I’m not sure what incentive there would be for DoJ to accept a plea. Like I said, this is the easiest case they could ask for. His lawyers even admitted he committed the crime in the pleadings.

Never Trump, hardest hit. Interesting how we see this story from WaPo AFTER the midterm election. Granted, Trump was not on the ballot HOWEVER, plenty of candidates he endorsed were. Sort of like the convenient timing around the Hunter Biden laptop story. Before the election, it was RUSSIAN DISINFORMATION then after the election, OOPS, it was a real story and there is likely something there but moving on. Seeing this from WaPo a week after the midterms. Typical. From WaPo: That review has not found any apparent business advantage to the types of classified information in Trump’s possession, these people said. FBI interviews with witnesses so far, they said, also do not point to any nefarious effort by Trump to leverage, sell or use the government secrets. Instead, the former president seemed motivated by a more basic desire not to give up what he believed was his property, these people said. No kidding. The people familiar with the matter cautioned that the investigation is ongoing, that no final determinations have been made, and that it is possible additional information could emerge that changes investigators’ understanding of Trump’s motivations. But they said the evidence collected over a period of months indicates the primary explanation for potentially criminal conduct was Trump’s ego and intransigence. Right. https://twitchy.com/samj-3930/2022/11/15/wapo-quietly-admits-fbi-found-nothin-in-raid-of-trumps-home-conveniently-after-the-election/ Well, that makes it completely ok. I mean if he said he just wanted to have them because he would miss them... And if he says he totally wasn't going to sell them. I don't know why, but I believe him! I mean, he's never lied before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just 1 side using the government to lock up their opponents. Didn't see Donald lock Hillary up did you? Sure thing! There are two key differences between Hillary and Trump when it comes to possession of government documents. 1. At the time, Hillary was a government employee with the appropriate security clearance to view the information. Trump was a private citizen with no security clearance. 2. The confidential information on Hillary’s server appeared to reach there unintentionally. The classification markings were generally way down on the email chains and it would be hard to overcome a defense of her not knowing they were there. Trump was told by NARA that he had no right to the documents and his lawyers signed documents saying he had returned all of the documents when he really hadn’t. Intent is very easy to infer there. The DoJ found that while Hillary lacked intent, she was recklessly careless. However, there have only been a handful of cases in history in which the DoJ secured a guilty verdict in a case like this on gross negligence. All of those cases are essentially things like throwing documents in a dumpster instead of shredding them or accidentally taking documents and leaving them in your buddy’s office desk drawer while you go out partying. As a government employee with appropriate clearance, Hillary had the right to access the information but how she did it was improper. As a private citizen with no government clearance (presidents don’t actually get security clearance), Trump had no possessory right to the documents. It would be near impossible for the DoJ to win a guilty verdict against Hillary given the facts. It should be a slam dunk to get one against Trump.

They can both be disgusting (I didn’t vote for either) and still have different legal exposure. I personally think a private citizen stealing government documents is pretty bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
