Barr to Cavuto: We tried to warn Trump

“I resigned on December 14 because I thought that at that point the state votes were certified and that was the end of the legal process,” Barr said, adding:

And I also didn’t like the way he was spouting the Big Lie. I thought that was irresponsible. But he took it much further than even I expected, or anyone expected. And during this time, he was being told by lawyers in the White House that if he kept on doing this, he would spend the rest of his life tangling with the criminal justice process. And that’s exactly what’s happened. He shouldn’t be surprised and no one else should be surprised.

[The point about the fake electors is particularly risky, as Barr explains. The video cuts out after the reference to “the Big Lie,” but Barr wanted to make clear that Trump had been warned not to go down that path. One has to wonder whether Jack Smith and Fani Willis have testimony to that already; presumably they do. — Ed]
