Do you believe the Democrats waited 565 days to retrieve documents that were going to get the US attacked and conquered by Russia or China? This doesn't even mention the fact that they could have gotten all that and more fom Hillary Clinton's server if they wanted.
This is the first time I have heard any consideration of such an extreme possibility. (I guess Trump's action is supposed to be ok if it does not start nuclear war.) Perhaps if I watched more fox I would have heard this extreme diversion of attention.

It looks like there may be a push to use 18 U.S.C. § 2071 and its disqualification language to argue that Trump cannot run in 2024, if convicted of holding onto classified documents. The same argument was used against Clinton back in 2015 and shot down. Qualifications for president are constitutional and can't be changed by statute, only by amending the constitution. This snopes article lays out the arguments: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/hilla ... qualified/
By this reasoning, could Trump serve as president from a federal penitentiary?
I think that’s a questioned to be answered by Republican Congresscritters.

Well, there certainly are some interesting critters with bizarre answers to things.

The Democrats don't want the truth about the Russia collusion hoax to get out. Trump didn't want to allow them to bury those documents forever
So the truth about collusion with Russia was in Trumps possession and not Democrats? Twice odd, first Trump could and reasonable should have made that truth public when he was president. How would Trump document the collusion when he was not doing it?

I for one doubt there was any collusion, The truth is visible for all of us, Russia helped Trump on their own initiative because they figured he would be a bad influence on the US and Putin had reason to dislike Hlllary.

Of course in that sense Trump did make it all public by being President.

A lawyer for former U.S. President Donald Trump signed a statement in June that said all classified material held in boxes at Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence had been returned to the government, the New York Times reported on Saturday.
So, someone stole these classified documents.

Obama still hasn't digitized as he promised the 30 million pages he took to chicago after leaving office. LBJ's library took over 40 years to make public his secret tapes. Of course as president Obama can declassify anything for whtever he wants. But so can Trump.

A lot of things are classified because it's embarrassing to the party in power classifying them, not because they are a security threat.
And when the Confederates saw Jackson standing fearless like a stonewall, the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

No they can't. Whataboutism isn't going to save Trump, no matter how much he lies about the supposed correlations with Hillary or Obama.

You're ignorant as all get out and you're just pushing the fox noise excuse from day one. Only the dumbest fool would sit there and downplay classified materials especially those classified to the highest degree because they're so friggin sensitive that they cannot even be opened outside a secure facility where a select few are privy to them.

The fact is Trump stole these documents and he lied about having them. The fact is Trump didn't declassify these documents and he likely couldn't even if he had thought to do that before leaving office. The fact is Trump likely intended to make money from these documents whether it be selling them at future auctions to his idiot worshippers or just flat out selling them to America's enemies, who frequent his resort regularly. the fact is people like you are traitors to this country for making excuses and accepting the lame excuses by a guy who spent his entire life as a con artist.

So, so true. Every time something crazy with trump happens social media is silent until they have a chance to see FOX tell them how they're supposed to think about it.
