I believe that the only place that was argued was on Twitter. I do not think that his lawyers ever pushed forward an argument in court that he declassified the documents (something could have been filed recently, but a quick google is showing that as of the last filing in September that argument was not being presented).Quote:

OK. But the whole thing just comes off as the one millionth "walls are closing in" "bombshell" situation, and people were just sure this was really the one. Then it turns out Biden did essentially the same thing, and the sad cope of realizing Trump is going to slip away again has been hard to watch.Quote:

How much more proof do you need of the bias bullsheet?
Indict them all!! (Not happening)
(I can hear the “but Trump” now. Irrelevant)
The real difference is that Pence and Biden lawyers, upon finding documents, invited the FBI to come in, take them and search the other premises.
Trump ignored requests, partially responded to a subpoena, had his lawyers say they had returned everything (when they hadn't)......only then did DOJ go to a judge to get a warrant for the premises to recover documents. Then kept fighting with a handpicked judge for a special master and blocking access to what had been seized...until an appeals court blew the circuit judge's nonsense out of the water.
Pretty sad if you can't tell the difference in these two situations.
I just don't really see how any of that matters. i already don't like Trump. It makes me feel about the same about him as I always did. I don't really see any basis for the legal punishment for the alleged crime to be materially different for Trump as compared to the others.
Trump's an asshole. Wow, glad we cleared that up again.
As I predicted. The “but Trump”. Still irrelevant. Biden’s “lawyers” made sure that nothing was reported for 2 months. Ignoring “Transparency”.Quote:

Like Go said. None of the other stuff matters.
Seems as if Biden’s and Stacy Abrams’ “Jim Crow 2.0” was an abject failure…..For Jim Crow!!!
Wrong again Lefties!!!
UGA poll: 0% of black respondents said their voting experience in Georgia was poor in the 2022 midterm election. Around 73% of black voters said it was excellent, equal to white voters.

Personally, I can't wait to see how the late night folks treat Pence for having classified docs in his possession. There's more comedic value in him holding those docs versus being disgusted with other politicians hoarding them (and willfully trying to hide in some cases).
Just hope we can say this act prohibits someone from seeking the presidency. Since we don’t have a maximum age, at least we can get rid of two 80 year olds.Quote:
