Audio Obtained Of Trump Discussing Classified Docs | The View

BUT, EARLIER THIS MONTH YOU KNOW WHO WAS CLEARED OF CHARGES WITH MISHANDLING CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS AND LAST YEAR HE INSISTED HE DID NOT SHOW A CLASSIFIED DOCUMENT TO ANYONE EVER ANYWHERE AND DID IT DURING A 2021 MEETING AT BEDMINSTER IN M.J. ABC NEWS HAS AN AUDIO OF THIS MEETING AND A CLIP. PLAY THE CLIP. >> WITH MILLEY, LET ME SEE THAT, I'LL SHOW YOU AN EXAMPLE. HE

SAID THAT I WANTED TO ATTACK IRAN. ISN'T IT AMAZING? I HAVE A BIG PILE OF PAPERS. THIS THING JUST CAME UP. LOOK, EXCEPT IT IS, LIKE, HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL. >> YEAH. >> SECRET. THIS IS SECRET INFORMATION. LOOK, LOOK AT THIS. YOU ATTACK AND -- >> HILLARY WOULD PRINT THAT OUT ALL THE TIME, YOU KNOW. >> SHE'D SEND IT. >> THIS WAS DONE BY THE MILITARY GIVEN TO

ME. I THINK WE CAN PROBABLY, RIGHT? >> I DON'T KNOW. WE'LL HAVE TO SEE. YEAH, WE'LL HAVE TO TRY TO -- >> DECLASSIFY IT. >> FIGURE OUT A -- >> SEE, AS PRESIDENT I COULD HAVE DECLASSIFIED IT. YEAH. >> BUT NOW I CAN'T, YOU KNOW. IT'S INCREDIBLE. BRING SOME COKES IN, PLEASE. >> GOODNESS. >> Whoopi: I SAID HE WAS CLEARED. CLEARLY I WAS OUT OF MY

MIND. HE WAS CHARGED WITH MISHANDLING CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS. WELL, THAT HAPPENS SOMETIMES BECAUSE I HAVE YOU KNOW WHO FOR TEA. >> Joy: WE ALL DO. >> Whoopi: HE SAYS THIS NEVER HAPPENED. HE'S SHOWN IT TO PEOPLE RIGHT NOW. >> Sunny: THE FUNNY THINK, HE WAS SHOWING THEM TO PEOPLE WHO WERE WRITING A MEMOIR SO HE WAS SHOWING THEM TO ANG AUTHOR, A PUBLISHER, STAFFER. >> Alyssa: ONE

OF HIS STAFFERS. >> Sunny: WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT YOU DIDN'T SHOW IT TO ANYONE BUT YOU SHOWED IT TO A JOURNALIST WHO IS WRITING A BOOK? >> Sara: THE HUBRIS AND DEALT CAT NATURE OF HIS EGO IS SO ON DISPLAY IN THIS VIDEO. THIS IS LIKE MIDDLE SCHOOL ANTICS OF WANTING SOMEONE TO THINK YOU'RE COOL SO YOU'RE GOING TO SHOW THEM THINGS. THERE WAS NO

SCREENING OF WHO WAS IN THAT ROOM BECAUSE I KNOW THERE WERE JOURNALISTS IN THERE. I GUESS YOU'RE NOT HEARING THEM MAYBE BUT THESE PEOPLE. THESE IS NATIONAL SECURITY. HE WAS TOYING WITH IT SO CAVALIERLY AND -- >> Sunny: THE IRANIAN GOVERNMENT. >> Sara: HIS ONE DEFENSE HE DIDN'T HAVE THOSE DOCUMENTS AND THAT HE COULD DECLASSIFY THEM, HE SAYS, SEE, AS PRESIDENT I COULD HAVE DECLASSIFIED. >>

