News: Aerial views of Mar-a-Lago
(77WABC) — Some allies of former President Donald Trump are urging him to publicly release surveillance footage of FBI agents executing a search warrant on his Mar-a-Lago residence.
When asked earlier this week by Fox News’ Sean Hannity whether the footage would be released, Trump’s son Eric said, “Absolutely Sean, at the right time. ”
Some of Trump’s aides and allies have encouraged the former President to make some of the footage available to the public, believing it could send a jolt of energy through the republican party’s base. There have been discussions about featuring the August footage in campaign-style ads, believing the footage could bolster trump’s claims of political persecution.
