NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: On October 26, Former Attorney General Bill Barr made an appearance at The University of Chicago where he spoke about “his journey and the law.”
Following his discussion at the Institute of Politics at UChicago, a clip featuring Barr's comments about former President Donald Trump gained widespread attention on social media and news platforms.
'Morning Joe' host Mika Brzezinski also addressed this clip.

‘Morning Joe’ shares Bill Barr’s ‘warning’ about Donald Trump
‘Morning Joe’ played a clip from Bill Barr’s appearance at the Institute of Politics, where the former Attorney General spoke about Donald Trump’s possible second term, “He's already saying it's going to be about retribution. He's a petty man, and it's all about him. He has a very fragile ego.”
“Something happened to him as a kid, and I'm not going to spend time psychoanalyzing it. But, you know, every encounter, he has to come out showing the other guy he is better,” added Barr.
He also added, “It's all about the assertion of his ego. I think he will be self-indulgent in a new administration and, you know, won't be as effective as he could otherwise be. Probably, things would start moving toward chaos.”
As the clip ended, ‘Morning Joe’ host Mika Brzezinski said, “There's a lot there. Former US Attorney General Bill Barr continues to warn about what a second presidency for Donald Trump could mean for America.”
“Trump responded by attacking his former attorney general on social media, just as the attorney general was describing his behavior, he then started carrying out that behavior,” added Brzezinski.

One user said, “Every time Trump insults someone. He's actually describing himself.”
“WHY does Trump feel compelled to threaten, intimidate, etc? Because he is insecure and weak,” wrote one person, and another commented, “Trump proves everyone right within seconds of criticizing him. Hilarious.”
One person wrote in agreement with Barr, “Agree with Bill this man has had a traumatic past and thinks he has to be an insulting bully to get "even" with anyone who does not agree with him.”
“Definitely not a Bill “Barr fan” but he is totally spot on of description of Trump,” wrote one user, and another commented, “Haha, Trump simply confirms everything Barr said.”
