    He is saying they are declassified. Wouldn't be surprised at all if he didn't fully understand that term.

    And why have them at all? He has been told since he got into office they don't belong to him, but to the Presidency and the Archives.

    By law.

    He is a grade A moron.

    Also, but law some things remain classified. Don't know if those things are among what was retrieved

    It's not great that everything plays out in real time through social media these days. I'd rather just see where this goes. If there are no charges associated with this, it is all much ado about nothing. If there are, then Trump deserves his day in court. There are some viable defenses available depending on the details. He isn't an innocent lamb but I would be hasty to assume he was selling nuclear secrets to the Saudis based on innuendo and circumstance. I suppose it is possible he just wanted to hang on to things he is not entitled to hang on to, and they may or may not have been classified. I don't think this is politically motivated or initiated. I don't think Democrat politicians knew this was going down at all.

    Anyone want to bet Trump does not get in any trouble for this?

    You'd have to give me insane odds. I think he's uniquely powerful because of how beholden so many are to him. As he said, he could shoot a person in broad daylight in the middle of the street and it wouldn't matter.

    He already had to return 15 boxes of stuff to the National Archives he was not supposed to take earlier this year, IIRC.

    The fact that he kept all this other stuff, even after being subpoenaed and it was classified TS is beyond the pale. He might be "ignorant" but he is not "stupid" when it comes to breaking the law.

    I just think he knows he is in a club now that is above the law.

    You may be right. He may just be more brazen than any others who are.

    Y’all ever heard that quote about if you want to spread a religion, kill the leader? Can’t remember where it’s from, but this feels like a lose-lose for the country no matter what happens.

    I think you are right, in that his legacy will be long.

    One of the documents apparently had something to do with Stone's pardon.

    And so that would merely be a records violation because that isn't going to be classified. He could have gone through a process to have a certified copy of that, and apparently just did not. If it were just about Stone's pardon, Biden should just pardon him and we all move on. But I don't think it is just about that.

    Trump selling nuke secrets to the Russians or whoever…come on people. That’s a bit too much for even the craziest sheep

    At least he believes he is. The "above the law" club as gotten more brazen each year that I have been alive. It is frustrating for an old man who thought things would get better. I just keep hoping you youngsters can fix the shit we [uck fay]ed up.

    He was gonna frame it and give it to Stone for his birthday.

    I heard that a condition of the pardon was Stone was gonna get tattoo of Trump's face on his chest. To go along with Nixon on his back.

    I honestly could see Stone doing that. He is such a weirdo.
