Donald Trump Jr. thinks it would be a good thing if his father held onto the nuclear codes. He said that if Donald Trump still had the nuclear codes, it would be a good thing. When they look at Joe Biden, they say, 'You know what?' instead of, "OK, maybe let's not mess with them." We should start attacking now. "If Donald Trump actually still had the nuclear codes, it'd probably be good." — Donald Trump Jr. with the latest Republican defense of Trump keeping classified documents at Mar-a-Lago pic.twitter.com/kAhNahMqFn
There is a count on August 22, 2022.
The FBI searched the former president's Mar-a-Lago residence in August and removed boxes of documents.
According to the search warrant, the FBI was looking into a possible violation of the Espionage Act.
In the wake of the search, Trump accused the FBI of planting evidence at his home and called reports that he may have had nuclear weapons a hoax.
He claims he was allowed to take sensitive materials to Mar-a-Lago because he had a "standing order" to declassify any documents he took from the Oval Office.
On Monday, Trump filed a lawsuit against the U.S. government to stop them from reading the materials until a third-party court official can review the documents and decide if they should be returned to him.
