    we need to apply occams razor to trump. the simplest answer is the most likely. trump is a collector. he likes keepsakes. in his office he has shitloads of bric-a brac. tom brady jerseys and messier hockey sticks and posters and trophies and various mementos. thats why he kept that shit. its not a big deal. its a guy keeping his souvenirs. just forget about it. its a non-story.

    one of the narratives you "walls closing in" types enjoy is saying that trump has multiple legal problems at once. this isnt a problem. nothing will come of it.

    the walls are not closing in. just be happy trump is probably finished anyways.

    Not true not even close. He never created or owned the documents. The documents were always owned by the federal government. At best he was a caretaker and a corrupt one. He took them without providing a record of what he took and obstructed the search. He never had the right to take/own them.

    It is in the constitution that a president or any other federal officer cant accept gifts. There are multiple laws detailing the ownership and use of government property. Clinton got in trouble over taking things from the White House after he left office. Obama, W, HW Bush and every other president had to document what he want in his library and have written permission. Trump has done nothing like this and isn’t even planning a library…..assuming he can find someplace to host it. Martin you and the others are full of shit and you at least know it.

    Wrong. His predecessors had to request permission to take things and acknowledge the government owns them. If you’re old enough to remember or not senile if you are; Clinton got in trouble for taking things and had to return them.

    No the law is the answer. Trump took things he neither owned or had any right to. That is clearly established law and to repeat it’s been the law for a long time. You’re probably too young but Clinton got in trouble for “collecting “ things he didn’t own when he left the White House.

    but the determination that trump should and will be arrested is up to you? you are in charge of the walls? you push the "close in" button"

    thats interesting i dont have the legal knowledge to say these things. maybe you more educated in DOJ procedure. but its worth noting you have been wrong many times with the walls closing in claims.

    For the 100th time, the president of the United States is the #1 authority on ALL government documents.

    Biden can use nuke codes to clean out his diaper and it would be legal.

    You dont know shit so stop listening to MSNBC et al.
