Donald Trump has said he did not know a raid by the FBI on the home of his former adviser turned critic, John Bolton, was planned and that he expected to be briefed by the justice department on it.

I tell the group I don't want to know, but just you have to do what you have to do. I don't want to know about it," Trump said, adding I'm not a fan of John Bolton. He's a real sort of a lowlife. He's not a smart guy. But he could be very unpatriotic. I'm going to find out."
