Donald Trump has been accused of discussing sensitive information about U.S. nuclear submarines with Anthony Pratt, an Australian billionaire. Of course, the criminal defendant denies it.
Close Ties With Trump
Reportedly, Pratt had close ties with Trump throughout his presidency. As such, he was interviewed by the special counsel investigating the potential felon’s theft of classified documents and refusal to return them.
Trump’s Reckless Behavior
Pratt is not a U.S. citizen. Despite this, Trump reportedly shared sensitive information with him at Mar-a-Lago. The Australian billionaire, having no obligation to keep this information to himself, then went on to share it with “more than a dozen foreign officials, several of his own employees, and a handful of journalists.”
Fake and Ridiculous
A spokesperson for Trump said that the aforementioned claims “lack proper context and relevant information.” The former president addressed the situation himself too. On social media, he said the claims are “false and ridiculous.”
The Best Submarines
Trump wrote: “The ridiculous story put out today about me talking to a Mar-a-Lago member about U.S. submarines is false and ridiculous, other than the fact that I will often state that we make the best submarines and military equipment anywhere in the world.”
The Greatness of America
The criminal defendant continued: “These fake stories are put out by corrupt prosecutors trying to interfere with the presidential election of 2024 and, based on the polling where I am 60 points up on Republican candidates and 11 points up on Crooked Joe Biden, the people of our country aren’t buying it. With that being said, I will always promote the greatness of America – and its military equipment.”
Creating Jobs in the U.S.
Trump concluded: “The alternative would be for allies and others to buy from Russia, China, or elsewhere. I like creating jobs in America, which was one of my most successful achievements as president!”
The Internet’s Response
News of the accusations and Trump’s response to them was shared across the internet. For the most part, people condemned the former president and his alleged crimes – but that didn’t stop his fans from showing up every now and then to defend him.
A Career Criminal
Critics of Trump often expressed a lack of surprise. Terms like “career criminal” came up a lot and people said more crimes would come to light in the future. His supporters, on the other hand, dismissed the allegations as “propaganda,” “Democrat lies,” and “fake news.”
The Tangerine Traitor
One social media commenter said: “Why isn’t Tangerine Traitor in jail? He is without a doubt the dumbest president ever. Hard to believe he still has so much support from the Criminal Party. Imagine what they would have done if this had been Biden.”
Espionage and Treason
Plenty of people expressed their frustrations regarding the legal response to Trump’s crimes. One person wrote: “So, Trump shares our nation’s secrets and he isn’t even investigated for at the very least espionage or at the most treason? What are they waiting for?”
A Serial Liar
Others discussed the former president’s proven tendency to lie: “Trump is a moron! Everything that escapes his mouth is either an outright lie or an exaggeration. His stupidity is on constant display because he can never keep his mouth shut.”
A Heartless Capitalist
Another commenter said: “Everything is a product to Trump. He would sell air if he thought he could find a buyer. The man has no morals. When he isn’t selling something, he’s trying to take something for free. Just ask hundreds of women.”
Lock Him Up
Several people called for the former president to be incarcerated. One person wrote: “If Donald denies, that is a confirmation of the report. We already heard him on the record discussing confidential information with those who had no right to hear it. Traitor! Lock him up!”
A Domestic Terrorist
Others used some very strong words to describe Trump: “We don’t need foreign terrorists when we have a terrorist running for the presidency. Didn’t he do enough damage to this country already? He roams free within our borders causing chaos, spewing lies, threatening judges, stirring violence, and pledging revenge. How do we not see this as a problem?”
Trump’s Insatiable Ego
Another person said: “So, he’s calling Pratt a liar? Will he say that to his face? Nope because he’s a big-mouthed coward. His entire life, he’s been trying to boost his insatiable ego by bragging. He’s the most heinous traitor this country has ever seen. His time has come. Karma is standing right behind him. Watching him go down is lovely and long overdue. Lock him up!”
A National Security Nightmare
Quite a few people put the former president’s behavior down to narcissistic tendencies. One such individual wrote: “Trump was a national security nightmare from day one of his administration. The moron has no concept of national security. It is all about his narcissistic personality. Trump and his MAGAts are guilty of treason.”
Biden, Biden, Biden
As is often the case, a fair number of Trump’s supporters attempted to make it all about President Biden. “Fake news as always. President Trump is a true patriot and no patriot would do such a thing. Crooked Joe Biden, who also had documents, would. Perhaps they should investigate him,” one person said.
A Politically Motivated War on Righteousness
Another MAGA Republican wrote: “More Democrat lies and propaganda. All a politically motivated war on righteousness. Leave Donald Trump alone. He was the best president our country ever saw and he will be again.”
