'They know he's busted': Morning Joe hearing Trump pals 'really concerned' about Mar-a-Lago case
MSNBC's Joe Scarborough said Donald Trump and his inner circle are "really concerned" about the evidence turned up by special counsel Jack Smith in the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case.
The special counsel has a recording of Trump from July 2021 discussing the classified documents he took home from the White House, and the "Morning Joe" host said the former president's denials are not very persuasive.
"Everything he just said there was wrong," Scarborough said. "It really was, no need to even tick through it. I will say, though, you look at the two cases that should cause Donald Trump the most concern, Georgia and, at least in my opinion, Georgia and the documents case. They've got the tapes, they've got the receipts, they've got his own voice, the voice that the grand jury heard. He can call it witch hunt all he wants, but they've got him dead to right on intent, on stealing the documents."
The Department of Justice has reportedly had the recordings for months, although their existence was only reported this week, but Scarborough said his sources close to Trump seemed to know last week that the evidence would soon be made public.
"It is so interesting, you're hearing that reporting, because I started hearing that a week ago, that despite the bravado, Trump himself and people close to Trump are really, really concerned about the documents case," Scarborough said, "and they understand that he's busted. Now, I heard that a week ago. I'm wondering if this tape had something to do with that. People who have been whistling past the graveyard the last five, six, seven years, there's been a change around Trump's people, and they know he is busted. Even Trump is deeply concerned about this."
