Trump’s Election Fraud Claims Were ‘All Bullshit’ Former AG Barr Says

Fresno CA

Description

Former attorney general William Barr, one of Trump’s true loyalists, literally called “bullshit” on his former boss’s oft-disproven claims of election fraud. This news comes from an excerpt of a book by ABC News’ Jonathan Karl, Betrayal, which chronicles the last days of the Trump administration. According to the book, Barr concluded it was highly unlikely evidence existed to back up Trump’s voter fraud claims even before Barr gave the go-ahead to go against long-standing Justice Department policy to investigate those claims. “To date, we have not seen fraud on a scale that could have effected a different outcome in the election,” Barr told AP reporter Michael Balsamo in December 2020.
