According to former Attorney General Bill Barr, former President Donald Trump's "verbal skills are limited."
Speaking during an event at Harvard's Institute of Politics, Barr highlighted Trump's tendency to prioritize performance over substance as his biggest flaw.
"He is more interested in performing and getting a reaction than he is of solving a particular problem," Barr stated.
Barr also expressed concern about the lack of unity and the need to find a way to navigate through challenges together. He remarked, "Untimely we need some degree of unity. We are all in the same boat. We have to figure out a way to muddle through. Someone who is constantly rolling around in the mud and fighting at the drop of a hat and is strictly in that mode, I'm worried about them getting us through."
CBS chief correspondent Jan Crawford joined the conversation, expressing her shock at Trump's comments about Hezbollah being "very smart." She questioned whether Trump was "losing it." In response, Barr acknowledged Trump's limited verbal skills and lack of discipline in his speech. "His verbal skills are limited. And so he, you know, if you get him away from 'very, very, very,' the adjectives sort of they're unfamiliar to him and they sort of spill out and he goes too far. You know, he's not very disciplined when it comes to what he says," Barr explained.
Barr's remarks shed light on Trump's communication style, emphasizing his preference for performance and his tendency to use exaggerated language. These observations raise questions about Trump's ability to effectively address complex issues and maintain a disciplined approach to public speaking.
