One of Donald Trump's most high-profile critics says the developments in his latest indictment are hard to believe.

A US court filing has revealed a search warrant into Trump's Twitter was launched in January, after it found probable cause for criminal offences in 2020.

Twitter has since been fined $350,000 US-dollars for delays in complying with the warrant.

CNN host Jake Tapper told Mike Hosking it's all hard to stomach.

He says the idea that he was going to be the one to convince tens of millions of Americans not to believe the truth, including the election, is unbelievable.

Jake Tapper has written his sixth book, called All the Demons Are Here, which transports readers to the 1970s underground world of cults, celebrities, tabloid journalism, serial killers, disco, and UFOs and is out now.
