They did have to present some evidence to the Judge for him to issue the warrant in the first place though. But in America you are innocent until proven guilty. It is premature to say that Trump is going to Prison when he hasn't even been charged and tried for this yet, just like it is premature to lay blame on the Justice Department, the Judge and FBI when we really don't have all of the information yet.

But, it's probably best if we all err on the side of caution, and wait and see how this all plays out.
No one should be saying that he's guilty at this point but as usual Trump is a master of misinformation.

His lawyer does have a very serious problem for claiming everything has been returned.

He can do whatever he wants, whenever he wants, no questions! If he wants to have secret documents in his home, so what? He should have everything!!11!"
The same with Obama in 2008-2016 with the different crisises like Solyndra, Fast & Furious, Bengazi and the IRS targeting scandal. Sadly, they do not want to hold Trump accountable and call it a witch-hunt while doing for Obama and Hillary was not. The fact is Obama and Hillary created smoke screens. Trump creates dumpster fires.

The warrant, the break in, the taking of privileged communications the court ruling to unseal most of the affidavits, the redaction all follow the previous attempts to "get" President Trump. And I think will fail as with the others. They will indict, charge and arrest him. At that point, it's anyone's guess what happens,

Ultimately just as with the other attacks, this one also will fail. Remember they brough a SWAT team and a helicopter to arrest an elderly man, Roger Stone..

The canary in the cage in the coal mine has died. And it took the FBI along with it.

So yes it's possible, the most egregious examples of such abuse have come from Republican presidents.

But this Mar A Lago raid is nothing like that.

If you or I had even one piece of classified information in our homes, we should expect to be raided and brought before the courts. This is not new, it has always been that way. If you do not know this you have no grasp of the matter.

The authorities would want to know how and why we had it, and they wouldn't be particularly reluctant to ask. You or I could expect to be handled rather roughly.

Do you think when Ethyl and Julius were caught they were handled any differently? They paid the ultimate price for their treachery.

It has always been this way with regard to classified information.

Also, it is a fact that Trump was asked for this material months ago. He failed to comply. Then the material was subpoenaed, he refused to comply. This is extraordinary forbearance being exhibited by the US government in Trump's case.

Citizen Trump is still, even in this instance, treated better than any ordinary citizen in the same situation.

So don't sling your BS about this here, everyone knows better.
Excellent response! If this was anyone else, they would be under trial right now and would be found guilty and then pay a penalty for their wrongdoings.

A number of things become obvious even to Trump supporters if they just pay attention to Trump and his own people.

#1 Trump took classified documents. He has now tacitly admitted this by claiming he had issued a "standing order" that all documents he took home were to be declassified.

#2 Trump lies. His OWN ADMINISTRATION people , like 20 of them, have gone on record saying his claim of a standing order to declassify anything he took home is complete BS. Again, these are his own people from his own admin, not the FBI, not the Dems. His own people are now saying he is lying about all of this.

#3 No such declassification took place. If a document is declassified from top secret, it involves a long process of notifying certain people this has been done. It never happened. There is no record of the documents he had possession of when he was no longer POTUS ever being declassified.


Trump lied folks. Even his own admin now admits this. Trump is scrambling to cover his rear and making crap up.

Unlike now., and apparently many on the left cannot seem to grasp that fact.

When are y'all going to start doing that?

Since y'all have been quickly falling for anonymous sources for the past 6+ years, with those sources often being proven to be wrong or a twisted version of the truth, I don't think I'll be holding my breath while waiting on you folks to suddenly adopt a wait-and-see attitude anytime soon.

Put on the accountability pants and people like me with facts wont embarrass you so easily.
Anything posted here by anyone is pure speculation, you included. Don't try to use that as a bargaining chip.

If you have facts exonerating Big Orange, bring them.

Facts—as in boxes of restricted government material found at Trump’s residence/MarALago

Thought it was interesting that one of the files Trump stole and that was recovered was Roger Stone’s file—
