"Attorney General William Barr brushed off critics attacking his reputation and handling of matters concerning President Trump, stating in a new interview: "Everyone dies.""
"I am at the end of my career," Barr, 69, said.
"Everyone dies, and I am not, you know, I don't believe in the Homeric idea that, you know, immortality comes by, you know, having odes sung about you over the centuries, you know?" he added.
Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani shared similar remarks in an interview with The New Yorker last year when asked whether he was concerned about how his time working with the Trump administration would impact his reputation.
“I don’t care about my legacy,” he said. “I’ll be dead.”
