Was Hunter's Mac, a trap for the FBI?

I think it was. The whole thing should have been national news, within a week of The FBI first receiving it. Several people have known about it for a while, and just watching and waiting to see how it was handled/mishandled.

No. The FBI is infested with leftist. It’s getting that way with almost every other government agency.

Which is the motivation for the theorized trap

Yeah, A lot of people realize that fact. That's why there were back ups of the hard drive, and the FBI didn't get the only copy. If everybody trusted the FBI, there wouldn't have been any backup copies.

People would have to actually be ensnared in the trap for this theory to even be an option.
Which means people must be held accountable.
We have yet to see that for much more egregious crimes.

Not the craziest idea, especially in light of how the FBI gamed the system to frame Trump.
Trump doesn’t forget.

Oh, I would say that the trap has been sprung, the varmints have been caught, they just haven't been skinned yet. That's where we have a problem, our varmint skinners are lazy and squeamish.

Yes, I think it was. I don’t trust anything that Rudy Guiliani is involved in.

Rudy held onto the information for two reasons. First, an October surprise for the election, and second, yes....to see that the FBI did nothing.
The fact they issued a subpoena for it means there must be a chain of custody. And you can bet your arse something this explosive would have been front and center on Wray's desk.
The rats in the FBI will start to chew themselves up the chain of command one would think.
Course when the FISA signatures dropped in Rosenstein's lap and they were about to spy on the most powerful person in the world....he just said he does not read everything he signs, Comey said he doesnt sweat the details....and it all went away.
We now have the mac info, the hard drive info from Bannon, and hopefully more releases, many more from declassified documents. Perhaps that is enough to sway the moderates to the good guys side.

So, do you trust the FBI? Because this isn't a Rudy problem, this is an FBI problem.

This, it would have an impact on the election a year ago when they found it, to ignore it is a federal crime. To come back after the fact now, and undoubtedly say, ah its a russian hoax, begs the question, why didnt you say that a year ago.....because you know thats not true.

While possible, I think the most likely possibility is that the FBI gets stuff like the hard drive sent to it all the time and it's standard operating procedure, if it involves someone rich and powerful, is to sweep it under the rug.

That's exactly what you want to catch them at.

I thought about that, but at that time the FBI had been in possession of the laptop for what? about 2 months? I think at that time, "still investigating", "Following leads" would have still seemed like a reasonable excuse.

The only way it was a trap is if the repair shop guy first contacted Guilani and he got the copies and told him, after consulting Trump, to turn it over to the FBI to see what happens.
I don't feel like that is what happened.
I am grateful the honest repair man made the copies. HERO.

Was there any serious thought during that process that Trump would actually be removed from office?

it is pretty crazy how no "unnamed sources" were able to secretly spread this information to the press
it's also pretty crazy how almost all of these sources seem to support one political party
