“At the very same moment when my ultra-secure Mar-a-Lago was raided by the FBI, Joe Biden was harboring classified documents in his China-funded Penn Center and his unsecured garage – right on the floor, piles of paper, the floor was probably very wet and damp, as many garages are,” Trump pointed out in a video in January.
Trump has openly critiqued Jack Smith’s appointment as special counsel in the investigation, calling him “totally compromised” and a “political hit man.”
