But it sounds like you are the all knowing when it comes to what Trump did prior to the raid almost like you were there so being as intelligent & all knowing as you are due to my unlikely ignorants will have to take you at your superior word & knowledge . By the sounds of it though none of your opinion comes with any biased or hatred attached thank goodness for that ! So brilliant & no biased or hatred you must be a supreme being . When the president leaves office, they lose possessory rights to government documents. The documents are sent to NARA for safe-keeping. They may, however, retain access rights and can view the documents at a NARA facility. They may also negotiate with NARA to have documents moved to presidential museums and such. A good example is that when Obama left office, his non-classified documents were transferred from DC to a NARA facility here in Chicago. He doesn’t have them in his possession, but they are nearby. He likely will negotiate to have some of them displayed in his presidential museum when it is finished. His classified documents remain in a NARA facility in DC. And even if presidents can retain possessory rights to documents, at no point has Trump or his lawyers argued in the courts that they obtained NARA permission for him to retain possession of the documents. This is about as slam-dunk as it gets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it you are in law of some sort or did attend some kind of law courses & i on the other hand have went to the school of hard knox & life lessons & only have common sense on my side . Just to finish i feel that most lawyers especially those in DC are as crooked as they come & I don't trust any one in Washington if their mouths are moving it's usually a lie . Just look how they fabricated the Steel dossier & no one was held accountable for that . Or most times they are stretching the truth in some way shape or form & if their speeches are written by lawyers that specifically are taught how to twist words in law to fit i still don't trust any of them but maybe that's just me . But thank you for the explanation !! Edited November 9, 2022 by T master Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
