CNN just played a two minute tape on “Anderson Cooper 360,” of the forever disgraced, former president Trump’s 2021 meeting in Bedminster, New Jersey, where he discussed holding secret documents he did not declassify.
The audio recording comes from a July 2021 interview Trump gave at his Bedminster resort for people working on the memoir of Mark Meadows, Trump’s former chief of staff. The special counsel’s indictment alleges that those in attendance – a writer, publisher and two of Trump’s staff members – were shown classified information about the plan of attack on Iran.
The episode is one of two referenced in the indictment where prosecutors allege that Trump showed classified information to others who did not have security clearances.
The special counsel’s office declined to comment. CNN has reached out to Trump’s attorneys for comment.
