Trump has also tried to paint a picture of the charges as election interference, behind which is the president seeking another term Joe Biden and this campaign team.
In his own words, Habba would also not recommend that his client engage in any kind of plea bargaining in the case.

Federal level charges are about Trump’s possession of classified documents after his presidency. Trump had kept about 11,000 documents at his Mar-a-Lago mansion in Florida.

He emphasizes that the situation is very different now.
“He’s not the victim here,” Barr adds.
According to Barr, Trump was completely wrong that he had the right to keep the documents in question. The former Minister of Justice describes the documents Trump had as one of the country’s most sensitive secrets.
