It's upside down day in Magadonia where the twice indicted former President feels that he's "exonerated" after a recording aired Monday night on CNN that includes Donald Trump indicating to others that don't have a security clearance that he was holding a secret Pentagon document with plans to attack Iran if needed.

The remarks captured on the recording, where Trump refers to the papers as "highly confidential," directly contradict what he told Fox News's Bret Baier, denying having any documents with him.

But to Trump, he's exonerated. The one-termer took to Truth Social to yell at Special Counsel Jack Smith.

"The Deranged Special Prosecutor, Jack Smith, working in conjunction with the DOJ & FBI, illegally leaked and "spun" a tape and transcript of me which is actually an exoneration, rather than what they would have you believe," the twice-impeached former President wrote last night. "This continuing Witch Hunt is another ELECTION INTERFERENCE Scam. They are cheaters and thugs!"

This morning, Trump unleashed an all-caps post with Jack Smith still occupying his mind. He misspelled Joe Biden's name. He is mad. He is MAGA mad!

"COULD SOMEBODY PLEASE EXPLAIN TO THE DERANGED, TRUMP HATING JACK SMITH, HIS FAMILY, AND HIS FRIENDS, THAT AS PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, I COME UNDER THE PRESIDENTIAL RECORDS ACT, AS AFFIRMED BY THE CLINTON SOCKS CASE, NOT BY THIS PSYCHOS' FANTASY OF THE NEVER USED BEFORE ESPIONAGE ACT OF 1917," Trump wrote. '"SMITH" SHOULD BE LOOKING AT CROOKED JOE BIDDEN AND ALL OF THE CRIMES THAT HE HAS PERPETRATED ON THE AMERICAN PUBLIC, INCLUDING THE MILLIONS & MILLIONS OF DOLLARS HE EXTORTED FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES!'

Trump keeps admitting to his crimes.

Trump's whatabout is false. Everything Trump wrote is a shameless lie to distract us from his crimes. The former President is an idiot who admitted to his crimes, allowed his confession to be taped, and then denied it.
