Trump's future hangs in the balance: Possible charges as Classified Documents Probe may be announced after Memorial Day

The difference is Trump was President and had declassifying authority. All Presidents engage with NARA after leaving office to negotiate which docs go there.
There is no indication that it was unclassified and had been, (given the sensitive of some of it) it would have been more evidence of his unfitness for office. The president leaving his office is allowed to retain personal papers, everything else belongs to The People.

Cultist you believe the gospel according to the church of the democrats
 
You’re so totally sure that Hunter Biden should be prosecuted but somehow you don’t even know what the charges should be.

It’s a weird blind spot.

That's bizarre, you're listening to the voices in your had again, I didn't say any of that

You didn’t say what any Biden should be prosecuted for.

I know.

That’s the point.

If that is the case then why did Biden steal boxes and boxes of classified documents, kept them unsecured in his garage, and in Chinatown? He gets to clearly break the law, but it is all okay because when he got caught red handed, the FBI took the documents? Since when is breaking the law okay just because when you got caught, you supposedly cooperated?

If Trump was “breaking the law”, then why didn’t the FBI take the documents the first time they came to Mar a Lago and looked at them? It would had been illegal for them to leave it there if that was the case.
 
No....in a Bananna Republic the authoritarian leader, like Trump, is never held acountable.


Correct, just like the Biden crime family. No international businesses, yet raking in millions from foreign governments and you dumbfucks don't ask what they are buying.
 
Do you guys think Ron DeSantis will take advantage of the situation and paint Trump as a criminal if Trump is charged?
Bloomberg News has the development:

"Special Counsel Jack Smith is wrapping up his investigation into former president Donald Trump’s refusal to return classified documents after his election defeat and is poised to announce possible criminal charges in the days or weeks after Memorial Day, according to people familiar with the matter.

As Smith’s team winds down the classified documents probe, a separate inquiry into efforts by Trump and his allies to overturn the 2020 election continues, according to four people familiar with the matter who asked not to be identified discussing a confidential inquiry.

Trump’s associates believe the Justice Department’s investigation into documents taken from the White House after he left office is close to the end, said one of the people, but they don’t know if charges will be brought against the former president or anyone else.

Any indictments resulting from the roughly year-long investigation must be approved by Attorney General Merrick Garland and a federal grand jury.
It's not gonna happen. They can't charge Trump without also charging Biden.

To steal implies intent. You state it like a fact but have yet to show that is the case.

He gets to clearly break the law, but it is all okay because when he got caught red handed, the FBI took the documents? Since when is breaking the law okay just because when you got caught, you supposedly cooperated?

Caught "red handed" over what exactly? If you read the laws regarding the mis-handling of classified material it only rises to the level of a crime if there was intent behind it. Otherwise it is a violation of the rules and subject to internal discipline. That is why Sandy Berger got charged with a crime. That is why Trump has yet to be charged with anything. And that is why Biden (and Pence) have yet to be charged with anything.

If Trump was “breaking the law”, then why didn’t the FBI take the documents the first time they came to Mar a Lago and looked at them? It would had been illegal for them to leave it there if that was the case.
No, I don't think it would have been illegal to leave them if they were secured while the FBI arranged for them to be picked up.

Ron DeSantis can't beat Donald Trump.

It doesn't matter that tech oligarchs and billionaires pledged support for DeSantis recently. Jeb Bush had all the money in the world in 2015-2016. He had the Bush name, The GOP donors. He couldn't win the nomination because the AMERICAN PEOPLE elected Donald Trump.

Forget about DeSantis. Get on the Trump train Conservative from Georgia. I'll save you a seat.

MAGA
TRUMP 2024

LOL, you really don’t know anything about handling classified information and documents. I held a security clearance my whole career. You really need to stop talking out of your ass.
