I'm beginning to think that that Donald Trump guy has a penchant for lying. The former reality show star turned criminal defendant pleaded the fifth more than 400 times in his fraud deposition. But now he told radio host Hugh Hewitt that he looks "forward to testifying." He further claimed that he's "allowed to do whatever I want" with classified documents. It's as if he's confessing to something.
"I'm allowed to do whatever I want … I'm allowed to do everything I did," Trump told Hewitt.
Via the Rolling Stone:
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."
