Trump appointed his own head of the FBI in 2017. He had his own AG. HRC was not charged because Trump told his AG to back off.
Is this true? The POTUS is not supposed to tell the DOJ to do anything. We know Trump didn't observe those lines, though, ever.

On the next show, on now, we have host Eric Shawn asking a former Federal prosecutor about the same issues. This prosecutor is trying to sing the "POTUS is all-powerful with regard to documents" song, but the HOST is pushing back! He's got the prosecutor agreeing that the FBI did not plant anything, Trump's rhetoric is harmful, and classification doesn't matter much anyway.
It is when you are POTUS. Anyone else is delegated the task of declassifying documents and therefore has to follow a procedure but POTUS does not as he is the ultimate authority when it comes to declassification.
The argument has been and is the process of being debunked by both sides of the aisle. it simply does not work that way.

No Trump did not. I mean officially he did, but behind the scenes no.
It was clear Wray (a Bush dynasty criminal) was handpicked and given to Trump. Trump was under incredible pressure after he got rid of Comey as they opened up a probe by Rosenstein and he was told firing Rosenstein would lead to his impeachment.
When Wray was asked if the Russian collusion probe into Trump was a “witch hunt” (it was and is) he responded no! Does that sound like a guy Trump picked?
Given there is an obvious inside informant....there is most likely more to come on that. It could be that Trump just stupidly dug in his heels and refused to cooperate.
Bragging rights. Trump has a long history of collecting memorabilia to show off to people he wants to impress.
