"I have not been briefed. No, I read it just like you did, said Trump. I was never a fan of his. I thought he was stupid. I thought he was, you know, a guy that only wanted to go into war. He liked killing people. I thought he was essentially a bad guy. But I'm not involved in that. No, you'd have to ask Pam Bondi about that."
"Are more raids coming, sir? asked another off camera reporter. Are more raids like that coming, sir? Are more raids like the one on John Bolton's house coming? More raids? I don't know, you'd have to ask the department of justice, replied the president, before continuing: They raided my house. I can tell you that. They did a big raid on my house. They took away everything that wasn't pinned down, and they took away some of that, too."
"They raided Mar-a-Lago. They went into my wife's area. They went into my son's area, my young son. And what they did was a disgrace. But, how did it work out? Oh, I see we're in the Oval Office. Oh, I guess it didn't work out too well for 'em, did it? They are bad people. They're sick. They're sick people, and they came in with their guns into Mar-a-Lago."
President Trump told reporters he had not been briefed on the search of John Bolton's home and office and said he learned about it from media reports. Trump expressed strong personal disdain for Bolton, calling him a bad actor who sought war and liked killing people. When asked whether similar raids would continue, Trump redirected the question to the Department of Justice and repeatedly referenced the FBI's raid on Mar-a-Lago. Trump described the Mar-a-Lago search as a disgrace, accused the agents involved of being "bad" and "sick" people, and noted he was not present during that raid.
