Former Attorney general is urging state and federal prosecutors to drop all legal cases against donald trumparguing that the public’s decision to re-elect him should put an end to the ongoing legal battles.

As Donald Trump appears to win the 2024 election, Bill Barr, a former top official in his first administration, suggested that legal actions against Trump should be dismissed.

Barr cites that the American people were fully aware of the charges when they voted, and now that Trump has been re-elected, all cases should be dropped. fox news reported.

“The American people have delivered their verdict on President Trump and decisively elected him to lead the country for the next four years,” Barr said. “They did so with full knowledge of the allegations against them by prosecutors across the country, and I believe Attorney General Garland and state prosecutors should respect the people’s decision and dismiss the cases against President Trump now.”

Barr points out that many of the cases, especially the federal ones, have already been weakened by legal rulings and continuing them would not serve the public. Barr is especially focused on cases related to the January 6 insurrection and the withholding of classified documents.

With Trump taking office in January 2025, Barr hopes a Trump administration will exert influence over the Justice Department, halting federal investigations.

Statewide cases in New York and Georgia are ongoing. Trump is scheduled to appear Nov. 22 in New York for a sentencing hearing.
