SMH I just can't even go there. It's sad, but Biden discovering these documents in his possession at his homes is giving Trump a free pass on his treasonous, treachery, and refusal to voluntarily return the classified docs in his possession.
What reason did Trump have these documents? We all know Trump doesn't read, refused to read in own briefing material, almost refused to listen to briefings unless to dig up dirt on pol opponents. Plus, any foreign affairs dealings for Trump was for his own personal benefit and not national business.
On the other hand, Biden has been in international foreign affairs for most of his political career and was one of the reasons Obama selected him for VP. As VP, he was deeply involved in security and international affairs. AND we know Biden actually read his briefing materials and could speak about most foreign affair matters on behalf of the US and not himself.

Some of these documents go back to when Biden was in the Senate.

(45,436 posts)I dont know if Republicans dont know the difference, they do know the difference and dont care, or they are deliberately lying probably all three

(18,579 posts)Scare tactics about cutting Medicare and Social Security. You get together, decide where the waste is, cut that. But most everyone has their pet project, you get together and work on it. He talked about the climate, China. FOR ONCE Todd was not smart.
Then I went to Dana on CNN. Joe was there. Talking sensible again.

(18,579 posts)But using scare tactics are all Republicans have going and the media eats it up.
Just like the media screeched about 2 Democrats. As Biden said, Joe has always been with me! Sure enough Joe was right beside him when he signed the budget.

(45,436 posts)They just cant get it through their heads that a Democratic president could be completely innocent and honest. As far as theyre concerned Democrats are guilty until proven innocent. Trump hes just being cute little Trump.

This is just the first volley.
I would prefer tfg be indicted over the insurrection anyway - even tho talking heads and internet attorneys have all said the docs is the easier case.
Sometimes lawyers have their heads up their asses.

(14,180 posts)They want another Trump presidency. If they dont, then they damn well better stop asking for it, because this is where it will lead.
They are consistently ignoring the important differences between Trump and Biden. Instead, theyre jumping on Joe for not reporting it the very second the first documents were found. Anything to shit on the Dems, it seems.
Where were these asshats back in 2015 when Trump rolled down the escalator? They could have finished his campaign early, without breaking a sweat. Oh, yeah
Trump made good copy.
Sick of it.

(12,800 posts)She must have realized her mistake because she backtracked for a minute or two explaining how they were different. What amazed me was how she quickly jumped in the bothsiderism cess pool and then caught herself.

(1,533 posts)NARA knew Trump documents were missing, so my opinion is Biden's tiny stack is nothing of importance.

(25 posts)I still want to see a dna and/or finger print analysis done on these documents. It is clearly possible they were all planted.
