Trump co-defendant in classified documents case was told he'd be pardoned in a second term, notes in FBI interview say

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Donald Trump’s valet Walt Nauta was told that if he was charged with lying to the FBI, the former president would pardon him when he won a second term in 2024, according to notes from an interview with a witness in the federal classified documents investigation.

A redacted summary of the November 2022 interview given to the FBI by the witness – who is identified as “Person 16” and described as someone who worked in Trump’s White House – was made public in newly unsealed court filings in the criminal case on Monday.

Nauta was charged in June of last year with lying to the FBI and obstructing the investigation by special counsel Jack Smith, along with Trump who was charged with obstruction and mishandling of classified and national defense information. Both men have pleaded not guilty.

Nauta’s attorney declined to comment to CNN. Trump’s attorneys have not responded to CNN’s inquiry.

1. Trump doesn't know Walt Nauta...

Trump never met Walt Nauta.

2. And there isn't going to be a second term.

3. Anything Nauta did had nothing to do with Trump.

Nauta did it all on his own.

Just got up one morning and decided to hide top secret documents.

Just like Michael Cohen got up one day and decided to pay off a porn star he had never met.

4. Hey! I think you're onto something!

5. Right, I should work for Trump's defense attorneys.

The problem is that the lies are so silly, who could believe them?
