Attorney General William P. Barr, who was appointed by Mr. Trump, has played an unusually active role in the investigation. He pushed Justice Department lawyers to bring the case by the end of September, prompting pushback from attorneys who wanted more time and complained of political influence. He has spoken publicly about the inquiry for months and set tight deadlines for the prosecutors leading the effort.

I’m not opposed to some anti trust action across the entire industry but making this a partisan election issue is just going to discredit the whole thing and obscure the real issues.
