We donāt see these kinds of poll results with republicans do we? Generally like 80%-90% of republicans defend Trumpās scandals in knee jerk fashion. Thereās no nuance either. Itās just ānope! All a witch huntā
The differences between the two document scandals are remarkable:
1. The FBI visited Mar-a-lago months before the raid, had full access to all the documents in the storage room, were offered anything they wanted to take with them in or outside the storage room. They took nothing. All they asked was that an additional lock be put on the storage room door which was done. (The same lock they broke off in the raid.)
The FBI seems disinterested in any documents in Biden's possession.
2. The Justice Dept. is allowing Biden's lawyers/staff with no security clearance to look for any stray classified documents in multiple locations. Obviously these people can turn over whatever they choose to turn over and sort of overlook anything that they don't want to turn over. No photos of folders or other 'evidence' has been released to the press.
Trump's lawyer(s) and staff were not allowed to be present during the Mar-a-lago raid, in fact were banished to outside the physical premises, the FBI wanted the security cameras turned off, and they could stage any scene they wanted, plant anything they wanted with complete immunity, and what they did stage for a photo op was immediately released to the press.
3. As President, Trump had full authority to have any classified documents he wanted to have in his possession and full authority to declassify anything he wanted to declassify. He has stated that all documents in his possession at the time the FBI visited Mar-a-lago and during the raid were declassified.
Biden also had authority to declassify documents via Barack Obama's executive order
The President Executive Order 13526 . That executive order by the way could be interpreted as it being legal for Trump to have classified documents after his presidency though that would be a stretch. Biden has made no statement that the documents lying around his Delaware home were declassified.
4. Even if any documents were classified at Mar-a-lago, they were in a secure storage room in full view of a security camera, under Secret Service protection.
The documents found at Biden's home were in unsecured areas with full access to Hunter Biden--no security clearance--who lived there for awhile and to any of his friends who might have visited during that time.
5. Leftists and anti-Trumpers condemn, accuse, excoriate in the most hateful ways Donald J. Trump. Reaction to Biden, ho hum. This indicates that the real scandal is the hatred and malice directed at Donald J. Trump along with a malicious desire to hurt and destroy him. Nobody gives a rat's ass about classified documents.
