Wray’s remarks about antifa, voter fraud, and Russian election interference often put him at odds with Trump, who publicly voiced frustration with his FBI director.
Ahead of the 2020 election, Trump pressured Wray to address the potential of widespread voter fraud, though Wray disputed that it was a rampant issue.
