Former President Donald Trump still has a reverence for the FBI, even after the Russia collusion debacle and Mar-a-Lago raid. But he’s adamant the bureau needs to be banned from meddling in elections by pressuring social media firms to censor Americans’ opinions.
In a wide-ranging interview Tuesday with Just the News, America’s 45th president said it was “shocking to me” when Twitter released internal files showing the extent of FBI efforts to censor content during the 2020 election, including the creation of a command center in San Francisco just for that mission.
“You always want to love the FBI and all you know it stands for, the image of what it stands for,” Trump told the John Solomon Reports podcast and “Just the News, No Noise” television show on Real America’s Voice.
“And then you see where the FBI was actually rigging the election,” he continued, “where they were suppressing bad news on Biden and they say push the good news on Biden, and the exact opposite on me.”
A poll released last month found three-quarters of American voters believed they lacked “critical” information about Hunter Biden’s laptop during the 2020 elections, and half would have voted differently if they had known the Biden scandal allegations were authentic.
