Wow..weeks? So that means the urgency concerning national security was a bogus talking point.

Yup. But we all figured that anyway. This DOJ is pure totalitarian politicized trash.

Considering the number of boxes taken and being inventoried as 'classified'......

I really does look that Trump retained a world of papers that had zero business being in Mar a Lago.

Again -- my view and prediction.

Trump spent a boatload of time fighting the election outcome to the last minute.

In a normal transition, the outgoing President and staff has a ton of time to actually review the stuff being boxed and hauled out. Trump didnt have that time due to his focus. On top of it, a good proportion of his staff walked out Jan 6 and 7th because of, well.... Jan 6.

Short time and short handed.

Trump threw all the stuff together in a flam flam rush job and carted it down to Florida. National Archives figured that out, and pressed the DOJ to get the stuff back. That is, to comply with the Presidential Records Act.

Trump, being Trump, just stalled them at every opportunity. There is record of at least two subpoenas being served, and Trump's attorney signing a letter to them saying 'bug off we dont have anymore'. But they did.

So the Feds simply pulled a power play to get the stuff back they knew was there. Considering the amount of stuff pulled out and marked as secret or confidential, there sure was a lot of the stuff around when Trump's attorney sent the Feds a letter stating that there were none left. Ooopsie for him. He's screwed signing that letter on behalf of Trump.

Now that the Feds have the documents back, there will be zero charges pressed on it. Trump gets to play the forever victim, and all his acolytes get to share in the victimhood card. Cant wait for the Forever Everything Conspiracy that I am sure Trump will get going with.

Again, Trump flipped the Feds the birdie over the documents, Feds grabbed them. Zero charges come out of it.

And Trump's attorney is going to get boned for signing that letter saying that there was nothing left there. Kind of like anyone that ever represents Trump ends up at. The attorney cant claim that Trump told him to do that, since Trump will tell him 'attorney privilege --- you cant say anything I said to you', and leave that schmuck hanging in the wind like everyone around Trump ends up. Classic.
