My opinion...Trump has done nothing illegal, misdemeanor or otherwise.

Why is the FBI raiding Trump over a misdemeanor?
August 10, 2022

It’s deja vu all over again. Many on TBP might remember the old story of Clinton’s lackey Sandy Berger sneaking out classified documents from the National Archives by stuffing them in his pants and then later shredding them at his leisure.

What the media is leaving out of the FBI’s raid on Mar-a-Lago is the fact that stealing from the National Archives is a misdemeanor with a maximum punishment of 1 year in jail and up to $100,000 fine. When Sandy Berger pleaded guilty his sweetheart deal was no jail time, a $10,000 fine, surrendering his security clearance for 3 years, and he didn’t have to give a reason for why he committed his crime.

Not that his conviction really mattered because Sandy Berger ended up dead 11-months later.

Not pants, he stuffed them in his socks.

Why?

Short answer: fishing expedition

Slightly longer answer: Remember that Hutchison gal that lied? If her made-up story as it finally came out under the Klieg lights had been disclosed to the committee in the first iteration, it would have been trumpeted to the cameras many moons earlier.

Oh, the committee's investigators had surely interviewed her earlier. They would have known of her animus against PDJT for not being deemed worthy as a continued hire. "We just might be able to work with that convincing, heartfelt look on a fresh, young face if it comes to that."

But with the committee's wheels grinding to a gravitas nadir, I suspect an investigator came to Cassidy H and with a wink and a nod and laid out to her that though she'd perhaps felt side-lined so far, there just might be a valuable starring role for her before the committee if her story just had a few more exciting adjectives and couple of wrenching kickers.

When the J/6 Committee Chairman intoned they still didn't have a crime to indict, they and Joe needed to keep up the grind of process punishment at minimum. Just like the investigator's boss asking his underling, "Can't you get me something more to work with here?" kicked Cassidy Hutchison's more vivid "narrative" up a couple of notches, surely something in all those heisted boxes could be blown up out of proportion in front of the lopsided show trial committee and/or a grand jury, at least enough to sway 15 points in a dozen mid-term races!
