Former President Donald Trump says President Joe Biden was “convicted” of mishandling classified documents.
During an interview with Fox News’ Laura Ingraham, Trump was asked, “Why do people not trust the upper echelon of the FBI at this point?”
“Well, they’ve had a bad period of time. I mean, they raided Mar-a-Lago. That’s not so good. And I guess, we bring a suit. You know, we won that whole case. We won it the right way. We won it because won it. We won it in court. It was a big thing. Hardly got any publicity,” he said in reference to the charges he was facing for allegedly mishandling classified documents.
He continued to reference the investigation Biden faced after classified documents were discovered in his various properties.

“Now, with Biden, he really was convicted of that case,” Trump claimed.
Biden was not convicted or even charged.
And the former president said, “He was let go of that case.”
“They said he was incompetent and, therefore, he can’t stand trial. And yet, he would’ve been allowed to be president. Think of that. So, he sort of semi-won it. Course, you don’t wanna have that kind of a victory. You win because you’re incompetent. But he actually was guilty,” he added.
Former Special Counsel Robert Hur declined to bring charges in the case, arguing Biden would “likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.”
“Based on our direct interactions with and observations of him, he is someone for whom many jurors will want to identify reasonable doubt. It would be difficult to convince a jury that they should convict him — by then a former president well into his eighties — of a serious felony that requires a mental state of willfulness,” Hur continued.
