Donald Trump Tells Fox News' Bret Baier Why He Didn't Just Return Classified Documents: 'I Was Very Busy' To Sort Through Boxes
, the former president’s first sit down since he was indicted last week on federal charges related to his withholding of classified documents., Trump offered another explanation for why he didn’t just return the classified material, even in response to a subpoena: He was too busy to sort through the boxes where they were kept.
In the clip, Baier noted to Trump that the National Archives and Records Administration asked for the return of the documents.“Baier responded, “And then they said they went to DOJ to subpoena you to get it.”Baier then asked, “Why not just hand them over then?” Baier added, “Yeah, but according to the indictment, you then tell this aide to move to other locations after telling your lawyers to say you’d fully complied with the subpoena when you hadn’t.”
In an interview with Martha MacCallum on Monday afternoon, Baier said that during the hour-long sit down, Trump denied “flatly” some aspects of the indictment, including its account of a 2021 recording in which he acknowledged that documents were still classified and that he could no longer declassify them because he was out of the White House. He also denied having a document with war plans, Baier said.
