Australian Billionaire Talking Trump Secrets

Trump has no filter between his brain and his mouth

Relationship with Donald Trump
When Donald Trump became US president in 2017, Pratt became a paying member of Mar-a-Lago and pledged to invest another $2 billion in American manufacturing jobs. Over the next few years, he visited Mar-a-Lago about ten times, and got to know Trump. In 2018, he visited the White House when Australia's prime minister, Malcolm Turnbull, was present. In 2019, Trump publicly called Pratt a friend and praised him for funding a Pratt Industries plant in Wapakoneta, Ohio.[93]

Nuclear submarine secrets
In October 2023, it was alleged that Trump had discussed classified technical aspects of U.S. nuclear submarines with Pratt, and that Pratt then shared the information with up to 45 other people "including six journalists, 11 of his company's employees, 10 Australian officials, and three former Australian prime ministers".[93][94]

Secretly recorded conversations of Pratt show him expressing admiration for Trump that was mixed with surprise for how often Trump shattered various norms as president.

“He knows exactly what to say and what not to say so that he avoids jail, but gets so close to it that it looks to everyone when he’s breaking the law,” Pratt said in one recording. In another portion, Pratt spoke of a shocking conversation between Donald Trump and Melania Trump, in which the former president allegedly asked his wife parade around in a bikini by the poolside to show other men “what they were missing.”

Melania, who was sitting next to him at dinner. He said ‘I asked Melania to walk around the pool in a bikini so all the other guys could get a look at what they were missing. Then Melania said back to him ‘I’ll do that when you walk around with me in your bikini.’

BREAKING: Leaked Audio of Australian Billionaire Talking Trump Secrets Released By 60 Minutes Australia

Former President Donald Trump was more open with state secrets than previously reported, according to newly-leaked audio recordings published by 60 Minutes Australia.

The news segment, which ran early Sunday morning U.S. time, revealed Australian billionaire Anthony Pratt talking about his experiences and relationship with the former president. Pratt is the central figure in the ABC News report from earlier this month that Trump casually discussed classified information about nuclear submarines.

The New York Times reported on the leaked audio as well and reported:

The private comments, captured while Mr. Trump was still president, provide a rare glimpse into how a businessman on the other side of Mr. Trump’s transactions actually viewed the New York real estate developer’s tactics — with a mix of blunt acknowledgment and admiration for someone so willing to test the boundaries of the presidency.

On the recordings, Mr. Pratt recounts how Mr. Trump shared with him in December 2019 what he describes as elements of a conversation the president had with Iraq’s leader right after a U.S. military strike there aimed at Iranian-backed forces. Days later, a U.S. drone strike in Baghdad would kill Iran’s top security and intelligence commander.

At one point, Mr. Pratt said, Mr. Trump discussed the phone call he had with President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine earlier that year that had helped lead to Mr. Trump’s first impeachment. “That was nothing compared to what I usually do,” Mr. Trump said, in Mr. Pratt’s recounting.

It is not clear whether Mr. Pratt shared these accounts with prosecutors or whether prosecutors are aware of the recordings.

“Behind closed doors, however, Mr. Pratt described Mr. Trump’s business practices as being “like the mafia,” the NY Times report, as well as the allegation that Trump asked his wife, then First Lady. Melania Trump, to parade around the pool at Mar-a-Lago in a bikini “so all the other guys could get a look at what they were missing.”

Further, Pratt claimed Trump was extremely candid in his assessment of his infamous phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky — which the former president has publicly described as “perfect”
