What Trump really said to Hannity. I have no defense.

[fightforfreedom]

I can declassify anything I want is a foolish, ridiculous, childlike, defense.

Trump failed big time in his quest to delay the investigation. The special master, like I predicted will finish his review quickly. It is now full steam ahead for the secret document investigation. Trump knows he is going to be indicted.

Trump is not being investigated for stealing White House silverware, note pads. He stole our biggest secrets and lied to a Federal Grand Jury about stealing top secrets. He put our entire national security at risk. That is as serious as it gets. The DOJ is going to nail his ass to a wall.

Trumps luck has run out. The American people, who suffer from great apathy, better prepare themselves for what's coming their way. There are going to be trials, a lot of them. Trump is going to be indicted. Things are going to get intense and that's the way it should be.

3. Did anyone check him for silverware on the way out?

Guy’s been a grifter and a fraud his entire life. Now he’s taken it to a new level-except this time there’s nobody to cover for him and there’s people who won’t stand for his bullshit after him.

42. He only recognizes

gold as a precious metal - and even then it just has to be the color gold, it doesn't have to actually be gold!

[Mr. Ected]

4. Preach

I liken all of Trump's court filings to Dick Dastardly strewing thumbtacks on the race track in Wacky Racers. Just a nasty way to slow everything down, but no great challenge to Lady Justice.

Some of his coupmates might buy his "I am President, I am Invincible " bullshit, but surely many will begrudgingly see right through it. If they don't, tough shit. Buck up, little snowflakes.

UN the little league. He really thought he was a big shot and now it is over. He and his spawn are criminals - shameless scoundrels being squashed like bugs.The orange leaves fall and rot in this season.

47. It hit me that you wrote this in a "Haiku-like" format. It reads like that as well.

6. What are the Vegas odds of this indictment coming before the Nov. elections?

That'd be devastating to the R's, completely taking the wind out of their sails, except for the Maga die-hards. But apparently the wheels of justice grind slowly, or so I've read somewhere, and this seems like a really crucial piece of timing. Fingers crossed!

8. Right now, I'd say 1.5:1.

[MyMission]

11. My bet is the day after election day, when it's clear that

Dems have won the Senate and House.

"Not only did we beat your ass, we're indicting your traitorous figurehead."

I had the thought that if it was done before election day it might suppress democratic turnout, because some of our voters might think that the enditement was the win.

[AZLD4Candidate]

7. Childish Defense, not childlike. Childlike is a compliment implying innocent nature

Childish is what the weapon's grade plum is. Extremely childish.

Other than that, I agree completely with your OP.

9. Captain von Cuckoo Pants said he can declassify top secret docs just by thinking about them!

Also that the FBI might have been looking for Hillary's emails!

[doctorzuma]

35. LOL Hannity thinks Trump may have Hillary's missing e-mails!!!

My favorite part comes at around 1:22 into the second interview when Trump mentions that the FBI may have been looking for "the Hillary Clinton e-mails," and Hannity actually says "you're not saying you have it." I LOVE IT --for a moment Hannity actually believed that Trump was saying he had had them! Yes, Hannity not only did Trump find Hillary's e-mails but also located the exact location of Santa's workshop in the Northpole and the hole the Easter Bunny lives in, which is most likely, the one on his backside.

[LymphocyteLover]

43. LOL! It's all so insane.

[chriscan64]

49. Trump's explanation made it even more entertaining.

He goes into this conspiracy improv, throwing the phrase "could have" out there mixed in with wild hypotheticals.

[Justice matters.]

45. Looks to me as advanced signs of dementia eating his brain cells a little more...

There is no common sense cognitive answers there.

50. yes, plus anyone who lies that much has to lose some sense of reality

[The Jungle 1]

10. This will be difficult America.

But it must happen. trump and all his criminal associates must be prosecuted.
Letting people like bundy and nixon get away with crime is why we are in this distasteful position.
Bailing out the banks and insurance companies because of their crimes was also a mistake. It is past time for people to pay for their crimes.

41. Trump hid classified documents in his desk.

Digging up hos ex-wife's coffin might get him sympathy. It sure won't find evidence.

17. But - but - but ---

Ms. Lindsey Graham said there would be violence in the streets if Trump is indicted!!!!!

