Trump 'will do whatever' he can to 'help the country' after FBI raid: 'Temperature has to be brought down'

EXCLUSIVE: Former President Trump said he "will do whatever" he can "to help the country," after the FBI’s raid of his Mar-a-Lago home last week, telling Fox News Digital that the "temperature has to be brought down," while stressing that the American people are "not going to stand for another scam."

In an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital Monday morning, his first since the raid, Trump said he had his representatives reach out to the Justice Department to offer to help amid outrage over the FBI’s unprecedented raid on his private residence last week, in which agents seized classified records, including some marked as top secret. Trump is disputing the classification of those records, saying the records have been declassified.

"The country is in a very dangerous position. There is tremendous anger, like I've never seen before, over all of the scams, and this new one—years of scams and witch hunts, and now this," Trump said.

"If there is anything we can do to help, I, and my people, would certainly be willing to do that," Trump said.

"There has never been a time like this where law enforcement has been used to break into the house of a former president of the United States, and there is tremendous anger in the country—at a level that has never been seen before, other than during very perilous times," Trump said.

He never learns. They want him dead. They will arrest him and kill him.

Like what?

Precisely what I’m dubious about ...

Why extend any sort of olive branch to those who have so invasively violated your home???

Why reach out to those illegitimately in power who only care about retaining power so they can thoroughly trash our nation???

I pray PDJT rethinks this offer asap/

It’s time to formally announce for 2024. No more waiting.

It’s the single greatest action he ought to take to help the political climate and overall future of the country he—and we—love.

The prospect of something like their version of January 6 actually happening is what keeps President Trump alive.

On the wall beside my desk I have a framed print of a different photo of Zapata with the quote “Es mejor morir de pie que vivir de rodillas”-my mom gave it to me when I was 14-I had just started reading “Atlas Shrugged” for the 1st time-it is my favorite quote on the subject of liberty...

OMG, do NOT like the sound of that at all!!!

Trump is playing statesman and peacemaker. He’s striking a pose. I’d be doing the same thing. Trump has no real control over wether or not Americans rise up against the illegality that passes for the current administration. He’s probably impressed by the levels and quality of anger he’s seeing. Trump would rather win via the system. That would be best all around. But anger can’t rise forever and not explode sooner or later.

Hmm. Just before Jan6 he told his (real) supporters to be peaceful, etc.

Wonder what kind of travesty the FBI is gonna stage in response to THIS statement?
