No, neither of those.

It’s a warning to back off Hunter Biden

Trump should have put the documents in his socks and down his pants. Then the National Archives would do nothing.

The problem is is he Declassified them and the justice department just never released them to the public and actually remarked the documents officially so are they classified or Declassified? They are marked classified but they were Declassified by an act of the president when he was president it’s the bureaucracy of the deep state that did not make these declassifications officially to remark the documents

If President Trump was getting quality advice, he would have been advised that this raid was a possibility and to take specific actions. Actions that I would hope included:

1. Only his attorneys have the safe combination and they filmed the inside of the safe before sealing it (empty).

2. ALL government documents were inventoried by two attorneys and his personal admin, sealed in containers with tamper proof tape, locked up and in a place requiring card key access (records and videos accesses) that only his admin and attorneys.

3. Activated hidden security cameras to video his office, safe, and document storage area.

Probably a few other things too. Wait for this situation, wait for the evidence to be fabricated, wait for the indictment, wait for the pre-trial hearings, and then nail the government thugs in open court.

Is he kidding me with this article?

Going on about how Trump could have declassified the records, but if he forgot to it became a crime once he left office?

A crime NO ONE has ever been prosecuted for! And a courtesy that is given to all former presidents.

The markings mean nothing if Trump declassified the documents, and declassification is an administrative procedure. It’s not like there is some constitutional process that is binding upon the President. If Trump decided they were declassified, even if he did it 10 seconds before he left office, then they were declassified, end of story.

From the article:

The Constitution’s qualifications for the presidency are minimal – one must be over 35 and a natural-born citizen. Being a felon is not a disqualification, so even crimes potentially far more serious than mishandling classified information are not a bar to seeking the presidency.

Is Trump over 35? Check
Is Trump a Natural Born Citizen? Check
What if he's convicted of a crime? Doesn't matter.

So even if Trump was convicted of a crime, it would NOT bar him from running for President.

They don't have anything on Trump so now they've taken drastic measures to compile anything they can find to use against him that will “prosecute and arrest him”.....thus he wouldn't be able to run for office.

This is ALL to prevent him from running because thy know full well he has the public's support and would win in 2024....and they know he's already successful supporting other candidates that's hurting the Mid term election a few months ahead. So they want him off the streets and out of the running - both.

It’s about an outsider exposing their deep dark dirty secrets.

[[The problem is is]]

It depends on what your definition if “is” is.

Sorry, couldn’t resist 😀
