The two-minute clip was first played by CNN late on Monday and later obtained by ABC and CBS.

It comes from an interview Mr Trump gave at his Bedminster, New Jersey golf club in July 2021 for people working on a memoir by his former chief of staff Mark Meadows.

Parts of the recording's transcript were cited as evidence in special counsel Jack Smith's 49-page indictment of Mr Trump on charges he had mishandled classified documents after leaving office.

The audio file includes a moment when Mr Trump seems to indicate he is holding a secret Pentagon document with plans to attack Iran.
