Ex-Attorney General Bill Barr says former President Donald Trump fired him in a fit of anger in response to his declaration that the campaign to overturn the presidential election was “bulls—”
The nation’s former top law enforcement official told NBC News that Trump erupted in the Oval Office in December 2020 when Barr trashed the various conspiracy theories contending that the election was stolen.
“I told him that all this stuff was bulls--- about election fraud. And, you know, it was wrong to be shoveling it out the way his team was,” Barr said in a new interview with Lester Holt.
