Here's how you know former Republican President Donald Trump is getting more and more panicked about the results of the FBI search on his Florida home turned resort early last month.
He's completely run out of excuses and explanations.
So instead, he's blaming the whole thing on someone else. Take a wild guess who...
Yep! His 2016 election opponent and former Democratic Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
In a new interview, Trump claimed to radio host Wendy Bell the FBI wasn't even looking for his documents. No no, they were looking for more "Hillary Clinton e-mails."
Of course his comments come on the heels of a Justice Department filing made public Tuesday night that provided more insight into the nature of the scandal surrounding Trump's handling of documents at Mar-a-Lago.
See Trump's comments below.
\u201cIn a new interview, Trump says he believes DOJ was really looking for Russiagate material and Hillary Clinton emails during the search.\u201d— Ron Filipkowski \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6 (@Ron Filipkowski \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6) 1662045266
Speaking to Bell, a right-wing conservative online radio host sponsored by an alternative medicine weight-loss guru, Trump claimed:
“I think they were looking for Hillary Clinton e-mails…. I think they thought—and who knows, boxes full of stuff—I think they thought it had something to do with the Russia Russia Russia hoax."
"They were afraid that things were in there. Part of their scams material.”
The FBI, of course, has been pretty forthcoming about what they were looking for at Mar-a-Lago and found much of what was listed on its search warrant, so this speculation is as unwarranted as it is unhinged.
The filing released by the DOJ on Tuesday was in response to Trump's demand an independent Special Master be appointed to review the documents found at Mar-a-Lago.
Rather than comply with his demands, the DOJ filing laid out evidence of Trump's obstruction of justice and included photos of some of what they found at his Mar-a-Lago residence—to which Trump of course had a ludicrous response.
The photo included documents marked "TOP SECRET" and "SECRET" spread on the floor of Trump's office with an evidence marker and rjler for reference, but no Hillary Clinton emails were visible.
On Twitter, people couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity of Trump's claim.
\u201c1. LOL\n\n2. What in the world is this show he's on? Was the local public access channel too busy to take his call?\u201d— Aaron Rupar (@Aaron Rupar) 1662048242
\u201c@RonFilipkowski Why would Hillary Clinton's emails be at Mar-A-Lago?\n\nComo say what??\u201d— Ron Filipkowski \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6 (@Ron Filipkowski \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6) 1662045266
\u201c@RonFilipkowski Weird the warrant stated it was looking for something else and found what it was looking for. What an odd coincidence they filed a warrant and randomly said they were looking for documents you actually had.\u201d— Ron Filipkowski \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6 (@Ron Filipkowski \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6) 1662045266
\u201c@RonFilipkowski Why ......would Hillary's emails be at mar-a-lago....???\u201d— Ron Filipkowski \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6 (@Ron Filipkowski \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6) 1662045266
\u201cWhat the hell program is he on? Donald Trump will do your podcast!!!\u201d— Jason Selvig (@Jason Selvig) 1662053676
\u201c@RonFilipkowski If Trump had any competent lawyers, you'd think they would tell him to stop talking of posting. Every time he says something, he just keeps digging that hole deeper & deeper.\u201d— Ron Filipkowski \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6 (@Ron Filipkowski \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6) 1662045266
\u201c@RonFilipkowski Sure, we're now supposed to believe Trump had Hillary emails that he never released. \ud83d\ude44\u201d— Ron Filipkowski \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6 (@Ron Filipkowski \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6) 1662045266
\u201c@RonFilipkowski Pfffft. Sure, Jan. Anything to bring Hillary into the conversation and pretend she's in trouble.\n\nHe used to have a picture of her in his office.\u201d— Ron Filipkowski \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6 (@Ron Filipkowski \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6) 1662045266
\u201c@RonFilipkowski To be fair, loudly and publicly screaming "Yeah I did it, what are you gonna do about it?" has been working quite well for him his whole entire life. No reason to think that'd change now.\u201d— Ron Filipkowski \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6 (@Ron Filipkowski \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6) 1662045266
\u201cThis is a "show" sponsored by a weight loss company. The former President is going on internet radio shows.\u201d— Fred Wellman (@Fred Wellman) 1662045895
\u201cThe emails were INSIDE HIS HOUSE the entire time!\u201d— Markos Moulitsas (@Markos Moulitsas) 1662049184
Trump's interview with Bell only got more bizarre from there as he told her he plans to pardon all January 6 rioters when he is elected President again.
Keep the dream alive, Don.
