Dem rips 'delusional' Republican who says Trump stored classified docs 'in a safe manner'

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) fired back at Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee after one claimed that former President Donald Trump stored classified documents in a "safe manner" in a Mar-a-Lago bathroom.

"I can't let go that one of my Republican colleagues just stated that the boxes containing national security secrets that were seized at Mar-a-Lago were stored in a safe manner," Swalwell said at a Thursday hearing. "Quote, stored in a safe manner."

Swalwell then shared a poster-sized photograph of boxes of documents in a Mar-a-Lago bathroom.

"This is the bathroom at Mar-a-Lago with over a dozen boxes of national security secrets that were 'stored in a safe manner,'" the lawmaker explained. "My friends, you are living on Fantasy Island. That's where cults live, so that makes sense."

He noted that Trump's bathroom was "a mess."

"This committee has been a mess, and this Congress is a mess," he added. "This is not stored in a safe manner. It's delusional to say that."
