Trump: ‘I’m Allowed to Do Whatever I Want’ With Classified Info
The former president told Hugh Hewitt that he “absolutely” would testify in the federal government’s probe of his handling of sensitive material
DONALD TRUMP SAID he “absolutely” plans to testify in the federal government’s case against him regarding classified documents he removed from the White House. “I’m allowed to do whatever I want … I’m allowed to do everything I did,” the former president told conservative podcast host Hugh Hewitt.
In an interview on “The Hugh Hewitt Show” that dropped Wednesday, the host asked Trump, “Did you direct anyone to move the boxes, Mr. President? Did you tell anyone to move the boxes?” referring to the boxes of more than 300 classified documents the federal government seized last year from Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate.
“I don’t talk about anything. You know why? Because I’m allowed to do whatever I want. I come under the Presidential Records Act,” Trump replied, while also taking a quick detour to bash Hewitt. “I’m not telling you. You know, every time I talk to you, ‘Oh, I have a breaking story.’ You don’t have any story. I come under the Presidential Records Act. I’m allowed to do everything I did.”
You're viewing part of a thread.
You’re literally making excuses for crimes against humanity to own Drumpf, maybe take a step back?
I literally did the opposite of that, and called the Trail of Tears bad. My actual words:
Trail of Tears was a shitty thing, but it was literally not illegal
Things can be very, very bad, and not illegal. Chattel slavery was totally legal and not morally defensible
You called it a crime and it is not.
Do you have actual crimes, like Trump is accused of, or are you going to make up more nonsense?
The Trail of Tears was a literally crime against humanity you fucking psychopath
"Crimes against humanity" are a rhetorical device, and most assuredly weren't an actual thing in the 19th century, while chattel slavery existed.
This is why King Leopold wasn't brought up in an international court on crimes against humanity - that didn't exist.
I'm just going to assume you don't know of any actual crimes.
Why are you making excuses for slavers and genociders? Very gross
You're dumb, but even you aren't dumb enough to actually think that's what I'm saying, when my own words state the opposite.
Literally you’re saying that Trump taking papers to his house is worse than slavery and genocide.
No I'm saying it's actually illegal and those things weren't.
Might wanna give "ex post facto" a quick Google.
Clinton blowing up the only pharmaceutical plant in the Sudan wasn’t illegal? What about Bush making up lies to invade a sovereign country and kill a million people?
Do you have anything, anything at all that is
1: domestic
2: actually illegal and not just a thing you don't like
Are you not tired of me constantly proving you wrong, with citations?
