..but we should also not want to blow it out of proportion.
More than likely, after the MAL search warrant, Biden requested that his files be searched to make sure there were no "classified" documents that had been inadvertently stored with other documents. When they were discovered, they probably decided to not make them public, so close to affect the next election.
But, as usual, any criminal aspect is determined by "intent". Biden's "intent" was to return all classified documents back to the NARA. Trump's "intent" was to keep the documents for himself and his own interests.
However, that does not mean we should disregard any possibilities of nefarious actors. It was always questionable at how Guiliani had come across Hunter Biden's laptop? Also, we should not forget the Project Veritas case with Biden's daughter, Ashley, when a Florida pair pleaded guilty to conspiring with Project Veritas to steal her diary. So, "dirty tricks" are not out of the question.
Most likely, the documents were inadvertently stored by Biden's assistants, but we cannot completely overlook dirty tricks anytime Roger Stone is involved with the opposition.
