Absolutely. I'm surprised you need to be told that stealing highly sensitive documents, with information that could prove to be detrimental to the country's national security if it falls into the wrong hands, is worse than attempting to cover up a break in at your opponent's headquarters.
You really couldn't figure that out by yourself?
How do you know what the information is, and that it could be detrimental? Is the FBI leaking to you
We can all agree if Trump
a) illegally held onto documents
b) that damaged national security
c) were recklessly stored or were kept to sell/espionage
Then Trump needs to do some time.
But the evidence for this is all but not existing.
What we have is that the FBI alleges they took a bunch of documents with classified markers. We don't know what's inside, if they truly damage national security, and if Trump had them illegally.
But graduates of C-D law school will say otherwise! Case is ironclad, Trump was selling our nuclear secrets to the Russians, why isn't he being executed yet

Well, sure, you can't see the evidence with your head stuck in the ground. Nothing to see there but worms. However, if you pull your head out and look around there are actual pictures with evidence, showing--SHOCK AND SURPRISE!!!!--sensitive government documents!! At Mar-a-Lago!! And Trump hasn't denied it. We know that because he whined that they made a mess when they retrieved them.
So I guess Trump was lying when he said that, too, right?
I know, I know, it's scary to pull your head out of the ground. Not to worry, though, the rest of us aren't so self-impaired.

Until someone shows me the documents, or the very least discloses their contacts (via redactions) and how it compromises national security, all I saw were a bunch of cover pages with classified markers on them.

In other words, the documents are classified until Trump proves otherwise. Since he never told anyone or even changed their markings, good luck with that.
The notion that Trump declassified HUMINT and SIGINT data without telling a soul and without even bothering to change the classified markings, then stored them in an insecure area is a joke. The material still threatens human life and international secrets that our nation keeps. No American patriot would support such treason.
And even if they were proved to be unclassified, there are still PLENTY of criminal charges that still apply to this whole Mar a Lardo train wreck.
I'd previously posted a link for the memo that Trump had sent to the AG, CIA director and the DNI regarding the declassification of those documents.
But since the feds didn't seem to notice or care that such highly sensitive classified material was missing for 18 months, then they may have problems finding that memo. IF that memo was sent then it's likely Trump has a copy of it, unless that copy was in with the other things that were taken. It's likely those offices that received the memo still have their copies, unless Garland seized them too. This will probably come out if he's charged and there's a court hearing.

In summary, there are no anonymous sources being used here. All the information I'm providing comes straight from the DOJ.
"No anonymous sources being used here"
You were laughing when you typed that, eh?
This thread is full of unproven anonymous sourced drivel. It's all the left has had over the past 6+ years.

I don't see Trump pleading guilty at all. So you have a trial. The trial of the century. And riots, etc.
Yes, I can see blm antifa rioting, to intimidate the judge and jury like they'd done in the past.

They ARE doing a damage assessment based on the classified documents they recovered, so we do know they recovered classified documents. Even that inexperienced Judge Cannon acknowledged that the damage assessment could proceed, so she is also acknowledging that classified documents were retrieved from MarALago.
And yes, Trump had them illegally. Did you miss the part of not being allowed to take classified documents home?

Yes, the DOJ will get right on that. Are you paying attention, DOJ? AfricanSunset NEEDS TO SEE THE DOCUMENTS!

The guarantee that DJT got from the Raid:
He guaranteed a continued Federal SS protection AND Federal FISA court surveillance.
He probably guaranteed that same FISA surveillance on DJ jr, & his spouse, Eric & his spouse, Melania, Avana, Jared, and maybe Tiffany. This is gonna be expensive to the taxpayer.
