That's how they rationalize their guy(s) having material they never should have had in the first place, in some instances for decades, with no idea what they did with it.  "They didn't know they had it but they gave it back so it's all good!"  :rolleyes:


And you rationalize all of Trumps indictments how?

I appreciate the question, but you seem to be starting with the premise that any player in this sordid game can be trusted.  I don't start there, I start with "Question everyone's motives.".   

 

You also start at the premise that 'securing the documents was important', I'll reply that 'securing the documents definitely seems like a major issue and threat to our National Security...this time'.  As near as I can tell, there is no significant attention paid to removal of documents, no one really accountable for the proper handling of said documents, no real concern about unprotected access online, or the sharing of classified information with others, or wasn't until 2023. 

 

It seems to me, Chi, it's a major sh8t show on that level, where the relative aggressiveness of the response is directly related to who the target is. 

 

Trump created this problem, Trump is being steamrolled by this problem, and Trump exposed his throat to his enemies and they attacked.  As I've said before, the dems were willing to tear the country apart to get him, it was reckless and foolish to give them more ammunition to destroy him. 

 

There were other options.  There are always other options. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I feel both are apropos ( today,I learned to spell this)

 

I would have written a shorter letter, but I did not have the time. ... 

The more you say, the less people remember.

I think I was pretty clear on H Clinton and the FBI.  I'm not sure why you're struggling with what I wrote?

 

On the second question, you've positioned the choices as:

  • Trump gets to keep the material;
  • The FBI has to storm the castle;

That reflects a closed mindset and limitation of thought.  

 

There were additional options, including providing Trump more time to review the material to see if there were personal items intermingled with classified docs, allowing Trump to shred/destroy items he felt were beyond the scope of the government authority, and engaging in civil discourse as to the ultimate resolution of the matter.  

 

I do agree that bustin the door down was an option as well. 

 

Your commentary on RReagan is interesting.  Not to me, per se, but maybe to someone else.  My commentary was limited to the subject at hand. 

 

I think you addressed the Irv and Farley question to yourself, but in case you don't answer, I have no idea.  I do think the @Irv reply to Simon in the thread about the Women's Soccer team is one of the funniest I've seen in a long time.   Kudos to Irv in that regard, and if he is Farley, Kudos to @Chris farley as well.  

 

You don't believe Trump was afforded enough time to return the documents?

Why did he deserve any time at all?

He should have been given time to separate secret documents from his personal documents?

 

What would be the legitimate reason for them to be stored together?

Civil discourse was ignored by Trump.

You believe that not returning the docs after the government subpoenaed them shouldn't have resulted in the government attempting to take them back?

1.  I think he should have left the documents at the WH, in spite of the wrongdoing by Biden, Clinton etc.  
2. Because the government allows such things. 
3. Yes, because the government allows such things. 
4.  See #3.

5.  I understand how you feel. 
6.  Addressed previously.

7.  Addresses previously.

The teacher said you’re sassy! 
There’s a way that things should be.

You’ll paint flowers the way they are, 

So repeat after me:

Flowers are red.

Green leaves are green.

There’s no need to see flowers any other way

Than the way they always have been seen. 

Don’t be the teacher, Red.

Where did you get the idea that government allows the mixing of classified and personal documents?

Trump was given plenty of time to review the material. He was then subpeonaed. He ignored it. Is that true or not?

You're quoting someone who is on the record saying that the policeman Michael Fanone, who was beaten unconscious by the rioters at the Capitol, of being a “crisis actor.”

Do you believe that to be true?

Are you a supporter of Qanon?

I don't think you have grasped yet that the Republican Party that we used to think existed ain't coming back soon, if at all.

They are now an openly anti-establishment and anti-democracy Party. More importantly, their supporters would not return to support them if they went back to what they were.

Well said.

I voted for Mitt Romney. I would have voted for Marco Rubio or Jeb Bush or Chris Christie. But now? There's a few mild-mannered candidates making gestures toward normalcy (Tim Scott?), but even if they could get through the primaries, the Republican Party is bereft of ideas at the congressional and think tank level. Trump killed it. It or some other successor will have to be rebuilt from the ground up, like an NFL team tanking and trading their entire starting lineup for draft picks.

At this point that they have to build from the ground up is a good thing perhaps.  Excise the poison.   Get rid of other less important, problematic BS.  Myself and a lot of other like minded people won't vote Republican while they are so closely aligned with a religion.

It ain’t the party….it’s the GOP Voters….plenty of quality republicans….they have no shot to get elected. The cancer of white victim hood has to run its course…look no farther than this forum.

Hillary Clinton, Secretary of State and Democrat nominee for President, co-mingled classified and personal documents.  Joe Biden, former senator, VP, and current President has acknowledged possessing and maintaining classified material in a variety of places, including the garage of his personal residence.   Mike Pence, classified material, personal residence.  
 

Is it your contention that these three, high ranking government individuals had no personal documents within the 4 square walls of their personal residence(s).  No tax documents, medical bills, cell phone bills, children’s artwork, Corvette owner’s manuals etc?  

It seems fairly obvious that while frowned upon, it’s common knowledge that it happens, often, and there are apparently precious few safeguards to prevent the unauthorized removal of documents.   
 

I’ll go so far as to state that upon resolution of the SC Biden investigation, there will be no commentary, nor legal jeopardy, for Biden, nor the individuals who mishandled the classified documents on his behalf on a problem so vast and far reaching that our very nation is in peril.    When you factor in the Biden problem spans decades and multiple positions at the highest level of government, it seems clear to me that the stated rules are really more soft guidelines.
 

As for your second question, I’ve answered that multiple times.  I urge you to review the transcript if confusion lingers.
