The important question about Joe Biden having classified documents from when he was a Senator is how did he get them? It looks like he broke the law by stealing them from a SKIF. Why did he take them to begin with. Was he selling them to Russian and China?Sure he does.................. by just thinking about it.
NOT yet.

The FBI searched Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s Florida residence because, as federal prosecutors said in a fiery court filing in August, they believed not only did the former president possess “dozens” of boxes “likely to contain classified information” but also that “efforts were likely taken to obstruct the government’s investigation.” In that search, the FBI said it did remove over 100 classified documents, some of which reportedly contained information about nuclear weapons. That’s all part of just one investigation into possible violations of the Espionage Act, the improper handling of federal records, and obstruction of a federal investigation.
Sure did a lot of good..........IF you use it.
NOT the point, one lied about documents, refused to turn them over, and had to have a warrant served.
Biden didn't.
Plus Newsweek (hardly a conservative news outlet) feels the classified stash of documents Joe Biden had are more serious than Trump’s.
Biden's Theft of Classified Docs Is Serious. DOJ Isn't Taking It Seriously
Then-Vice President Biden stole these classified documents before he left the Obama White House in January 2017.

It simply isn't credible for Biden to claim his criminal theft of classified records was merely an accident, with four sets of stolen classified records, strewn about in three separate personal locations, moved multiple times. One of the locations is the garage in Biden's Wilmington, Delaware personal home: the same garage, that is, which in recent memory has been teeming with a full television production crew. Even worse, it's the same garage and home office (where even more classified documents were discovered) that international influence-peddler and now-First Son Hunter Biden lived in during his crack addiction, and reported he rented from his father for $49,910 per month—the exact same amount the Biden family received from a Chinese energy firm—in a background check screening in 2018.

Biden tried to reassure the public last week by saying the stolen classified documents were in a locked garage next to his Corvette. That's hardly comforting. Biden revealed his criminal intent, admitting he knew he had possession of classified documents. His flippant attitude toward the situation should make clear that the Biden Justice Department and Congress must conduct robust national security investigations.
As a matter of clarity, let's contrast Biden's theft of classified documents with Trump's lawful handling of presidential records. As the commander-in-chief under our Constitution, the president of the United States has the absolute power to declassify records as he sees fit. In addition, under the Presidential Records Act, a departing president can take a personal copy of any of his presidential records—classified or not. The vice president is afforded neither of these privileges.
