The FBI was searching the home of former national security adviser John Bolton, who has become a critic of President Trump, according to news reports.

The searches, seemingly the most significant public step the Justice Department has taken against a perceived enemy of the president, are likely to elicit fresh concerns that the Trump administration is using its law enforcement powers to target the Republican's foes.

In an exclusive interview with the Deseret News, Bolton talked national security, what a presidential candidate should be talking about and whether Trump will win.
