After the long-anticipated release of the full, declassified JFK files this past week, President Trump just shared his own beliefs behind what really happened with the assassination of John F. Kennedy.
During an audio interview with Clay Travis of Outkick, President Trump replied to a question asking him if he believes that Lee Harvey Oswald personally killed JFK.
“I do, and I always felt that,” Trump responded, before adding,
“Of course, he was… helped.”
President Trump did not clarify who is was exactly that he believed helped Oswald.

More from The Hill:
President Trump said he thinks Lee Harvey Oswald killed former President John F. Kennedy and didn’t act alone.
Trump spoke with Outkick radio host Clay Travis, where he was asked about the release of thousands of files related to the assassination.
“Do you think Oswald killed JFK personally?” Travis asked.
“I do, and I always felt that,” Trump replied. “Of course he was … helped.”
The Department of Justice has long confirmed that Oswald worked alone to kill Kennedy, but conspiracies over the decades have questioned if there was another person or multiple people involved.
What do you think?
Do you agree with President Trump’s view?
Who do you think “helped” Oswald with the assasination of JFK?
The U.S. government? The KGB? The CIA?
