Trump Insists He Did Not Show Classified Material in Leaked Audio: ‘It Was Bravado’
Breitbart ^ | June 27.2023 | Paul Bois

Posted on 06/28/2023 5:42:51 AM PDT by Reno89519

Former President Donald Trump has claimed he did not show classified material in leaked audio recently obtained by CNN.

...

Speaking with Semafor and ABC News, the former president said that he did not share classified information, chocking it down to “bravado.”

“I would say it was bravado, if you want to know the truth, it was bravado,” Trump said. “I was talking and just holding up papers and talking about them, but I had no documents. I didn’t have any documents.”

This is the real problem, Trump just runs his mouth--continuing supports drink it up, others cringe. We've had four years of Trump in office, mix results, many not lasting. It would have been great had he won reelection, but that was stolen, he went cheap on attorneys and recounts, so that was lost. He never took control of the party when he was president, so they have never helped him. We've now had years of drama, often drawing out the worst in Trump. So that brings us to 2023, do we support Trump for 2024 or move on? I recently chose to move on. The continued persecution of Trump must be fought, I still do object to it, criticize it, point out that it is wrong, and that in fairness we should be PROSECUTING the Bidens, and lots of other folks. That doesn't change that I also, simultaneously feel we need to move on from Trump. Whether that choice is DeSantis (my current preference) or someone else, time will tell. We've still got SEVEN MONTHS until the first primaries and caucuses and SIXTEEN MONTHS until election day. That's a lifetime.

Trump speak in hyperbole and bravado, not hard facts. We all know this. It's his charm, it drives critics insane. But when we get to legal matters, it is problematic. And when we get to elections, it is damning. Consider all of the drama, has Trump added a single new voter likely to vote for him. Doubtful. Does he have the same 81 million ready to vote again for him, doubtful. This is a death by a thousand cuts and he is too often doing it to himself.

Can Trump STFU? No. He's now admitted to ABC that he was lying. His defense to Smith's charges is that he was lying. Will that win him credibility and votes? Doubtful.

Do we want a martyr in 2024 or do we want to win? I prefer winning.

“He lies. He even lies about lying. This man is the worst grifter (and most successful grifter) of all time. You cannot trust even one single word that comes out of his mouth. He conned a lot of you.”

So saith the Hillary Klan. So... do you represent the all time “Professional Grifters”, then? Obama, who sent pallets of cash to Iran so they could nuke up for a future strike against the US and Israel? Hillary, who made deals against America, including a uranium deal with Russia? Or Biden & Son... who are making deals with communist enemy nations as we speak that will bankrupt and/or destroy the USA. Which grifters do you prefer or represent?

“has Trump added a single new voter likely to vote for him. No”

I’ve pointed that out on several occasions on FR, usually only to be attacked by Trump sycophants that can’t see past their noses and hurl childish names just like he does.

I like the man sometimes he is his own worst enemy and it seems everybody can see it BUT him.

You've been here less than a year. Relax yourself, noob.

Hillary and Obama and Biden are not in the same class of grifter as Trump. You've always known what you're getting with Hillary and Obama and Biden. They've always at least told you who they are.

Trump was a lifelong big-city NYC billionaire liberal who hung out with Sharpton and Jesse and Hillary and all the rest. Then when he saw an opening, he made a miraculous switch to a Republican. He saw he could bilk people for their money and votes, and boy did he ever! But you just keep shining his shoes. I'm sure it'll all work out.

It seems like the prosecutor is presenting classified info to the press every day, including court docs. Btw, all politicians lie. Biden more than anyone on earth, but Trump was making a joke it sounds like. So what? Your candidate doesn’t?

Silly boy...You obviously are posting satire. Even the low info crowd understands no Democrat will be prosecuted.

And maybe sometimes people want to read more into this to explain it away? Fair is fair. You don’t know anymore about what went on there than I do do. We take it at face value, do we filter it with his admitted lying, do we make up something that fits our expectation?

i just read into witness accounts of gunfire coming from the theatre...

will he lie? for sure. would witnesses lie? unknowingly perhaps...

official police reports are usually lacking... if i were his lawyer i would say the dead victim grabbed my gun and shot me in the stomach so i grabbed it back and shot him... in self defense... a lie, but the best one he’s got.

Re: 6 - Good grief.

What’s your point? That only people who have a law degree have viewpoints worthy on this thread?

Grow up and stop trying to shut down discussion.

Of course it matters....the fact they leaked this, which is heresay , which is not one of the 31 charges against Trump says two things. This doc doesnt actually exist or cant be found ...and they have nothing much going on with the current batch of docs they intend on using against Trump...or theyd have leaked that instead. Isnt it amazing this is the biggest leak so far? Guess we’ll see.

If your screen name "thefactor" was inspired by Bill O'Reilly, note that he called Free Republic the vilest place on the web.

If you don't trust Trump, OK, but you and your buddies keep pushing it. Creating strife among us was the uniparty's plan all along.
