Turley calls out Biden's 'Corvette standard' on storing classified docs: 'It was a cringe-worthy moment'
FOX News ^ | January 12, 2023 | By Madeline Coggins

President Biden is taking heat after another batch of classified documents were found in the garage of his Delaware home alongside his Corvette.

Constitutional scholar and attorney Jonathan Turley added that the White House is "not in a good place" in terms of handling the narrative surrounding the classified documents.

"The problem is they gave the president a written statement, and then he decided to preface that statement with a uniquely ill-advised statement, saying that this was, after all, a locked garage where I keep my Corvette," Turley said on "America's Newsroom."

"The Corvette standard doesn't actually appear in the Federal Register, although Corvette did have a slogan for many years that 'it's like a car only better.' But we don't apply that to classified documents. So he's really not in a good place here because he's refusing to answer very basic questions."

Turley wrote on Twitter that Biden's reaction to a question from Fox News' Peter Doocy was "a cringe-worthy moment."

"He's repeating his reaction to the discovery rather than addressing his action," Turley said. "It's going to be hard for him to continue to say 'the lawyers don't want me to even know what these documents are.' He's a key witness. The FBI has to determine what the possible compromising of highly sensitive material occurred, and he's got to be able to answer questions about that."

It was supposed to be a cringe-worthy statement. His handlers fed him that line, and others like it, because they want to remove him by ‘proving’ he’s incompetent to stand trial, now that conservatives are investigating him.

Hillary’s unsecured bathroom server with potential thousands of classified emails was probably the most egregious.

Biden always wears Depends, so to be fair, he might have been in the middle of a bowel movement and was caught off guard.

The documents were secured with Garage Level encryption.

Doesn’t matter...
His intent was pure, as opposed to the evil intent of that Trump guy...

This will all find ample room down in the memory hole...

Biden doesn’t need lawyers. He was in the top of his class back in the day. He said so.

Good enough for a ‘vette, good enough for classified docs (and way better than Hillary’s bathroom.)

Would storing them with a Mustang also be acceptable? Or does it strictly HAVE to be a Corvette? What about a Shelby Mustang? Do the Coke-bottle year Corvettes count? Guessing a Chevette is a definite no!

If the Democrat-controlled media organizations are making a big deal of this, they are setting the stage to deny Biden a second term. Biden is simply a figurehead, an expendable figurehead at this point. The question is, who is the anointed one waiting to run in his place in 2024? Kamala is not it. Michelle O?

Not knowing what they are is worse than knowing what they are. The Gaslight Media won’t care.

I’ll give Joe credit for one thing...next to the ‘63 Split Window, the ‘67 is the best looking C2, imo.