Whoopi: COULD HAVE. >> Sara: NOW I CAN'T, YOU KNOW, BUT THIS IS STILL A SECRET. HE HAD THESE MEETINGS TAPE RECORDED BECAUSE HE'S SO PARANOID, BUT THEN HE -- >> Whoopi: OF HIMSELF. >> Sara: PARANOID IN GENERAL. HE IS ALWAYS ON THE RECORD INCRIMINATING HIMSELF. >> Sunny: HE KEEPS ON TALKING ABOUT HOW THEY'RE CLASSIFIED AND MAYBE NOT CLASSIFIED AND COULDN'T CLASSIFY THEM AND DECLASSIFY THEM. THE

ESPIONAGE ACT DOESN'T MATTER IF IT'S CLASSIFIED OR DECLASSIFIED. IT ONLY MATTERS THAT YOU HAD THEM IN YOUR POSSESSION AND WERE SUPPOSED TO GIVE THEM BACK. THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS. >> Joy: THE OTHER THING ABOUT HIM, HE'S REALLY STUPID. >> Sunny: YEAH. [ LAUGHTER ] >> Joy: HERE'S WHAT I MEAN BY THAT EXACTLY. NIXON WAS CAUGHT ON TAPE AND THAT WAS THE END OF HIS CAREER AS

PRESIDENT. THIS GUY IS CAUGHT ON TAPE TALKING ABOUT GRABBING WOMEN'S GENITALIA, NOW -- HE DIDN'T LEARN FROM THAT OR NIXON AND NOW HE'S CONTINUING TO TAPE HIMSELF. THAT IS REALLY THE DEFINITION OF STUPIDITY. >> Whoopi: HE WAS TALKING GO THE UKRAINE ON TAPE. >> Joy: YES. ALSO I WANT YOU TO FIND 11 MILLION -- >> Sunny: ON TAPE TOO. >> Alyssa: TWO THINGS THAT STAND OUT

TO ME OTHER THAN THE STAFFER LAUGHING. WAR PLANS ARE AMONG THE MOST CLASSIFIED SECRETS AND THE IRANIAN PEOPLE ARE GREAT PEOPLE. WE STAND IN SOLIDARITY WITH THEM. THE IRANIAN REGIME IS A ROGUE REGIME AND ONE OF THE MOST DANGEROUS ON THE PLANET. THEY'VE DIRECTED OUR U.S. SERVICE MEMBERS TO BE KILLED ABROAD. THEY RECENTLY -- IRANIAN BACKED OFFICIALS SUPPORTED A U.S. JOURNALIST TO BE ASSASSINATED ON U.S.

WAS WRONG. LOOK AT OUR WAR PLANS AND SECRETS AND CARED ABOUT WINNING A SPAT WITH MARK MILLEY THAN PROTECTING NATIONAL SECURITY. >> Sunny: WHY DO YOU THINK HE TOOK THOSE PARTICULAR DOCUMENTS? HE RETURNED 1 7 DOCUMENTS. HE WAS NOT CHARGED WITH THAT. IF YOU RETURN THEM, YOU DON'T GET CHARGED. IT'S JUST SIMPLE. >> Sara: THE JUICIEST, THEY HAD THE MOST STUFF IN THEM. >> Sunny: I

THINK -- ALLEGEDLY, IS IT POSSIBLE THAT HE THOUGHT THAT HE COULD SELL THEM? THAT HE THOUGHT HE COULD LEVERAGE THEM? >> Joy: EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM IS MAKING MONEY SO WHY NOT? >> Sunny: EXACTLY. I'M NOT SAYING IT. I DON'T WANT TO GET SUED. >> Alyssa: ABOUT THE SAUDIS, AS WELL. HE HAS FINANCIAL INTERESTS AND LIKE GOLF TOUR, I DON'T WANT TO SPECULATE TOO MUCH BUT THAT

IS I THINK WHAT THIS PROSECUTION IS GOING TO HAVE TO GO INTO. HE'S ALREADY BROKEN ENOUGH LAWS, WHETHER THERE IS INTENT AND IN TRYING TO UNDERMINE OUR U.S. NATIONAL SECURITY BEHIND IT BUT I MEAN THAT'S SOMETHING -- >> Sunny: WHAT'S THE WHY? YOU NEVER HAVE TO PROVE THE WHY TO PROVE THIS CASE. YOU DON'T HAVE TO PROVE INTENT. WHY DID HE DO IT? >> Joy: HE'S

