You’re missing the point. Trump said anything that he brought to Maro Lago was declassified. So then what would be the point of planting anything?

I had a Top Secret clearance when I was in the Army. I guess I’d better put a lock on my panty drawer, just in case. *ROLLEYES*

What a bunch of total BS.

Keep punching President in Exile Trump, Media Commies! You make him more appealing to Independents AND Democrats by the minute! :)

It is amazing how so many people have so different theories as to what was going on in the raid.

Yep, no “Drugs on the table” display from the AG.... they got nada 🤣

It does not make sense that they are looking for classified information.

They know Trump has the power to declassify anything.

As I understand it the statues they're using don't rely on the documents being classified.

All of this happened right after the CPAC straw poll.


Good observation!

Blah, blah, blah. FY NYT. You get and give help to deep-state traitors who lie, cheat and steal to bring down a then-sitting and now former President. Shame. All of you should be standing on the gallows with bags over your heads and nooses around your necks.

Paraphrasing Comey....

Although there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information, our judgment is that no reasonable Jury Member would vote guilty in such a case. Jury Members necessarily weigh a number of factors before voting. There are obvious considerations, like the strength of the evidence, especially regarding intent. Responsible decisions also consider the context of a person’s actions, and how similar situations have been handled in the past.

Also given the track record of the FBI over the past few years, this case maybe laughed out of court before being presented to a Jury.........

Given their past why would anyone believe President Elect Trump had any of those documents?

“Also given the track record of the FBI over the past few years, this case maybe laughed out of court before being presented to a Jury.”

Never happen. The DS is after Trump and next his supporters and there is no going back or letting up—it’s all or nothing. This is the coup d’é·tat, and if they fail the entire DS goes down. Nothing will stand in their way of a complete take over.

NOTE FOUND IN POCKET OF FBI AGENT BY WIFE:
It must be perfectly clear to everyone above room temperature that Trump IS Dr. Strangelove. Clearly his intent is to create a global conflagration that will end all life on earth. This madman must be stopped, by any means necessary.

Yes, Trump needs to fire the 7,000 plus Senior Executive Service members and then move many Federal Agencies to the far ranges of the States. Defund the Department of Homeland Security. That would make a good 1st day back in office.

But even if Mr. Trump declassified the information before he left office, none of the three potential crimes cited by the department in seeking the warrant depend on whether a mishandled document has been deemed classified.

Fascinating. Imagine if they try to jail Trump for keeping documents wanted by a library while Obama is sitting on 3 million pages of Presidential records. I'd like to think there would be a big reaction but I used to think the FBI were ethical good guys and that the military would refuse any orders to fire on citizens and I no longer truly believe those things either. Once we allowed fascism to get its foot in the door it has changed everything.

“ Bad for the country”

I am mostly of the opinion (I waver) that the only way to save the country, or at least a part of it, is to completely and utterly destroy it - down to the studs as they say. The Federal monster and the totalitarian leftists are far too entrenched and have too large a base in the population and the cultural institutions for anything other than destruction to be successful, at least in some regions.

We may have a majority, or a larger plurality, but it isn’t enough to remove them and cut down the Federal behemoth in a game of give and take and politics. They have been on the offensive for generations as the side that believes in freedom and a republican form of government have ceded ground on defense. There really is only one option left to preserve what can be preserved…and that’s not all of the country, for certain.

Government is too big, it needs to be cut in half.