I live in a red, rural VA county surrounded by heavily-armed Trumphumpers. Hell, one of our local businessmen rented a 42-passenger bus and went to the Jan 6 riot -- three of his passengers are now in jail, two others are awaiting trial (the others were smart enough to get on the bus and come back home). Should I stock up on AR-15, shotgun, rifle, and pistol ammo?

[SouthernDem4ever]

21. Lindsey Graham will cower in fear

until the bloodshed is over then will act all brave.

I'll bet if he pulls the trigger it will knock him on his ass.

18. "I have no defense, and I'm gonna BS my way out of this"

"I'm smarter than all the lawyers, so I'm gonna just keep talking."

Someday it will come out that Chump & Kushner (the bagman) either gave or sold those secrets to someone. But meanwhile he will go on trial soon and we don't have that proof yet. All we know is that Chump left the White House on Jan. 20, 2021 with those documents illegally in his possession.

It became general knowledge almost a year later that Chump took those top secret documents and didn't return them. After lies and denials, he finally did return some of them, the FBI came and got more, and we now know that some documents are still mysteriously missing. Now the lies and bullshit excuses are knee-deep and growing.

To me the best evidence is to follow the path of Jared Kushner in December 2020 and early January 2021, as Chump's term was ending. That was his last chance to grift, and he made multiple trips to the Middle East. Saudi Arabia was the main focus and he returned from Saudi a multi-billionaire. Hmmmm ....

[Pepsidog]

33. Do you think our IC knows who he sold the docs to? I would think they must know.

[FakeNoose]

39. If they do know, they aren't saying

Many of us can guess though.

[twodogsbarking]

19. I can make Trump look like a crook just by thinking about it; or not.

[SouthernDem4ever]

20. The 11th Districe judges all agree, he's an idiot

Well, they didn't say it like that but you know what I mean.

[niyad]

26. Stroke out already, you F'n, murdering, orange TRAITOR**.

[Evolve Dammit]

29. "I de-classify everything." I believe was a quote. What a fucking maroon. Be laughable if not so

serious. I hope Archives and DOJ know if all the empty files and perhaps others nobody knows about? can be accounted for. I tend to think many were sold, given, copied and distributed or squirreled away in other locations. FBI should have taken a month and torn MAGAT LAGO down to the wall and floor studs. Don't overlook the overloaded septic/sewer system either. Wouldn't surprise me if there was a "special dry well" system to accept flushed documents. And then there's Bedminster..

[Pepsidog]

30. A desperate man throwing everything against the wall and hoping it will stick with

the dopes who follow him. Keep talking Traitor because it’s all going to come back and bite you in the ass.

[samsingh]

34. I hope so.

[3auld6phart]

37. It has been

Noted before. One has to wonder what makes him tick? Does he not resize yet, is he
aware that he isn’t the Messiah.. probably not, narcissistic orange asshole.,cannot
and willnot give up his vision . Is there no way to keep him from shutting up Maga idiots?

[ThoughtCriminal]

40. One thing Trump never gets asked

Why did you telepathically "declassify" these top secret documents?

[lame54]

44. So, he gets away with the silverware

[Brainfodder]

46. Espionage and he added firing squad back during his tenure!

I agree espionage should get the death penalty.

Agreeing with TFG!

I prefer no mask, I want a reasonable close up so I can see the exact frame he gets IT, the look on face: PRICELESS!

I'll want it 4K, I'll freeze the frame and screenshot, I'll sent it to a printer for a 6' by 4' and it's going on a wall!

Besides, feel like dancing!

Dream big.

48. "The special master, like I predicted will finish his review quickly."

I saw this buried in an article that I had a LBN OP about yesterday -

Dearie asks Trump lawyers whether they believe FBI lied about seized documents

By Perry Stein
September 22, 2022 at 4:05 p.m. EDT

(snip)

Dearie also said in his Thursday order that James Orenstein, a former U.S. magistrate judge for the Eastern District of New York, would help him with the review. He said Orenstein has served on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court and holds top-secret government clearance, which means that he would theoretically be able to review many of the seized classified documents if required.

(Read special master Raymond Dearie's Sept. 22 order PDF)

Orenstein is most known for a 2015 case in which he determined that prosecutors did not have the legal authority to force Apple to help investigators bypass the passcode feature on a drug dealer’s iPhone.

Dearie said he expects to use court staff from the Eastern District of New York to help him with his special master duties.
