Now that Biden and Pence, from opposite parties and ideologies, have come clean, can we all just admit that they both did it hoping to avoid deeper trouble if the existence of those documents was leaked later?
Time for Obama, GWB et al to come forward while there’s still time.
The National Archives reported it to the DOJ due to some of the documents being damaged which is what I understand is part of their protocol. It was only when the DOJ got involved that Trump threw his teddy out and started stamping his feet.
Shouldn’t stop at ex-pres and ex-veep. You can bet attorneys general, secy of state, other cabinet members, congress critters, and likely other positions have also taken classified docs and not returned them (whether deliberately or inadvertently.)
We know it reaches at least into the Senate. Biden has demonstrated that.
Is it a leap to expect that it’s widespread in DOD positions? I think not.
The game is to keep us all fighting so we keep clicking and watching and listening to news sources that affirm our positions and denegrate the other side.
Imagine
White guy does something. Police say “that’s okay.”
Repeat, repeat repeat.
Black guy does something, police strat demanding he stop doing that.
The black guy would be 100% right to be defiant and tell them “go pound sand/. I;ve got attorneys. You are messing with the wrong guy.” We’d all be cheering him.
Donald Trump sees himself in a similar role except for political rather than racial reasons. I think he is probably correct.
I hate selective law enforcement. So do most people.
