It came out that he had one of his cronies copy the contents of one of the boxes.
3/2/1! trump follows the best data security practices, clearlyNo big deal. Trump was just making backup copies. Always backup your data!
Me, sitting in a chair patiently waiting until the end of time for all the people who cared about handling of classified information to come out and condemn this...This part just makes me so Fn mad. I used to loose sleep over the handling of classified material.
In a footnote, Howell also noted that another Trump adviser connected to his Save America PAC had acknowledged scanning the contents of the box that contained the classified materials in 2021 and storing them on a personal laptop provided by the PAC.
I've always thought the FBI needed to cast a much wider net looking for these materials. I am sure he still has them at other locations and that he made copies/scans.This part just makes me so Fn mad. I used to loose sleep over the handling of classified material.

Remember in 2016 when every interview, debate, etc, spent a ton of time asking about fucking emails? Where is any of that now?Remember how in 2016 conservatives pretended to care about this and the press pretended to believe them?
I don’t know if you remember this but immediately after Trump took office Jared and Ivanka did exactly the same thing Hillary did and worse and nobody cared.Remember in 2016 when every interview, debate, etc, spent a ton of time asking about fucking emails? Where is any of that now?

Why should they have known? I’m sure they had an idea as to what documents were missing but they wouldn’t know where they were. It’s a big place and it would be easy to miss things.So when they raided Mar a Lago, they didn't do a full search? Only areas they already knew had documents? They should have known that not all the documents had been recovered.
It seems highly likely he does have stuff at Bedminster and what sucks is if they could uncover it they would have a new case that couldn't be tanked by Judge Cannon.The probability Trump has more stuff other places (like Bedminster) but they don't have enough to get a search seems pretty good.
I mean, if the FBI thought I had classified documents, I bet they'd tear out the roof of my garage just to make sure I didn't have anything anywhere else. That stuff was hardly buried in the back 40, they just had to open all the doors and look.Why should they have known? I’m sure they had an idea as to what documents were missing but they wouldn’t know where they were. It’s a big place and it would be easy to miss things.
Trump even got a law passed to punish himself more.Remember how in 2016 conservatives pretended to care about this and the press pretended to believe them?
Lol would be sweet to punish him with his own wordsTrump even got a law passed to punish himself more.
Yeah, I'm generally a chill guy but seeing stuff like this just boils my blood because it's outright treasonous. Look, I get it that not every American has to get along and have the same values or political beliefs, but if there's one thing every American should agree on it's that the nation's nuclear secrets have to be treated with the utmost security. The fact that there's a whole party protecting a dumb fuck who is quite literally selling out the USA to foreign adversaries is mindboggling. To be honest, I'd almost prefer if Trump wasn't a bumbling baboon because at least I could rationalize it easier if it were a cunning villain instead. But nooooo, we have to deal with the fact that out of all fucking people, it's a fucking moron that is getting away with it. I mean, for once I'd like to see the system work here. We all worked hard to get where we are with life while this idiot fails upwards at every opportunity and there's not a more egregious way of failing upwards than to literally steal US secrets and get political cover for it, possibly getting elected to President while at it. Like JFC.... I'm about to pop a blood vessel just ranting right now.This part just makes me so Fn mad. I used to loose sleep over the handling of classified material.

It would be great to know but unfortunately he used a private email account to conduct official business as well as encrypted messaging apps so those communications can never be recovered.Indeed bumbling baboon. Afraid of the next Repugican POTUS actually smart and cunning enough to hide their actions. Or more family members like Jarad that read the daily briefs. What information did he get and passed along to foreign entities for personal favours?
The ones that cared abandoned ship sometime in the last decade, and the new Nazi ship attracted more Nazis.Yeah, I'm generally a chill guy but seeing stuff like this just boils my blood because it's outright treasonous.

Yeah basically, the rest are either morally bankrupt or actively complicit."the ones that cared"
All 12 or 13 of them?
So when they raided Mar a Lago, they didn't do a full search? Only areas they already knew had documents? They should have known that not all the documents had been recovered.
it was to make @pcgeek11 happy, you know? He was so incandescent with rage that the FBI brought like 70 people to search a 10 acre raggedy ass property littered with clowns, which is clearly totally unfair because of course in the land of ignorant pussbuckets, it only takes 3 agents to scour the 1BR apartment of some crackheads, so it's only fair that Trump should be treated the same way!
Had they allowed any more agents than what they deemed appropriate, pcgeek would probably be out shooting up a mall in anger or something.
Your thoughts on this?"incandescent with rage"? LOL
I said it was overkill for what it was and that equals incandescent with rage? God you are as bad as @MrSquished .
Well I can't explain it. But I would speculate that most of those boxes of documents are not secret or even classified. It is obviously being used as a document storage area in which it is common for there to be a scanner / printer in a document storage area. Is that an image of Mar-A Lago?Why this isn’t talked about more is a major failure with our news reporting:
WHY IS THERE A FUCKING PHOTO COPIER STORED WITH THE SECRET DOCUMENTS!!!!!!!
