In reply to the discussion: Trump workers moved Mar-a-Lago boxes a day before Justice Dept. came for documents [View all]maxsolomon
(33,284 posts)28. What I'm saying is that when * did this or that doesn't matter.
There's little real harm done by his hoarding/theft/imaginary declassification; no evidence (yet) that any of it went anywhere or that any intelligence was compromised. He took it because he's possessive, and he was hurt and angry. He is a small man with a small mind; his motives are banal.
But the DOJ does not want to put a former POTUS in jail. Even if it's richly deserved. Garland is far too Institutionalist; he'll do everything he can to avoid it.
New York, or Fulton County? TBD.

I'd like to know who tipped him off as well. The timing of moving the boxes can't be a coincidence.

He wasn't the President when he was knowingly moving around classified documents.

Anyone here surprised at any time? Who didn't intuitively know this would happen?
