Where am I using a 'wrong' to make up for another 'wrong', in your view? (serious non-rhetorical question, with no antagonism intended.)


My thoughts are as follows:

The issue in this portion was an original statement that 'Trump cooperated'.

My comments in this section are directed to denote that he did *not* cooperate. Not really in the slightest.

Further, had I been at the DOJ, and was on notice that Trump had a bevy of things in his possession that he shouldnt, and had I encountered the breadth and depth of obstruction that is denoted -- hell yes I would have sought a warrant to get the stuff back. Absolutely -- and twice on Sunday.

There is nothing wrong about that chain of events.

Except….. Trump had months to copy any documents he wanted. Copies he made would be his and his alone. At that time he could have handed all of them back when they asked. The originals were the only ones the government could confiscate. Why he didn’t is the question. Did he give them the rope to hang themselves in the end? Possibly. I’m sure he knew from past precedence with the FBI that they would step over the line. This is a real cat and mouse game going on that we really don’t know all the details of. I am beginning to believe we find out some interesting things before this is over. It is not as simple as it seems.
