Pure paranoia or calculated indignation?
Donald Trump suggested on his social network on Wednesday that the federal police (FBI) may have "planted" evidence against him, protesting that no one could approach the places searched at his Florida home at the start of week.
“The FBI and other federal agents did not let anyone, not even my lawyers, near the areas that were searched and examined during the search at Mar-a-Lago,” the Republican complained on its Truth Social platform.
"They asked everyone to leave the place, they wanted to be alone, without witnesses to see what they were doing, taking or, which I do not hope, 'placing'", he accused , without substantiating his remarks.
“Why did they strongly insist that no one observe them, and get everyone out?
“, insisted Donald Trump.
Total silence at the FBI
Monday evening, the spectacular search of the residence of the billionaire in Florida by the federal police caused a wave of indignation among conservatives.
Never had a former tenant of the White House been worried by justice in this way.
Does this search have to do with the many boxes that Donald Trump took with him when he left the White House in January 2021?
Is it linked to the investigation into his responsibility in the assault on the Capitol?
Does it rather concern the suspicions of financial fraud of which the Trump Organization is the subject in New York?
Neither the Justice Department nor the FBI commented, observing total silence.
Donald Trump, who ostensibly flirts with a new candidacy in 2024 and claims his innocence in each of these cases, claims to be the subject of a witch hunt and denounces "political persecution".
