It’s a little early to speculate about what exactly is going to happen to President Trump after his federal trial begins. Will they actually find him to be guilty, or will they say that he is innocent and did nothing wrong intentionally?
I mean, think about back when Hillary Clinton was caught – yes, CAUGHT – trying to destroy emails from her private server. Then, James Comey tried to pretend that she didn’t intentionally do anything wrong. Give me a break. She knew what she was doing and knew what she was trying to hide. Comey said that she was guilty, but that he didn’t recommend any charges against her.
So, why is this time different? Well, only because it is President Trump and not Hillary or any other Democrat. That’s literally the only reason. Mike Pence has classified documents at his home. Joe Biden had WAY more documents at his home. But they only want to go after President Trump.
But the case against him may not be as airtight as they hoped it would be.
CNN reported that a former White House official, who advised on document declassification during the Trump and Obama administrations, provided examples of instances where Trump followed proper protocol. The former official did not state that the protocol was always adhered to. The individual’s name was not disclosed.
According to the former official, who was interviewed by the Justice Department regarding both President Biden and Donald Trump, the investigations had different tones. The questioning about Biden was not as intense as the questioning about Trump, which was expected.
The former official revealed that during Trump’s presidency, he and his aides prioritized the declassification of specific documents, including a 2018 memo connected to the Russia investigation. The source also stated that John Eisenberg, a former National Security Council lawyer, met with Trump in the Oval Office and subsequently called him for a meeting.
Eisenberg then told the former official to “get your declassifying tools.”
The memo was reviewed and edited in collaboration with White House attorneys and Eisenberg, who declined to comment on the matter as reported by CNN. Trump has stated that he automatically declassified numerous documents, and his legal team has suggested that classified documents were unintentionally taken as the administration departed Washington.
It is unclear if Trump went through the correct declassification process for the records he kept, and his lawyers have not stated whether or not he did so in court. Alan Dershowitz, an attorney and legal scholar, believes that indicting Trump would interfere with the election, as reported by One America News.
“I have absolutely no doubt we’re seeing special justice for Donald Trump, an attempt to get Trump, an attempt to take the vote away from the voters and put it in the hands of Justice Department officials, jurors, lawyers, and judges,” he said.
In seeking the Republican Party’s nomination for president, Trump responded by suggesting that political motivations are the cause of the legal attacks against him, which is in line with his usual way of responding.
“SHOCKING! ONE OF THE TOP PROSECUTORS AT THE DEPARTMENT OF INJUSTICE WAS REPORTEDLY SO OBSESSED WITH ‘GETTING TRUMP’ THAT HE TRIED TO BRIBE & INTIMIDATE A LAWYER REPRESENTING SOMEONE BEING TARGETED & HARASSED TO FALSELY ACCUSE & FABRICATE A STORY ABOUT PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP & A CRIME THAT DOESN’T EXIST. THIS CRIMINAL & SALACIOUS ACT FROM WITHIN THE DOJ HAS BROUGHT SHAME & EMBARRASSMENT TO THIS ONCE GREAT & RESPECTED INSTITUTION. BECAUSE OF THIS, THERE IS NOW EXTREME TURMOIL INSIDE THE DOJ,” Trump posted on his Truth Social platform.
“A TOP OVERZEALOUS & DISHONEST DOJ PROSECUTOR OFFERED A WITNESS’ LAWYER AN IMPORTANT ‘JUDGESHIP’ IN THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IF HIS CLIENT ‘FLIPS’ ON PRESIDENT TRUMP, WHO HAS DONE NOTHING WRONG! THE HIGHLY RESPECTED LAWYER WAS INCENSED & DISGUSTED AT THIS CORRUPT & ILLEGAL OFFER. THE FAKE ‘CASE’ AGAINST ME MUST BE IMMEDIATELY DROPPED, AND THE INSPECTOR GENERAL SHOULD LAUNCH AN INVESTIGATION INTO THIS & THE MANY OTHER ALL TOO OBVIOUS WRONGDOINGS & CRIMES TAKING PLACE AT THE DOJ & FBI!” he continued.
