    Where's the paper trail? And even if he had declassified all the documents, which remains to be seen in the first place, it does not mean he gets to keep them. You know that.

    I don't see what all the fuss is about myself. How is the KGB supposed to be sure that the copies they have are correct?

    The classification status of the documents is irrelevant to the crimes being investigated…

    Top Secret documents cannot be declassified by the POTUS.

    Did you know that?

    Well, there is a process, maybe it the Special Access Programs that can't be declassified without the specific departments to be involved?

    There is a process in which the POTUS is involved, but it is National Security (CIA/NSA/Pentagon) that takes the initiative to declassify documents.

    And that can take 50 years...

    Wow.... a professional liar son of a professional conman tells a marginal news outlet some bogus news....

    The bar for "Current Events" may have just hit rock bottom....

    All that's happened after the raid is his rabid fanboys got even more rabid.... Not ONE person in this country who voted against T**** in 2020 will now vote for him after Mar-A-Elba was raided...

    Why does Eric think he speaks for the "entire country"? Illusions of grandeur? In reality, the so-called "silent majority" never was anything else but a loud and obnoxious small minority. The "f Biden" flags speak for themselves.

    This is an amazing country in that….

    In 2014-2018 the entirety of the right wing in this country was screaming on high about Hillarys mail server. And since they knew that their was never a compromise of the actual server, their ire was 2 fold:
    1. There was POTENTIAL for the data to be compromised
    2. She was reckless in her handling of the sensitive data that could cost lives of brave men and woman’s in the government

    It was NEVER about anything other than that. She was careless and should be in prison….Locke her up….lock her up….and in the end when it was found that there were 8 emails that had the classifications, the right lost their damn minds that she was treated differently, and she should be locked up for her “carelessness”, and her “disregard for the law”

    Cut to 2022 and Donald has BOXES of classified information at his residence, which he stole from the federal government (thats not up for debate) which by the way also serves a venue for parties where the he and his friends had multiple gatherings, while the data was there. And all we here from the right is…”but he declassified them”, and “He can declassify anything”……(Not true)

    Please show us all the same level of fear for the “potential to the country” of that data getting out that you claimed happened with Hillary. Seriously folks, show us. Because the rigth literally wanted her hung in the Public square because of the “potential risk to the brave men and women of our secret services”, and “the grave danger tot he United States as a world leader if that data got out”…..Show us that……just show us you care the same about the handling of these documents is the same as you did when Hillary was the target. If Hillary had a party at her house with Boxes of classified documents just sitting in an adjacent room you would all loose your damn minds and you would have been marching in the streets wanting a civil war.

    Trum NEVER had a majority of supporters int eh US. Thats just a fact.

    < 47% every election so far.... They're either REALLY silent (and don't vote) or perhaps you should consider it's not the majority...

    In fact, Trump got only 31% of eligible voters in 2020, and 35% of registered voters, with a turnout of 67%. We all know that higher turnout favors Dems, which is why the GOP is so desperate to suppress the vote. In any case, the numbers are pretty clear that there are probably around 25% of the voting-age population who are excited Trump fans, 5% less fervent Trump supporters, and some more % who probably would support Trump but generally could care less. In no way does that make a majority.

    And just when I thought this was the dumbest (and most inappropriate) thread in CE, I see this new contender

    http://www.politicalforum.com/index...i-should-be-tossed-across-the-potomac.603199/

    Much like this country, this site has been dragged down to accommodate the lowest common denominator....

    Such as Trump knowing about a meeting with Russians providing dirt on Hillary, in the Trump Tower back in 2016.

    https://www.cnn.com/2018/07/26/poli...-trump-june-2016-meeting-knowledge/index.html

    "
    CNN —
    Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump’s former personal attorney, claims that then-candidate Trump knew in advance about the June 2016 meeting in Trump Tower in which Russians were expected to offer his campaign dirt on Hillary Clinton, sources with knowledge tell CNN. Cohen is willing to make that assertion to special counsel Robert Mueller, the sources said.

    Cohen alleges that he was present, along with several others, when Trump was informed of the Russians’ offer by Trump Jr. By Cohen’s account, Trump approved going ahead with the meeting with the Russians, according to sources.

    To be clear, these sources said Cohen does not have evidence, such as audio recordings, to corroborate his claim, but he is willing to attest to his account.    "

    Yah... I believe that one 100%... Zero chance anybody met with his campaign head and son in Trump Tower without the knowledge and approval of the Boss..

    And I'm not sure you can blame CNN for that one... If you don't believe it yourself (snicker), blame Cohen...

    Or Bannon, for this worse version

    How is that different than anyone else supporting a party/politician? In the case of this raid, what did they find that his supporters are not seeing?
