The improvement was thought of considerably shocking on condition that Carlson was revealed to have expressed his hate for Trump in a textual content.

But on Barr’s podcast, he stated he at all times agreed with Trump’s insurance policies and declared, “I certainly support Trump.”

“I have spent my whole life looking at politicians and commenting on them and passing judgment on them, and I’ve never run for, you know, room mother,” he stated. “And the idea of that is so far from anything I’ve ever done, it’s kind of hard even to imagine.”
