A former employee of Donald Trump has alleged that “anybody” could access the rooms where the former president stored government secrets at his Mar-a-Lago resort.
In an interview on Monday with CNN, Brian Butler also described unwittingly helping Trump’s aide Walt Nauta load boxes of confidential materials that were flown away on the ex-president’s plane as federal officials met with him and his attorneys in June 2022 about his retention and handling of classified records.
“I had no clue – I mean we were just taking them out … [and] piling them up,” Butler said to CNN’s Kaitlan Collins. “I remember they were all stacked on top of each other, and then we’re lifting them up to the pilots.”
Butler, whom CNN reportedly identified as the “Trump Employee 5” described in a criminal indictment later filed against the former president and Nauta, said he decided to publicly speak out because voters deserved to know the truth as the presumptive Republican nominee seeks a second term in the White House in November.