A GRIFTER. HE'S A GRIFTER. >> Alyssa: SHORT OF THIS JUDGE SCREWING UP THE CASE I DON'T SEE HOW HE GETS LESS THAN FIVE TO TEN YEARS. >> Joy: LOCK HIM UP. LOCK HIM UP. [ APPLAUSE ] >> Alyssa: HE DISCUSSES THE CONTENTS OF CLASSIFIED INFORMATION WITH PEOPLE WITHOUT SECURITY CLEARANCES AND THEN ACKNOWLEDGES HE CAN'T DECLASSIFY SINCE HE'S NOT PRESIDENT. >> Sunny: IT'S A CUT AND DRIED

CASE. HE IS RIPE FOR A PLEA. AND I THINK I ASKED YOU THIS. WILL -- IS HE SOMEONE WHO WOULD TAKE A PLEA BUT THAT PLEA WOULD HAVE TO INCLUDE JAIL TIME? >> Sara: IT WOULD BE ADMISSION OF GUILT. HE CAN'T ADMIT HE LOST AN ELECTION. >> Whoopi: HE HAS A LOT OF EGO. >> Joy: MAJOR. >> Whoopi: ENOUGH TO THINK, YOU KNOW WHAT, MAYBE I'LL

GET THIS OVER TO THE SAUDIS AND GIVE IT TO THEM AND NO ONE WILL MESS WITH THEM ANYMORE OR GIVE THESE TO PUTIN. I'M NOT SAYING THAT'S WHAT HE DID BUT THERE ARE A MILLION REASONS AND THAT WE WILL NEVER KNOW BECAUSE HE WON'T SAY WHY HE DID IT BUT I'M ANNOYED HE CAN CONTINUE TO DO THIS AND I SEE PEOPLE WHO, YOU KNOW, WERE LATE

ON THEIR TAXES, THEY END UP IN JAIL FOREVER. I SEE PEOPLE DOING STUFF, AND THIS GUY DOES -- HE SEEMS TO BE ABLE TO GET AWAY WITH EVERYTHING AND IT'S REALLY STARTING TO IRRITATE ME. >> Sunny: NOT THIS TIME HOPEFULLY. >> Whoopi: I'M HOPEFUL BUT I JUST, YOU KNOW, YOU SEE WHO IS IN PLACE, YOU SEE WHAT'S GOING ON. I'M JUST LIKE, OKAY, I'M WATCHING ALL

OF YOU, JUDGES, I WANT TO SEE WHAT IS MORE IMPORTANT. IS THE LAW MORE IMPORTANT, OR IS THIS MAN MORE IMPORTANT? THAT'S WHAT I NEED TO KNOW. >> >> Joy: IF HE GOES TO TRIAL AND HAVE ONE JUROR WHO IS A MAGA NUTCASE YOU HAVE A HUNG JURY. >> Sunny: YOU COULD RETRY THAT CASE AND -- >> Joy: IT DOESN'T MEAN HE'S EXONERATED, YOU HAVE TO

DO IT AGAIN. MAYBE THERE'S ANOTHER MAGA PERSON. THIS COULD GO ON INDEFINITELY. >> Whoopi: YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE CAN'T GO ON INDEFINITELY. YOU HAVE A LEGAL NOTE. SUPER BOWL TRUMP HAS PLEADED NOT GUILTY TO 37 CHARGES RELATED TO HIS HANDLING OF CLASSIFIED MATERIALS. HIS CAMPAIGN SPOKESPERSON ADDED, QUOTE, THE AUDIOTAPE PROVIDES CONTEXT PROVING ONCE AGAIN THAT PRESIDENT TRUMP DID NOTHING WRONG AT ALL. >> Joy: THAT'S ONE

WAY TO LOOK AT IT. >> Whoopi: I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS SO WE'RE JUST GOING TO GO TO BREAK AND GIVE OURS
