    I also think so. Has an American President ever been punished for being a criminal during presidency? It would be a shame for the US, so better the justice should let it be. :(

    But it would be a huge win if DJT never allowed to be president again.
    I hope they'll make it! :)

    So? He has the right to do so according to the Constitution. Fight subpoenas given to him.

    Waste time? LOL, you wouldn't say that if the swamp-deep state was trying to usurp your candidate's chance to run again by an abuse of power. That's banana republic jazz.

    This is a cheap stunt that is usually reserved for spies who are thought to have classified documents they are planning to sell to the highest bidder. I really don't think this applied to Trump.

    They "were cooperating"? For over a year and refusing to release the documents? Umm, that's not cooperation, my vocabulary-shy chum.

    If they find no violation of law, they will be creating a violation. Any rational observer knows this is true, we've seen them invent "evidence" over and over. The presidential candidate and the Democratic National Committee conspired and funded the fake dossier for example, and that has been proven. Character is a regulator of actions. A person capable of doing something unscrupulous once is not only capable but likely to use similar ploys whenever it's deemed beneficial- and unless you are totally lacking in savvy, you will never forget that, and never take the next ploy at face value. Doing so would indicate either that you don't have that savvy about human nature, are extremely gullible and don't learn- or have values similar to those pulling the schemes. Most people have a facade they cultivate and want you to believe- and a real character that controls what they are capable of and will do, which they hide. A wise person knows how to read that hidden character, and people are always showing you who they are, despite the facade. You don't seem to have that skill.

    The reality is obvious to any person of good character and honor. The democrats have committed another attempt to frame Trump with the objective of making a possible run impossible. An act of fear, an act devoid of honor, and an act that has just made Donald trump far more powerful than ever. He doesn't have to run for office; just his endorsement decides elections. He endorsed 16 senate candidates for the primaries. He is 16 for 16... they all won. The democrats cower in fear of that degree of influence, and that fear drives them to desperation.... and stupidity.

    The democrats are making Trumps case for him; proving that the lack of honor in their government is without limits, and they are the ones unfit to hold office. Not because they are democrats, but because they are defining themselves and that party by their actions. Like the man in the hole, they don't know when to stop digging. These are unscrupulous people- but not really smart or wise.

    He has the right to steal classified documents and keep them? *LOL* My, what a puzzling interpretation of the law.

    As Mike Pompeo points out:

    "Something very dangerous is happening.

    The FBI executed a search warrant against President Trump. This apparent political weaponization of the Department of Justice and FBI is shameful. Plain and simple.

    The Attorney General MUST explain why 250 years of practice was upended with this raid.

    Look, I served on the Benghazi Committee when we proved that Hillary Clinton possessed classified information. But we didn’t raid her home."

    FFS....She literally paid a firm to permanently destroy the data on her private servers! That is intent to wipe evidence.

    Oversight of the executive branch is as far from a "totalitarian police state" as you could possibly get. We'd be much closer to a totalitarian police state if there was no such oversight . . . which there wasn't . . . until after NIXON. Nixon's totalitarian overreach is the exact reason why we have this law to begin with.

    Usually, it's called obstruction. It was impeachable, right?

    What the FBI is looking for at Mar-a-lago, is something... anything... to charge Donald Trump with. After all, to save democracy, they MUST prevent him from being able to run against Biden in 2024. Amirite?

    The judge who signed the search warrant is Bruce Reinhart.

    Who appointed him?

    When you've done that little research, take the opportunity to look at who appointed Chris Wray, the FBI director.

    You've convinced me about the need for Presidential over site. Selective prosecution still bothers me.

    I think that considering that the judge who signed off on the warrant and the FBI director are both Trump appointees, your theory is totally off base.

    As is often the case.

    Routine email deletions are, well, routine. I've never worked for a company that DIDN'T regularly wipe archives. And the more security-sensitive the company, the more aggressive they were about wipes. Most of what was on Clinton's servers were personal communications. Some weren't. And I supported investigating her and her team for that. Hell, I even defended Comey for his public declarations. No, there is no evidence that Clinton herself ever intentionally wiped official documents. But there's a reason why you want to talk about Clinton and can't bring yourself to say a single word about the actual topic. There's a reason why you can't talk about Trump and why you run and hide when things start coming back to the actual topic.

    Try to keep up with the exchange instead of deflecting. What branch of government does the Justice Dept fall under?

    For starters, the Democrats are not making any case for Trump. Second, if law enforcement does due diligence to investigate someone for something and eventually finds no reason to charge, then no violation of the law exists. This happens more than you know or understand. For instance, when a homicide occurs and the detectives investigate, they may have to question certain persons of interest. Sometimes those persons of interest will have the information and provide said information in which they are not culpable for the crime. It is called clearing someone as a suspect. Third, "DNC conspired and funded the fake dossier. I take it you have not read the Mueller Report. The Mueller Report found some claims verified and others not. It also did find that Russia did attempt, twice, to meet with Trump, with more emphasis during the transition period. What is not know, unfortunately, is how much did Trump know because Mueller never interrogated him. He should have.

    The only thing you are doing is throwing as much dung on the wall to see what sticks. So we can guess where your character and values lie, should we?

    Someone please teach these RW posters what a "strawman" argument is.

    I'm referring to the Orange Stain waddling out ofthe WH with documents that are not his. That he has no right to retain. And that he has refused to return.

    I'm referring to a real person, real acts and real facts. That's not a "strawman" argument. Unbelievable. *rolling eyes* It's like talking to a brain damaged squirrel.
