They should be talking to a mic, or on every political show demanding TFG gives the Americaan people answers, like "Have all documents that were removed been returned now", and if he says as far as he knows bs asked him why he doesn't know.. The Dems should be repeating calls for him to answer like republicans demanded AG Garland answer to the American people.
They need to bring up also why he refused for a while giving back the first bunch of documents, then after returning them refused (the 2nd time) giving them all back to the FBI. Dems need to bring up all his excues he's had on the documents like saying it was a hoax, or planted, if he, as he now claims, declassified them, which he'll have zero proof he went through the process. Nobody will beieve those excuses.
Dems should be hammeing him in the media and taking the republicans narrrative from them with this now. The Dems should ask republicans if he's returned all the documents, then if President Biden can do the same thing when he leaves office. When TFG returned the first set of documents , he admitted by returning them his guilt that he took them. The republicans are trying to find out and expose who was informing the FBI, and how you know how corrupt they've become.

(21,256 posts)Trump had those documents for 18 months. Who is going to find out that a friend of Prince Bone Saw showed up at Mar-el-Loco, was given classified documents, and then Jared Kushner was given 2 billion dollars. Who is going to find that out?
What will be interesting to the FBI won't just be what they found, but what they didn't find, what is still missing.

(9,670 posts)Best to step back and let the DOJ/FBI/J6 do their things. The time for politicking will come soon enough.

(44,063 posts)bill instead. Which they are doing. Voters need to know the great things Democrats have done for everyday Americans.
Your ideas play straight into the hands of Trumpworld propagandists.

(1,764 posts)absolutely not.
This is a criminal investigation and the party shouldn't touch this with a 10ft pole right now.
Leveraging this right now only serves to fuel the right wing conspiracy baloney about this being a political witch hunt.
There is a time and a place, and right now is neither. Let this play out first.

(38,529 posts)At this point, there's something to be said for letting the DOJ do it's job.
Dems got a lot done this session. Tout that.
Let the GOPers dig their own hole.
