The proverbial you-know-what has finally hit the fan in Donald Trump long-running, now-infamous stolen document scandal, after Garland-appointed DOJ Special Counsel Jack Smith formally indicted the disgraced ex-president on a staggering 37 different counts, all related to the classified government materials he stole from the White House, hid at his Mar-a-Lago resort, lied about having in his possession, and then repeatedly refused to return despite multiple attempts and legal subpoenas from the federal government.

Experts have said that, all together, the charges lodged against Trump by Smith in the document case could stack up to a life sentence for the scandal-plagued, deeply corrupt former guy.

But to make matters that much worse for Trump, one of his own former officials has now spoken out to expose even more of the ex-president’s crimes and corruption that were going on behind closed doors.

Former Trump-era National Security Advisor John Bolton sat for an interview with former Biden Press Secretary turned MSNBC host Jen Psaki, where they discussed the document scandal and subsequent indictment, and Bolton confirmed that Donald’s obsession with classified materials is not a new one.

Bolton — who has long been on bad terms with his former boss thanks in large part to the release of his tell-all book that exposed Trump on a variety of levels — said that he personally witnessed, firsthand, Donald Trump’s deep-seated obsession with taking and storing classified materials that were given to him during intelligence briefings when he was in office as the US president.

“I think he was kind of a collector of things that he thought were of interest to him for some reason or another. Clippings, mementos, classified documents,” the former Nat. Sec. Advisor told Paski. “It was very disturbing.”

“We could see in the course of meetings with him, intelligence briefings, decision meetings that sometimes he liked to retain things. And it became the practice just to make sure that we got them back in as many cases as we could,” Bolton went on to explain. “Obviously, we failed in many cases, but it was it was a pattern that was evident to me from sort of my early.”

Bolton went on to recall one of his most disturbing memories of Trump mishandling classified information, recounting the time that the then-president tweeted out classified images of a failed Iranian missile launch to his millions of followers that was given to him in confidence by intelligence officials.

“There’s no conceivable reason for that, except it made him feel good to be able to do it. That’s one example. But it’s typical of the mindset, in my view,” Bolton explained in conclusion.
