[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Some Trump records taken to Mar-a-Lago clearly marked as classified, including documents at ‘top secret’ level[/b]

How can they not prosecute this?  If I took a bunch of top secret documents home with me, they wouldn’t hesitate to put me in jail.[/quote]

Of course, but you're not the former President. If there's anything we've learned in the last several years it's that Trump has an amazing ability to escape accountability.

[b]If this story is true I find it appalling that FBI and DOJ haven't even reviewed the documents and are still trying to decide what to do.

Some flunky will take the fall here and be fined and Trump will claim he didn't know anything about those boxes. [/b]Or nothing at all will happen per the usual.[/quote]

Trump gave away the store to Russia (and probably gobs of other countries) and the alleged “deep state” seems to care not a bit. It’s like a room full of the most timid, mousiest weaklings who just refuse to do their jobs. Meanwhile if a normal, non-psychopathic person steps out of line, the full weight of the law falls on them. It would just be nice to see Donald get some consequences with teeth.[/quote]

PP here. I don't think Trump is/was selling documents. This is stuff he wanted to keep for his huge ego. To show off to people. Beside, intelligence ages and becomes less valuable. He doesn't have the perseverance or attention span to actually get the good stuff. And people knew he was careless and would no doubt shred or take stuff back. If anything, he'd trade what he had for favors, influence, or property/deals. Not money. My two cents anyway.

We - as in the country - are rapidly running out of time to hold Trump accountable. And I'm not sure it's going to happen at all. This country pulled off kind of a massive feat in the 2020 election and decisively voted Trump out of office. Listen to some podcasts and historians. What we did as voters is kind of unusual. And Joe Biden isn't a Bill Clinton or Barack Obama. He was old establishment and he wasn't Trump. I personally think Biden shouldn't be glossing over that in the name of some unity we are never going to achieve. Get this Supreme Court nominee confirmed, call up your old pals McConnell and Graham, etc. and go in with a guns blazing speech. There is an opportunity here. Seize it.[/quote]
