About Bedminster

I understand that the main value of the recording regarding the missing Iran attack plans is to show intent and that Trump understood declassification procedures.

But, since we admit that those plans are missing, why can't we get a search warrant to search here, there, everywhere, even the grave?

I don't trust Trump's own search; I think that was a red herring. I'm not altogether sure whether Biden and Pence weren't victims of Trump (which didn't work.) But, I would be willing to wait a bit for the execution of such a search warrant. I think the warrant should be a massive search of everything simultaneously.

I know we can't wait--but, I don't understand why a search warrant can't be obtained, or why we wouldn't want that?

1. It's my understanding that NJ law regarding exhuming of grave...

.....is very difficult to set aside even in a criminal matter.

And it's on private property, not in a true cemetery.

Would take FOREVER, if ever.

We wouldn't have learned about the Mierda-Loco search if TFG hadn't fake-Tweeted it and then litigated it. As far as exhuming Ivana, that's a different matter because exhumation orders are hard to get and there would have to have been some hard evidence beyond mere speculation that there are classified documents in the grave. Anyhow, they are no good to him there.

wouldn't that extend to TFG as well, ex or not, private property or not?

And if that's the case, hiding something in the grave for later benefit wouldn't have been too smart. Maybe I just answered my question.

It would be difficult to retrieve quickly and without involving other people. I would want things hidden where I could get to them quickly and without anyone else knowing about it.

Trump rarely does the smartest or most logical thing. Hell, if he was smart he wouldn't have run for president.

is Trump's airplane. If he ever decides to make a run for it, it would be smart for him to have some classified documents he could trade for asylum.
