CNN: The FBI just raided Mar-A-Lago

God what I'd give to see whatever illegible bullshut Trump scribbled down on a napkin.
Gonna be tough(er) to argue for keeping the warrant under wraps now that the WSJ has spoiled the entire thing lmao
The fact that he returned SOME documents, but kept these very limited amount of other documents, even though I'm sure the original subpoena required their return - is all the proof you need to show that they knew it was wrong to keep.
They know the "PLANTED EVIDENCE! I DIDNT HAVE NOTHING!!!" thing isn't it. The network talking heads need time to come up with something stronger.
Someone please give me some fucking hope here, this is finally what ends this fucker's reign, right?
Yeah it shows some broke the chain by allowing him to get them in the first place
Checking in some of the usual spots, looks like they're getting ready to throw Trump under the bus, saying that he was always just a useful idiot, and pushing for DeSantis.
Someone linked a thread from r/conservative here last night where on of the posters suggested that Trump took the nuclear documents "to keep them away from Biden" which is just... an insane degree of mental gymnastics.
(It was in one of these threads, there are like three that I've been following. We really ought to consolidate into a Trump Warrant OT like they did for Ezra Miller.)

I know this is from quite a few posts ago, but this makes *a lot* of sense.
It also shows the screenshot was taken when post was 0m old, highlighting again the symbiotic relationship between Trump and Maggie Haberman/NYT. His post was clearly coordinated with her and she knew about it second it went up or sent the screenshot by Team Trump immediately after he posted it. When he wants her to print something, she does it.
Yeah, so a lot of purposeful planning must have gone into stealing them
I also really dislike Haberman's work these past few years, but I'd just as soon guess that she's got alerts or even a screencap bot on Trump's Truth Social account.
Eh.. could just as easily be a bot that takes screenshots every time he says something.
Which is exactly the type of tool a news org would employ.
Lol wait. When did he say this? It reads like that AI generated speech.
It's the only thing that still makes sense to me. The idea that trump was selling state secrets or information about nuclear tech sort-of makes sense to a degree but I think that in order to do that Trump would actually have to be cunning and not ruled by his impulses and we have the last 6 years of his behavior to look at that tells us Trump is only ruled by his impulses. He had a bunch of the documents stored near the fucking pool house for fucks sake and other stuff in a safe. That's not what someone does when they're trying to commit espionage. He'll probably get charged with espionage, but I don't think his intent was espionage. I think he was trying to cover his own ass from other crimes that he committed while in office.
This entire thing reeks of actions take by someone who doesn't know what he has but he knows there's incriminating evidence about his behavior in 4 years of documentation that he has to do something about. So on the way out the door he takes a ton of things because he doesn't know where the incriminating evidence actually is and he doesn't trust people to go through it. And trump is such a fucking narcissist that instead of doing his due diligence and dealing with those documents, he's spent the last 18 months grifting, sorry, fundraising, and holding rallies to talk about how life is so unfair for him.
If Trump sold state secrets he would have done it while if office not after because he wouldn't have access to the mechanisms to cover up the transactions. Which goes back to my original theory. And why say they planted evidence? Cause you know what you did and you think the FBI just found the proof of it.

They probably got it from Trump's side, and they wouldn't have had the affidavit. And I'd honestly be shocked if anything more than this were in the unsealed documents.

After reading all this, the thing that came to my mind is:
Imagine having a document of the highest order of secrecy being printed, it stops, and the person printing it tells a coworker, "I can't print the nuclear documents. I gotta run to Walmart and get more ink."

I really wanna laugh. Like it reads like one of those AI things that listen to him and generate something. Or like some druken Justin Roiland rant behind the scenes of Rick and Morty...
I wanna laugh but then I'm like... Damn man that guy was president
The obvious question that comes to mind for me then is why wouldn't a guy who was notorious for shredding and destroying documents, hated people taking notes, hated paper trails, suddenly decide to keep incriminating or damning top secret evidence about himself and not just destroy all of it? Then do what he always does and deny, deny, deny.
To me I honestly circle back to either he did think he could profit off some of this, or he wanted it for his own selfish reasons. Like they were documents about what he thought were great moments like his conversations with Kim or some shit. Or stuff his narcissistic self believed he was entitled to and was being petty out the door.
IDk, not saying yours isn't plausible, certainly is, just not sure I can rule out other things yet
What's the end play for the guy that's used to getting out of trouble? Seems this one he won't be able to.
I think it's really simple why didn't get rid of the documents. He didn't know what all was there. He didn't trust anybody to shred the docs, he's too lazy to do it himself, and didn't think he was going to get in trouble for having those documents. He's the smartest and greatest president ever, remember? Lol
Right now it seems to be to get his allies in congress to change the laws so that he didn't do anything wrong lol.
Man why did you bump this thread I thought there was new news 😑
Normally not fan of necro bumps but that was a funny joke.
Unless I've been misinformed, I don't think this qualifies as a necro-bump if the last posts before mine were only four days ago. I apologize for setting off people's alarms, but I chose not to respond until I had finished reading every post in the thread. It took a few days.
Do not insult the author of my favorite poem that severely, holy cow.
