According to a new Rolling Stone report, former President Donald Trump was getting paranoid about the possibility that he might be monitored by the authorities, even before the FBI executed a search warrant at Mar-a-Lago on Monday.
Rolling Stone talked to four people who knew about Trump's behavior. According to the sources, the former president asked his aides if he was being watched.
One source told Rolling Stone that the man asked if the phones were tapped. I don't think he's assuming anything is out of the realm of possibility because of the amount of investigations into the former president.
According to the source, Trump joked that people close to him should be careful about what they say on the phone after he brought the idea of being wiretapped up.
According to two sources close to Trump, the former president has become suspicious of the Republican figures who come to see him at his clubs, wondering if they could be wearing a wire. According to these sources, Trump and his advisers are looking for a "mole" or a "rat" who may be working with law enforcement against him.
One of Trump's advisers told Rolling Stone that members of theMAGA flank have been trying to get to Trump and warn him against trusting certain people.
Trump highlighted how agents broke into his safe during the search.
The FBI didn't give a reason for the raid. Numerous media outlets, as well as Eric Trump in a Fox News interview, suggested it was over material that the former president brought to Mar-a-Lago.
The National Archives got 15 boxes of documents from Mar-a-Lago. The Department of Justice was asked to investigate if Trump broke the law by bringing official documents to his home. The Wall Street Journal and Newsweek reported this week that a person close to Trump may have tipped off investigators, and that they were able to locate documents that the Archives didn't get in February.
