Former Trump National Security Advisor encouraged Republicans to read the Trump indictment 'and ask yourself: if the government can prove what they allege here, shouldn't this man go to jail?' 

 

Former UN Ambassador John Bolton said Trump took classified material to Mar-a-Lago as keepsakes because they were 'cool,' and said every Republican should read the DOJ's criminal indictment. 

Bolton, who ran for president in 2016 and could run again in 2024, said Trump viewed subjects through the prism of how they could 'benefit' Trump himself. 

The former president was indicted on 37-counts in a charging document unsealed Friday.

Trump's former AG Bill Barr claims ex-president is 'toast' if 'even half' the allegations made against him in classified documents indictment are true - and calls the charges 'very damning'

 

Former Attorney General Bill Barr says President Trump 'is toast' if even half of the allegations in the indictment against him are true

 

Former Attorney General Bill Barr says he believes Donald Trump is 'toast' if 'even half' of the allegations in the indictment against him are true.

Barr - who was appointed by Trump to serve as the nation's top prosecutor in 2019 -  described the indictment as comprehensive and damaging to Trump's reputation.   

'I was shocked by the degree of sensitivity of these documents and how many there were, ... and I think the counts under the Espionage Act that he willfully retained those documents are solid counts', Barr said on Sunday.

'If even half of [the indictment] is true then he's toast. It's a very detailed indictment, and it's very, very damning,' Barr explained on Fox News on Sunday morning.

'This idea of presenting Trump as a victim here - the victim of a witch hunt - is ridiculous. Yes, he's been a victim in the past. Yes his adversaries have obsessively pursued him with phony claims, and I've been at his side defending him when he is a victim, but this is much different. He's not a victim here,' he said.

'He was totally wrong that he had the right to have those documents. Those documents are among the most sensitive secrets the country has.'
