An attorney for former President Donald Trump said Tuesday that the Justice Department leaked a tape of Trump discussing an allegedly classified document to CNN.
“Here’s the good news, we know who leaked it and that’s the DOJ, because I didn’t have it. The DOJ did. They keep everything close to their chest until they realize they’re losing … so then they leak something and tell the American people, ‘listen to what he said,’” Alina Habba told “Fox News Tonight” host Lawrence Jones. “Well, let’s think about what he said. He said what the presidential record act says. The president has the right to declassify documents. Who doesn’t? A non-president. A senator like Joe Biden when he had classified documents and took them out 40 years ago, 30 years ago and had no right to do it.”
CNN aired a two-minute audio tape of Trump Monday, during which he discussed his ability to declassify documents with unidentified people. During the conversation, Trump joked with the attendees about the private email server that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had in her Westchester, New York home.
