I am sure the Dems and CNN will take it differently than Barr meant it, or blow it way out of proportion. However, I am happy to see someone with the nads to finally tell the President publicly his tweeting or twittering or whatever are making his job harder. I think Trump has made his own job harder at times because he can't stay off his cell.

Barr claimed President Trump’s constant Twitter posts about the Justice Department’s criminal cases make it harder for him to do his job.
“The president has never asked me to do anything in a criminal case,” he stated. “However, to have public statements and tweets made about the Department, about people in the Department, make it impossible for me to do my job.”
The attorney general also said he will not be bullied or influenced by anybody, whether it’s Congress, a newspaper editorial board or the President of the United States.
The White House also responded to the recent comments made by attorney general and his role as the nation’s top cop.
In a statement (https://twitter.com/CBS_Herridge/status/1228092112693940224) Thursday, White House Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham said President Trump was not bothered at all by Barr’s comments. She added that the attorney general has the right, like any American citizen, to voice his opinion.
Grisham also noted the president has full faith and confidence in the U.S. attorney general.
