Trump Whines to Sean Hannity in First TV Comments After Target Letter
The same day Donald Trump announced that he is the target of Justice Department Special Counsel Jack Smith’s Jan. 6 investigation, the former president complained to longtime ally Sean Hannity during a pre-taped Fox News town hall that he was “bothered” by the developments yet would not be “frightened.”
In Trump’s second town hall on the conservative network since the beginning of June, Hannity began with a softball question, asking his pal how he seems so unfazed by the several criminal investigations he faces.
Trump was indicted in March on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in a case brought by the Manhattan District Attorney over hush money payments to Stormy Daniels. In June, a federal grand jury impaneled by Smith issued a 37-count indictment for willful retention of national defense information and conspiring to obstruct justice, among several other crimes, relating to his alleged mishandling of classified documents at his Florida estate, Mar-a-Lago, while no longer president.
