Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday said his boasting about having a secret document detailing U.S. plans for an attack on Iran as “bravado,” telling ABC News and Semafor “I was talking and holding up papers and talking about them, but I had no documents. I didn’t have any documents.”
“I just held up a whole pile of — my desk is loaded up with papers,” Trump said. “I have papers from 25 different things,” but said that he didn’t mean top secret “plans” when he used that word on the tape. “Did I use the word plans?” he said. “What I’m referring to is magazines, newspapers, plans of buildings. I had plans of buildings. You know, building plans? I had plans of a golf course.”
