George Papadopoulos says he would not have pleaded guilty to lying to the feds in 2017 based on what he knows today, including special counsel Robert Mueller’s finding of no conclusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.

“I personally feel vindicated,” said the former Trump policy adviser, who is promoting his book, “Deep State Target: How I Got Caught in the Crosshairs of the Plot to Bring Down President Trump.”

In an interview with The Post, Papadopoulos blamed the Obama administration for his troubles.

“They were trying to entrap me for something I had nothing to do with — Russia and collusion. I’ve written a book about it,” he said.

Asked if he would have pleaded guilty today, he responded, “No. Absolutely not.”

Papadopoulos pleaded guilty in October 2017 to lying about his interactions with British professor Joseph Mifsud, who claimed the Russians had dirt on Hillary Clinton.

Papadopoulos, who served 12 days behind bars, charged that the Obama administration’s role in launching the probe of Trump “makes Watergate look like small potatoes,”

“There should be a new investigation into the prior Obama administration. I hold Obama responsible for this Russia probe,” he continued.

He claimed Obama officials and spies from governments in the UK and Australia were working in cahoots to try to take down the Trump campaign with a Russia conspiracy.

Papadopolous’ book reads like a spy novel. He writes that many of the overseas diplomats and professors he dealt with were connected to foreign governments or US intelligence agencies — in other words, spies. They were recording his conversations and baiting him with questions about Russia, according to his book.

Papadopoulos, who has moved to Hollywood, said his story has the potential to hit the silver screen.

“It’s definitely something Americans would find interesting. The tale is stranger than fiction,” he said.

In the book, he admits to being ambitious and trying to make a name for himself by persuading the Trump campaign about his connections.

“I also had faith in myself. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of placing too much faith in some of the people I came in contact with, and I’ve paid the price for being open and un-guarded,” Papadopoulos says in the book’s prologue.
