Former President Donald Trump insists that he did "nothing wrong" as he reacted to a leaked recording of him apparently discussing what he described as "highly confidential" documents in his possession post-presidency.
Trump, the commanding front-runner in the latest GOP presidential nomination polls as he runs a third straight time for the White House, argued in a Fox News Digital interview on Tuesday that "this is just another hoax."
"I would say election interference more than anything else. It’s a disgrace that they can do it," Trump said. "Everything was fine. We did nothing wrong and everybody knows it."
Trump was indicted and arraigned this month for his alleged improper retention of classified records. He pleaded not guilty in federal court to criminal charges that he illegally retained national security records at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, following the end of his term in office and that he obstructed federal efforts to recover the documents. In total, Trump faces 37 felony charges.
