It turns out Trump wanted to wipe the server...

[CaptainTruth]

...the server at Mar-a-Largo holding video surveillance recordings.

I'm so old I can remember when Republicans said wiping a server was really, really, really bad.

What do they say now?

[intrepidity]

1. Lock him up!!

(yeahrightsuretheydo)

[CaptainTruth]

30. +100

I'll support that!

[sarcasmo]

2. Maybe Trump wanted to Acid wash the server?

[orthoclad]

6. Inject it with bleach and ultraviolet light.

[boston bean]

23. Maybe pool water. Chlorine.

[orthoclad]

29. Yeah, but then you need a flood of it,

low concentration.

[Silent Type]

3. Like always, it's whatabout Hillary's emails.

[Snooper9]

4. Short Years ago, Shitty Resort, Old School CCTV

The VHS were probably overwritten every 37 minutes

[2naSalit]

5. And probably...

Upgraded at taxpayer expense while he was in office.

[LastDemocratInSC]

7. The superceding indictment says the server had 45 days of recordings at any given time.

[Snooper9]

8. That should be interesting

If stupid had a good lawyer/team they would look at all the footage during discovery.

[CaptainTruth]

31. AP tweet said "tapes" which made me wonder how old the system was.

Does anybody still use tapes in a video surveillance system? Seems like that's so 80s-90s.

[moreland01]

9. They're saying . . .

Hillary blah blah blah deleted emails blah blah blah something something server.

[C Moon]

10. I would rather not read the words "wipe" and "trump" in the same sentence.

[Liber T.]

16. come on

I wipe my trump at least once a day.

[newdayneeded]

22. After dropping a Rudy

[C Moon]

39. HA HA HA!

[C Moon]

37. LOL!

[CaptainTruth]

32. How about "wipe Trump from the face of the Earth?"

[C Moon]

38. Yes! That worked!

[CaptainTruth]

42. +100

[Elwood P Dowd]

11. How can one man fuck up so badly so often and yet

continue to receive so much love from millions of Americans? You would think most normal people would be ashamed to even admit they voted for him, yet somehow he still gets rabid support from like 75% of the republican voters.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

15. That's awesome, when tRump's shitcanned, that 75% of Rethugz WON'T VOTE FOR ANYONE ELSE & WE WIN!!

[patricia92243]

17. People kill themselves for a cult leader. n/t

[Liberal In Texas]

21. The cult members never hear the stories like this. They only listen or watch AM radio, Fox, Newsmax

etc. and will never even hear the story. If they happen to, it'll be dismissed as fake news. Because anything from the MSN media can't be believed.

They are truly brainwashed.

[CaptainTruth]

33. He hates the same people they hate.

I think they like him because he punishes the people they hate.

It's not intellectual, it's emotional.

It's the only explanation that makes sense to me.

[ExWhoDoesntCare]

41. I think I can help you out here

You seem to think that the people who voted for him are normal.

They're not. They're abnormal, and abnormal people do abnormal things. So that answers why they do what they do.

As for the why of who they are, well, I leave that to the professionals (therapists) who have volunteered for that job. I don't have the patience for it. Or the interest. It's enough to know they're out there, and act accordingly by avoiding them at all costs.

I'm lucky enough to have the kind of lifestyle that lets me do that, almost always.

[TeamProg]

12. Why did the POTUS have a SERVER at his private residence?? nt

[drray23]

13. That is the mar a lago security system.

It was holding security footage of interest to Jack smith.

[TeamProg]

14. My angle eluded to the GQP complaining about Hillary's home servers...

[Maeve]

34. Yeah, a lot of them have less understanding of computers than my mom does

Finally gave up trying to have her use a laptop because she couldn't remember how to do anything but scroll thru Facebook (and she kept clicking on spam-infested links)

[canetoad]

18. His defence will be

That it was the server, the person who served his meals.

[malaise]

27. ROFL

😀😀😀

[no_hypocrisy]

19. What happened?

Was the server wiped?

If it wasn't wiped, then what happened? Did the Federal Prosecutor subpoena the server before it could be destroyed or was TFG unable to figure out how to do it?

[CaptainTruth]

35. Good question. I'm not sure if DOJ got the video.

In the court filing I saw there were discussions of Trump wanting the video deleted, but it wasn't clear if it was actually deleted.

[Kid Berwyn]

20. Benghazi!

Hunter’s laptop!

[retread]

24. What do they say now? Hunter Biden!! Hunter Biden!!

[Hugin]

25. What does he know about wiping...

Seriously.

Although, this would explain the TP crisis a couple of years back.

[durablend]

26. "HUNTER BIDEN!"

That's what they say now.

[Justice]

28. KEY: Trump sought to wipe the server AFTER he received subpoena for footage

Additional background on comparisons to Clinton -

IRONY: In 2016 campaign Trump wrongly and repeatedly claimed Clinton wiped her served AFTER she received a subpoena.

FACTS: FBI stated there was NO evidence Clinton wiped server in anticipation of a subpoena or after the subpoena was served

[CaptainTruth]

36. True! An important fact.

Wasn't it the day after he received a subpoena for the video?

[Hassler]

40. Russia, if you're listening, can you find...
