Trump did nothing that every other President had already done. Democrats are using the government as a political weapon to stop Trump from running again, because they know this time he'll win and clean up the corrupt government.

And that, IMHO, is correct!

Didn’t Comey state there was enough evidence but he couldn’t ‘prove intent’ so he wouldn’t forward the case? Proving intent was not his purview at all was it?

He did not have the authority to make that decision, but he did, and the corrupt administration just let the entire fiasco go. They were not going to prosecute on of "their own".

There are no identifying marks on the outside cover, which is used to transfer the files from one location to another as they don't want the outside of the cover to give away what is inside.

which could also mean that they may not have been anything in them when they were transported. The empty folders just got thrown in with the others.

Because the amount and quality of the evidence did not warrant an indictment.

That's the biggest BS statement ever. She intended to break the law by setting up a computer in her home that she intended to have and had classified information on. According to government agencies some of that data was most likely breeched by Russian hackers. quit making excuses for that lying evil woman.

He is being given considerations far beyond that of a normal citizen. How many times have you seen a “Special Master” appointed to stop a criminal investigation? I have never heard of it before. It is an anomaly.
Others would be waiting for a court date.

the special master is not to "stop a criminal investigation". That master is there to see if there is evidence of a crime.

It was agains the law to take the documents to an unsecured location, , and it was equally bad to obstruct their recovery. The FBI had no choice to to follow up on the lead—and it turned to be true. Son of a Gun! Who would have thought?
Remember “Lock her up” or the accusations against Bolton. Trump did worse, but he shouldn’t have the same accountability?

You cannot make that claim UNLESS it turns out that there are documents that were not declassified and Trump had intent to use those documents against the USA. And unless Hillary Clinton gets locked up for her unlawful acts, you on the left have no right to badmouth Trump in the fashion that you are doing.

And I could point to any number of Trump's lies including the big lie that the election was stolen. But let me refer you to one in particular that bears on this case. Trump, in a sworn affidavit, saying that he had returned all of the documents when in fact, he did not. Which is why the judge signed off on the warrant, right?

All of the bombast and bluster and fakery may work well in a Trump rally. It does not play that well in court.

I saw an article that said there are 133 million registered voters in America. Trump won 74 million, Biden 81 million. That equals 155 million..... so please explain how the election wasn't stolen. There is plenty of documentation of voter fraud. Once again..... history will tell the story.

Not anymore than you have already exonerated him.

I don't think anyone here has exonerated him. Most of us have said, "lets wait and see what comes out". That is much different than exonerating him. But, you on the left have tried and hung him. PERIOD.

That is simply not true. Some of these documents are so sensitive they can only be viewed in a SCIF.

In the news yesterday it was firmly stated that yes, ALL presidents have taken home classified and unclassified government documents. They even went as far to say that Obama still has some as well in his possession. True or not? Depends on who you believe.

Saw on the main stream news (not Fox) last night a segment about this and heard the interesting comment that a majority of those Top Secret folders shown as ‘evidence’ were in fact empty.

wouldn't that be prime if Trump set them up....I would laugh my butt off for sure for days if that were to happen.

The bias of the FBI is your opinion, not a fact. The materials seized will be presented as evidence if there is an indictment. And the entire package will be considered proof, no matter what you think.

The courts (where Trump does not have a great track record) will decide. Not you.

I think it has been well proven that the bias of the FBI is a fact. I think the whistleblowers in the lower positions of the FBI will make sure that everyone knows this before long.

The sad thing is that you really believe that such a potential national security threat is comparable to overdue library books all because this is what Trump stupidly did. Your position is as twisted as what Rubio said this morning.
Any other government employee who took classified material home and left them unsecured for visitors to see would be awaiting trial by now.
Your response exemplifies your blind love of Trump over country (national security to be specific)

I would stake my life that there is NO national security issues in those boxes. And, until you start petitioning for Hillary Clinton to go to prison for her illegal computers with classified information in her home, you should probably shut your mouth. No one will take you seriously because of your TDS and party bias.

Yes, you are right. All this has done kept the war going on longer. End in end he will be wearing orange jumpsuit.

I hope you're going to apologize for making that assumption when it doesn't happen.

And you trust Trump?

After all the lunacy by the left in the last 6 years, YES. MANY trust Trump much more that anyone on the left.
