Former president Donald Trump spoke of the “dark forces” in control of Joe Biden that are “aligned”against him in a recent interview with Dr. Phil McGraw.
During the interview, Trump shared his darkest moments after being convicted on 34 felony counts in New York.
McGraw spent an hour with Trump during his first interview since he became a “convicted felon.”

“We are not some banana republic, for God’s sake!” McGraw declared in the now-viral video.
“What are we gonna do next? Have a Putin poisoning posse and start finding political opponents foaming at the mouth at home, not so mysteriously dying in their La-Z-Boy recliners?” McGraw added.

McGraw pressed Trump about the personal struggles he currently faces.
“When the crowds aren’t cheering, what’s the darkest moment you think of?” Dr. Phil asked.
Trump responded:
“The hardest part for me is probably my family.”
“Because it’s very unfair to my family. I have a very good wife. She reads this crap. I have great kids.”
“I have a wonderful wife. I mean, it’s not easy for her to read this kind of stuff – that’s fake – that’s fake stuff,” Trump reiterated to McGraw.
The trial ended with Trump’s conviction on charges of falsifying business records relating to porn star Stormy Daniels.
During the interview, Trump also discussed his son Don Jr., calling him a “good kid” who faced accusations himself during the Russia probe.
The former president went on to slam California Rep. Adam Schiff, referring to him as “watermelon head” and an “unattractive guy both inside and outside.”

On the subject of the emotional toll of his legal battles had taken, he said, “You have to be very strong.”
“You’re fighting very evil forces and they’re very smart forces,” Trump said.
“There are people that control Biden. Totally true. I think I know who they are largely. But there are people that control him.”
“They’re very smart, very energetic. Possibly they’re real believers, what their sick ideology is. But you have to be smart and you have to have confidence,” he added.
McGraw stated to Trump at one point of the conversation, “They need to stop this. They need to stop pursuing you.”
Trump eventually reminisced:
“Oprah used to really like me. She was here many times. She loved my key lime pie. We have key lime pie – and she loved a lot of things about Mar-a-Lago.”
“We’ve sort of lost contact as the expression goes.”
“I even lost Oprah. Oprah used to like me so much. And you know I haven’t spoken to her since. But she’s a good person. Please give her my regards,” he explained to McGraw.
