Trump's own National Security Advisor John Bolton says Trump's claim he declassified documents before taking them to Mar-a-Lago is 'almost certainly a lie'
Trump claimed he had declassified classified documents that the FBI found at Mar-a-Lago.
John Bolton told The New York Times he believes the former president is lying.
Former President Donald Trump's claim that he declassified documents before taking them to Mar-a-Lago is "almost certainly a lie," his former national security adviser told The New York Times.
"I was never briefed on any such order, procedure, policy when I came in," John Bolton told the Times. "If he were to say something like that, you would have to memorialize that, so that people would know it existed."
Bolton said he had never heard of such an order the entire time he was working for Trump or after he was fired from the administration.
"When somebody begins to concoct lies like this, it shows a real level of desperation," Bolton told the Times.
