Of course the GOP can be expected to make a big fuss about it. But if they whine about how terrible it is, aren't they effectively admitting that it was also bad for TFG to do it? And even worse, because of instead of cooperating he refused to return the docs, hid some of them and claimed they were his? They'll have to tread very carefully when they go into whatabout mode on this.
