– These are dark times for our country when my beautiful home in Mar-a-Lago is now besieged, searched and occupied by a large group of FBI agents. This has never before happened to a president in the United States, he writes in a statement on his website TruthSocial, according to NTB.
There he also rages against what he calls the radical left in the Democrats, and claims that the action is an attack from them. In the statement, he writes that this is happening because they do not want him to stand as a presidential candidate in 2024.
According to CNN Trump himself was not in Florida when he says the search took place. They write that he does not want to comment on the background to the search.
Neither the Ministry of Justice nor the White House wish to comment on the case to CNN. Neither does the FBI, writes AFP.
