During a Fox News interview with John Roberts, Barr addressed \u2064the &#8220;legal trials and tribulations&#8221; of his\u200d former boss.<\/p>\n<h3>Examining the Impact on the Primary Season<\/h3>\n<p>Roberts asked Barr about the upcoming \u200dtrial on the election, set to begin on March 4, the day before Super\u200c Tuesday in Washington, D.C. He mentioned concerns from Trump\u2064 supporters \u200cthat this trial is politically motivated and meant to\u2063 disrupt the primary process.<\/p>\n<p>Roberts then played \u200da clip of Republican \u200bpresidential candidate Chris Christie discussing whether the \u200d<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/bill-barr-weighs-in-on-if-he-believes-trump-trials-are-election-interference\/\" title=\"Bill Barr's stance on Trump trials as election interference.\">investigations constitute election interference<\/a>. Christie, a vocal critic of Trump, argued that\u2063 Trump&#8217;s conduct \u200cinterferes with the primary process due \u2064to his indictment in four \u200bdifferent jurisdictions.<\/p>\n<p>Barr agreed with Christie&#8217;s assessment, \u200bstating, \u201cThe basic principle in the\u200b <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/president-trump-please-pardon-jon-woods-a-victim-of-process-crimes-like-michael-flynn\/\" title=\"President Trump, Please Pardon Jon Woods, a Victim of Process Crimes Like Michael Flynn\">criminal justice system<\/a> is if a prominent person commits a crime and is seeking office, \u200bthat doesn&#8217;t give him immunity. If there&#8217;s enough \u200ctime to have\u2062 it resolved before the election, it should be resolved. The idea of\u2063 letting \u200csomeone run \u2062in the election and addressing \u200dthe charges later is not a principle of the\u2063 criminal justice system.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Dismissing the notion of blanket immunity for candidates, Barr emphasized, \u201cNow, you can \u200dargue about\u200c whether he should have been charged and so forth, but the idea\u200c that this is\u2062 interfering with the \u200belection is simply wrong.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Former Trump U.S. Attorney General Bill \u200cBarr dismisses the idea that the investigations into Trump\u2064 constitute election interference: \u201cI mean, the basic principle\u2062 in \u200bthe criminal justice system is if a \u2063prominent person\u2064 commits a crime, and is seeking office, \u200bthat doesn&#8217;t give him\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/h8FuJTv0Qz\">pic.twitter.com\/h8FuJTv0Qz<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Jason Rantz on KTTH Radio (@jasonrantz) \u200b <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/jasonrantz\/status\/1697418240249737269?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 1, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\">CLICK HERE TO GET \u2063THE \u2062DAILY WIRE APP<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former Attorney General Bill Barr was questioned about whether investigations into ex-President Donald Trump amounted to election interference.
