Hmmm. So I think this latest indictment is a mistake. If I was ''in charge'', I would have passed. Georgia is a much stronger case, IMO. Wait for that.
Bullet points on why I would have NOT brought charges.
1. He's guilty, but ''not really''. Trump could have declassified the Docs. He didn't do it the ''proper'' way, and seemed to admit it on tape. Yeah, so? That is a soft legal point at best.
2. He had some classified docs in boxes. Might have showed a couple, to a couple of people. So? Was anyone harmed, any real secret dessiminated? No evidence of it. Find me something that was egregiously passed on.
3. All of us here are Fucking Felons in Texas, according to the dipshit assumption that we aid trafficking by posting here. Just because a law exists, doesn't make it worthy or right.. Or punishable. Espionage Act of 1917? Please.
4. Hillary Clinton acid washed her 33,000 emails. Biden, Pence, Bill Clinton, Obama all took Documents home. Don't tell me ''yeah, but they cooperated''. Fuck. Nobody gave a rat's ass that they took anything, docs, furniture, whatever.
5. Trump was given a chance to hand it all over, strike a plea deal. Why didn't he?
Because he didn't really think he did anything wrong. Did he? Sort of. But are we guilty, here on ECCIE? Just because a letter of a law claims you're guilty, and you can quote a line from it, doesn't make it actionable. A Procrustean effort can find a crime almost anywhere. Like the Cop who stops you for no turn signal, then socks you with no Insurance, bad brake light, out of date inspection, and 20 more things. 31 counts of the indictment could have been just ONE
6. There are many failed ''get Trump'' efforts before. Russia, Russia, Russia, the Mueller Report, 2 impeachments, wiretapping his Hotel. Why add another flimsy charge?
7. The Trial will likely be delayed past next election. Trump is stronger since the indictment, and may pardon himself.
8. Hunter Biden. If 1/10 of that is proveable, it makes Trump look like Mickey Mouse. That shit might have fallen off the public radar, but not now. It's get even time.
