Trump’s former Attorney General Bill Barr reveals chilling prediction of what will happen if ex-president is re-elected amid fears staff will be unable to say NO during nothing-to-loose second term

Former Attorney General Bill Barr has expressed concerns about what a second term for the former president could look like.

Barr, who served under Trump from 2019 to 2020, has suggested his former boss has potential for a second presidency, but his run could be even more tumultuous than the first if he is surrounded by yes men.

Former AG Barr has emphasized the need for those around Trump to voice dissent and guide him in a more constructive direction.

He believes Trump's own advisers could influence his decisions, knowing there would be few consequences for his actions during his last presidency.

Barr suggested during an interview on Friday that Trump's “chaotic” style of government would pose challenges.

Barr says he believes there will likely be a lack of people around Trump who can counterbalance him and steer him in a more constructive direction. He was photographed in Iowa last week

“I worry that his style of governance, his continued indulgence in anger and frustration versus a constructive approach to solving our problem, will be chaotic and not accomplish much,” Barr said. Fox news. “He'll be a lame duck president.”

Unlike his first term, Barr said there may be no government that can provide any system of checks and balances to keep Trump in check. He noted that he “needs people around him to push back and help keep him on the right path.

“Once he wins a second term, I'm not sure you know what considerations could be used to push back on bad ideas,” Barr said.

“I think for people who are going to be in that government. I think they should be prepared to stand up to abuse of government power.”

Barr, who does not support Trump's bid for the 2024 Republican nomination, expressed concern about the possible composition of Trump's Cabinet for a second term, recalling the high turnover and number of disagreements that characterized his first term.

'During his first term, this could mainly be done by pointing out to him how this would damage his prospects for a second term. “Once he wins a second term, I don't know what considerations could be used to push back on bad ideas,” Barr explained.

In the past, Barr had been a fierce defender of Trump, even going so far as to appoint his own special counsel to investigate whether the FBI improperly opened an investigation into Trump's 2016 presidential campaign based on weak evidence about possible ties with Russia. In the photo in 2019

While acknowledging that Trump could easily fill a Cabinet, Barr questioned the quality of individuals he might choose and the lack of guardrails that would exist in a presidency where Trump feels he has nothing to lose .

Barr left the administration after disagreeing with Trump's claims of widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election.

He quit on December 23, 2020 – in part because he and Trump disagreed on the election results.

Trump's lawyers have argued that the then-president was simply exercising his right to free speech when he questioned the results, but Barr said the argument was unconvincing.

Since leaving office, he has become an outspoken critic of the former president, focusing on Trump's actions leading up to the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

'One of the reasons I'm against Trump is… [Republican National Committee] The nominee is: I don't think he's going to move the country forward,” Barr said.

Barr previously said Trump brought all the problems on himself — which was one reason he didn't support his 2024 bid.

The veteran Justice Department official has declined to say who he supports, insisting he will “pick my poison” when the time comes.

Despite Barr's own reservations, polls show Trump maintaining his position as the front-runner for the Republican candidate.

Trump still consistently ranks first in national and state polls

The latest polls show that Republican voters would still put Trump first, increasing his lead nationally over the rest of the field by 7 points since November and as much as 26 points since February.

With 69 percent support, Trump is by far the frontrunner, while second-place Ron DeSantis earns just 12 percent — a whopping 57 points behind the ex-president and former ally.

Nikki Haley comes in third with 9 percent, meaning both she and DeSantis have lost 1 percent since November.

Biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy is in fourth place with 5 percent – ​​a loss of 2 percent since the last poll in November – and former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is in fifth place with just 2 percent.
