They didn’t claim it...they speculated.

True, and I know I’m going to be acused of doom-and-gloom, but I think it’s not a good sign. It seems to me this means the so-called “Special Master” has bought all-in on the DOJ/FBI position on all this, and they are trying to pin Trump down on specifics. In other words, they think they have red meat to prosecute him on, and they want him to name what he thinks it is they have planted... which of course is ludicrous because if it was actually planted, how in the hell would Trump know what it was? But you can see how the game is being played. Whether it was planted or not, the “special master” think he is cornering the queen and forcing their opponent to sacrifice chess pieces.

This SM may just be taking Trump’s statements literally and giving Trump an opportunity to submit any evidence that he has. So this could be good if Trump does in fact have any evidence that the FBI planted evidence. If Trump does not have evidence in that regard then so what? what can they do to him for making a speculative statement?
