One of Ann's best columns.

“As president I could have declassified it,” he told the non-security-cleared person, “Now I can’t, you know, but this is still a secret.”

That's not going away, my dear FRiends. It's going to before juries and non-stop on our various media.

Trump would have been unlikely to win the general before this...

It's simply not possible now.

Someone should tell him.

Can you explain why anyone in their right mind would say that. Since he is in his right mind, is he colluding with the Democrats?

Why have Trump’s poll numbers gone up since the indictment?

Squirrel!

You apparently can’t see that the Presidential Records Act (PRA) entirely guides the outcome here, yet Jack doesn’t bother telling that to the grand jury, nor is it properly woven into Smith’s indictment. (He don’ know Jack!)

As far as National Security and military secrets, those are prepared entirely for the US President. PDJT embodied the every aspect of the Executive Branch at the time.

Under the PRA, the president can declassify anything and take anything with him as he leaves office. He doesn’t have to tell anyone. He doesn’t have to go through any administrative procedure whatsoever. If there ever should be a discrepancy, the PRA provides for good-faith efforts and non-criminal contests concerning any difference of opinion or understanding. If there were any problem(s), that is where Jack should have focused his efforts, not pursuing a criminal indictment. <— PERIOD!

This was already adjudicated in a Judicial Watch vs Bill Clinton lawsuit where Slick absconded with all manner of valuable, previously classified intel and hid it in his sock drawer. The case determined all Slick did was legal. What PDJT did with his documents has been far tamer.

I actually think that Trump could beat Biden, since everything that Trump is accused of Biden appears to be guilty of.

That on top of Biden’s other liabilities - frequent incoherence, horrific economy, extreme left policies, etc.

“Someone should tell him.”

If he ever reaches the level of wisdom and knowledge you think you have...

Well not until we fix vote fraud in the swing states, but then neither would anyone else win until we fix the vote fraud problem in the swing states.

It's simply not possible now.

Nobody cares about these stupid made up legal charges.

Someone should tell him.

Someone should tell you that you *WILL* get Donald Trump as the nominee.

Who knows himself a braggart,
Let him fear this, for it will come to pass
That every braggart shall be found an ass.

Does anyone have a copy of the documents to which she referred, or was it merely a reference to a document?

How do we know which document it was?

Can the jury see it?

Can we?

Talking about having classified documents seems to be not enough to convict if there is no proof it was published to a third party.

Having possession is not necessarily illegal for a former present, either.

So, what is the evidence of the publication to a third person or persons of still classified material?

Was it in a sock drawer?

It would help if we could all see that evidence, or at least know that the document has been identified and is going to be in evidence.

He was talking to someone without a security clearance.

Talk to any cop in America.

They legally lie to you.

Really. All of them. Constantly.

That's not going away, my dear FRiends.

Was that a REAL secret document or was he just blustering as he quite often does?
