Donald Trump goes berserk about a “red haired weirdo,” gives something away
Over the weekend it was revealed that Donald Trump didn’t just share classified nuclear submarine details with Australian billionaire Anthony Pratt, Trump apparently did it within the context of what Pratt later described as mafia-like business tactics. The New York Times also reported that Pratt has since been interviewed by Jack Smith, and is a potential witness against Trump at trial.
Late on Sunday night, Trump threw a fit about the whole thing. He went on a social media bender about how Pratt is “red haired weirdo from Australia” while insisting that “I never spoke to him about Submarines.” Well okay then.
There’s actually something to this. Trump’s decision to attack Anthony Pratt, particularly in such weirdly personal fashion, gives away that Trump is afraid of whatever Pratt told Jack Smith. Trump is once again projecting. And by the way, Trump’s oddly specific declaration that he never spoke to Pratt about submarines means that Trump definitely spoke to Pratt about submarines.
