Why did the FBI raid Donald Trump’s home?
And has this given him the upper hand in the 2024 elections?
Former President Donald Trump said FBI agents raided his Mar-a-Lago estate – and broke into his safe.
According to Reuters, “FBI agents entered Trump’s home as part of an investigation into his removal of boxes of classified records from the White House when his term as president ended in 2021”.
Donald Trump is facing several probes, but the unprecedented search of a former president’s home, is a major escalation into the records investigation.
The U.S. Justice Department did not comment on the house raid.
But Trump said it involved a “large group of FBI agents”.
There is a federal law which permits US presidents from keeping memos, letter, notes, emails and faxes related to a presidents official duties.
But a raid at this scale, has to be approved by a judge and according to Reuters,
It was most likely approved by “FBI Director Christopher Wray, a Trump appointee, and his boss, Attorney General Merrick Garland, who was appointed by Trump’s successor and political rival, President Joe Biden”.
Trump’s allies in the house of representatives and senate rallied support in favor of the former President.
And said that this was an attempt- to sideline Trump as a possible 2024 presidential contender.
They have also vowed to probe the FBI’s raid if they get control of the U.S. House.
In terms of what’s come of all of it all, well, Donald Trump seized the FBI raid to boost his 2024 Presidential bid.
It’s still unclear if Trump would ever garner the momentum he had in 2016.
But it’s certain that he has strategically used this raid- to boost support for his candidacy.
