New York AG Trump lawsuit a 'political hit job' driven by left's desire to 'punish' him: Bill Barr
Fox News ^ | September 21, 2022 | Yael Halon

Former Attorney General Bill Barr dismissed the lawsuit filed by the New York attorney general against former President Donald Trump and his children as a "political hit job," telling Fox News it is yet another symptom of "Trump derangement syndrome" and the left's desire to "punish" Trump.

"It’s hard for me not to conclude it’s a political hit job," Barr said Wednesday on "America Reports." "This is a woman who campaigned for office promising she was going to go after Trump, which I think is a tremendous abuse of office to go head-hunting and targeting individuals."

Barr said he thinks the suit will "backfire" on James because the public will perceive it as the fulfillment of her campaign promise on Trump.

"I think it will make people sympathetic for Trump that this is another example of people piling on because of ‘Trump derangement syndrome,’ you know, the strong desire to punish him," he argued.

Does Barr understand that he suffers intermittent bouts of TDS?

Barr is as bad as Pence or Pompeo. Trying to be pro-Trump and anti-Trump all in the same breath, to diversify their future chances in the GOP whether it is with Trump in the Oval Office or Trump making license plates.

Pick a side, dude. And stay with it.

Barr is on record, saying he won’t support Trump in the 2024 Republican Primaries, but will vote for him in the General Election against the democrat candidate.

Is Barr a DeSantis fan?

This member of Free Republic who will support Trump “through hell & high water” would like to know who “bagpipes” favors.

Barr is a schizophrenic

My impression. Seems the only rational explanation for his behavior towards Trump.
