Bill Barr, who battled for – and with – his boss, former President Trump, while serving a tumultuous two-year stint as U.S. attorney general, divulged in a Thursday interview who he hopes emerges from a potentially crowded 2024 field of GOP presidential candidates.

Bush nearly 30 years earlier, said he will support whichever candidate can keep his old boss from getting nominated.
