Former President Donald Trump continued to lash out at his primary opponents and once again insisted he did not break any laws in his handling of classified government documents, in a Fox News town hall hosted by Sean Hannity on Thursday.

When presented with the growing list of GOP primary challengers the former president was dismissive of their chances claiming that many of them are polling at 1% and “some are at zero,” so he doesn’t think the size of the field really matters.

The mention of former vice president Mike Pence’s name was greeted with boos from the audience while Trump insisted on referring to Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson as “Ada Hutchinson” and said, “nobody knows who the hell he is.”

Not mentioning Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis by name Trump said he’s really gone after “the one who’s second,” and claimed this has caused DeSantis to slide down in the polls.

Trump also brought up DeSantis’ dust-up with an Associated Press reporter earlier on Thursday saying “you’re not allowed to get angry at the press.”

When asked about reports of the DOJ’s being in possession of an audio recording where he purportedly admits to being in possession of classified military documents, Trump said he doesn’t know “anything about it,” but insisted everything he did was right.

Trump then insisted he “100%” abided by the Presidential Records Act and reiterate that he has the “right to declassify as president.”

Hannity was met with a chorus of boos from the audience when he asked Trump why he chooses to call people names and said the 2024 may be decided by people in the “middle” who may want Trump to tone down his rhetoric. Hannity then told the crowd “leave me alone,” as it was not his question but something that people were asking him.
