Smith takes a jackhammer (pun intended) to Trump's docs case complaint.

The difference between Bidens case and Trumps case is that Trump actively tried to hide the documents and lied under oath about having them

Those actions are the only reason he was charged. If he had simply turned them all over to begin with, no charges would have been filed.
 
Prosecutors Reject Claims of Unfairness in Trump Classified Documents Case

Federal prosecutors on Monday rejected former President Donald J. Trump’s claims that he was unfairly charged with holding on to classified documents after he left office, saying that his case bore no comparison to the one in which President Biden was cleared of wrongdoing even though he was found in possession of classified materials after leaving the vice presidency.

In rebuffing what was known as a “selective prosecution” claim by Mr. Trump, the prosecutors said that while many government officials over the years had taken classified materials with them after leaving office — often inadvertently, but occasionally willfully — Mr. Trump’s case remained unique because of the extent to which he had “resisted the government’s lawful efforts to recover them.”

“There has never been a case in American history in which a former official has engaged in conduct remotely similar to Trump’s,” they wrote.

Everyone should read this short filing by Smith. https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.flsd.648653/gov.uscourts.flsd.648653.337.0.pdf

He explains the crimes Trump committed in trying to keep the government from taking possession of the classified material Trump stole.

“Most notably, Trump, unlike Biden, is alleged to have engaged in extensive and repeated efforts to obstruct justice and thwart the return of documents bearing classification markings. And the evidence concerning the two men’s intent—whether they knowingly possessed and willfully retained such documents—is also starkly different, as reflected in the Hur Report’s conclusion.”

Will any of the details, most already known, marking the vast difference between Trump and Biden's cases be acknowledged by The Following? Not a chance.
The SCOTUS takes a jackhammer to Smith's convictions. They will again.
 
Biden immediately returned them once he realized he had them

Trump FOUGHT the return and lied about them to the DOJ
“Once he realized he had them?”

How could he not have known since he was the guy who stole them?

Had he been stealing so much classified material as Senator and VP that he lost track?
 
Your source is a partisan hack
You’ll never convince a rationally minded person they’re different
To say they’re different only helps trump
I'm sorry you find the facts so upsetting.
 
True, whereas Trump was authorized to have and keep classified documents, Biden was not. Biden's crimes are by far the greater offense.
In no way was Trump authorized to “have and keep” classified (or national security docs in any form) after he left the White House
