Donald Trump said on Friday night that he believes the FBI tried to overthrow his presidency. According to The Guardian, the president alleged that the FBI was “spying” on him during his 2016 campaign. His claims were in response to a report that surfaced, alleging that an FBI lawyer may have altered a document related to surveillance efforts on former campaign adviser Carter Page.
The FBI obtained a warrant to monitor the communications from Page in 2016 and 2017 as part of the Russia investigation. It’s alleged that one individual may have changed some information. While speaking to Fox & Friends, Trump focused on the allegation to repeat his frequent claim that he was spied on and that the Russia investigation is a “witch hunt” against him.
“This was spying on my campaign – something that has never been done in the history of our country,” Trump said. “They tried to overthrow the presidency.”
