"I actually think the real threat to President Trump is not for actually taking the documents ... the real dagger to the heart here is the claims of obstruction of justice... claims of lying to federal officers. What is going to be the real heart of the case is that that President Trump allegedly got his lawyers to essentially lie to the Grand Jury, lie to the Justice Dept about the claim that they had found all the classified documents and turned them over."

"Otherwise, if it's not those claims, Presidents Trump's argument that he is being selectively prosecuted, when you compare him to how VP Pence has been treated, how President Biden has been treated, and especially how Hillary Clinton was treated bu the Justice Dept in 2016, when she set up her own server, and cycled lots of classified information through it and then apparently destroyed records about it. I think he has a good claim there, but that is not going to apply to the obstruction of justice, that's not going to apply to the lying to federal agents charges."

Hunter Biden is a literal pedophile crackhead. Flies on Air Force One.

Joe is the head of a literal mafia crime-family, with proof everywhere.

We cannot share a country with Democrats. They are all evil people. You can't have a civilization with them. They will literally argue for the right to sexually mutilate children and call it "healthcare".

Demonic. Completely and utterly demonic.

I find solace knowing they will all be burning in hell soon.

Expected responses so far. The guy is probably spot on.

What Hillary Clinton did is far worse, but that does not / would not have anything to do with this case. Not equal justice under the law... she should still be prosecuted.

READ WHAT HE SAID ... he is saying the case is likely about obstruction of justice and having his attorneys lie to federal agents. Is there anybody here that thinks Trump would not do that?

"he can declassify anything he wants. "

Hillary clearly obstructed justice by breaking the blackberry phones and using software to erase her servers.
Tell me again, what happened to her?

Was Hillary using bleach bit and hammers to hide the incriminating evidence not obstructing justice? All she did was obstruct and hide 30,000 emails that were under actual subpoena

If so why aren't they being charged for perjury?

No one's going to rise up. Especially after Trump turned his back on helping the 1/6 protesters.

Are you going to "rise up"? No. You'll just claim to be Keyboard Patriots.

If this is what he was charged with.......

If you remember the govt kept stonewalling when his lawyers asked specifically what they wanted and then asked them if they had received everything they wanted.....specifically for this reason.....and now they are charging him for it.

What utter nonsense. They will never stop.

How anyone could vote for a govt like this I will never know.
