, it is essential that the president-elect has the ability to focus on the needs of the American people.
Barr’s support for Trump and his call for the dismissal of the charges against him is a reflection of the views of many Americans. The American people are tired of seeing their leaders being unfairly attacked and distracted by baseless legal battles. It’s time for the DOJ to prioritize the needs of the country and allow Trump to lead without these unnecessary distractions.
This is just Barr playing his usual role of CYOA, but it may also be the first smart thing he has said in YEARS! What do you think? Let me know in the comments below.

Yeah….right…..this is coming from the guy that did not object to all these charges when they first occured. In fact, if my memory serves me correctly, he even expounded on their validity. It would be nice for someone to look up the archive footage of him on MSM broadcasts.
