Many of the 2020 White House hopefuls accused Barr of mounting a defense of the Republican president ahead of potentially damaging revelations in the Mueller report. “The attorney general can represent the United States or he can be Donald Trump’s defense attorney. And as we saw at this press conference today, the way that he mischaracterized the Mueller report, he is seeking to help Donald Trump. We need Special Counsel Mueller to testify publicly in Congress.”Klobuchar said in a video that “we want to hear from Director Mueller himself. He’s the one that conducted this major investigation and he’s the one – not Attorney General Barr – that should answer the questions of America,” the senator added.
