While Conservatives and Liberals here hiss and spit at each other here about which President is more guilty of harboring classified documents, it's possible a clearer set of rules about what a President may (or may not do) with classified documents. The end result may not be all bad folks. So, maybe it's time for both sides to turn down the heat a bit and let Congress and the Judicial branch sort this out.

They occasionally get it right. :)

Best get your facts straight. Ole' Joe was only vice president when he last handled the documents they're finding.

May I suggest a classified papers death match.

Just place a corvette in a ring and the first to find the classified document with the keys to the corvette and drives off with it wins and can be the next President

Just or fun, make sure the keys don't work and have DeSantis nearby ready to take the reigns.

While I agree on letting DOJ sort it out, the rules are clear enough. It just looks like at that level some think it OK to play it fast and loose.

You mean he can hotwire a Corvette? Amazing! Not just a hack politician, but a man of marketable skills.:auiqs.jpg:

It seems that during transition documents are getting accidentally packaged...

It would seem a four eyes process of anything leaving the White House should be in place...

This has happened in a lot of administrations and it wasn't a major problem unless someone knowingly hid this from the people who were tasked at minding these documents..

There is no debate about which President did what.
One was a President.
The other was a Vice President.
The difference between those two dealing with secured documents is galactic.

The reins of a car?

I think you're right on the money. So first acknowledge that some top secret (or less) documents have to be concealed from the eyes of the other party. And along with that, the fact that the system causes more interest in doing dirt on the other party than seeing foreign policy as being much more important. That's not the way it works in the world's other countries, for the most part.

A solution?

Separate the president from foreign policy? Make him/her more of a figurehead?

There's a downside in any solution.

All I'll say for now from a Canadian POV: Trudeau won't be giving the order for Canada to go to war!
