Former Attorney General Bill Barr on Saturday said that he would back former President Donald Trump over President Joe Biden in the 2024 election despite having said otherwise in previous interviews.

“I’ve said all along that I think it’s my duty to pick the person I think will do the least harm to the country. And I and I think that that to me, that’s clearly Trump and the Republican administration, which I think is important,” the former attorney general said during a Fox News interview Saturday.
