If DOJ introduced expenses towards Donald Trump relating to the Prime-Secret SCIF information that he took to Florida, it could be simple to show that Trump knew what he had and knew he needed to maintain it, it doesn’t matter what anybody else stated. In any case, he’s by no means claimed, “Some staffer put these there, I by no means knew…” No, he’s claimed they have been his below government privilege, and right this moment, in a rage-filled rant on Fact Social, Trump says that the paperwork belong to him and that he can higher shield the paperwork at Mar-a-Lago than the individuals who focus on gathering and defending the nation’s paperwork on the Nationwide Archive.
That is particularly laughable within the context of Prime-Secret SCIF information, some involving one other nation’s nationwide protection and nuclear functionality. Trump has been labeled a strolling counter-intelligence risk for a while, and the federal government is not only defending the nation’s safety. They’re defending these secrets and techniques from Trump himself.
After all, none of this registers as significant to Trump. From the post:
“NARA misplaced an entire arduous drive stuffed with HIGHLY SENSTITIVE data from the Clinton White Home. Greater than 100,000 Social Safety numbers and addresses, Secret Service and White Home working procedures (EXTREMELY SENSITIVE!).
There is no such thing as a safety at NARA. I need my paperwork again!”
One can safely assume that the Nationwide Archives have “misplaced” paperwork now and again, however they haven’t misplaced these. That is very true with Prime Secret paperwork, and – that is laughable, the truth that there have been previous failures doesn’t imply that the paperwork are safer with Trump. Even when there was a universe during which Trump may higher shield the paperwork, they aren’t “Trump’s paperwork” and thus he has no proper to claim he can shield them in any respect.
In any potential felony case, an enormous component is nearly already confirmed. Trump knew what he had and supposed to maintain the information, figuring out the federal government had demanded them again. Even in that context, Trump remains to be asserting possession or management of the information. It’s simply one other Trump ode to King Louie XIV, L’état, c’est moi. “The state, it’s me.”
It’s too dangerous that it’d take a doc with a factsheet setting out “The USA v. Donald J. Trump” to make it clear to Trump that he’s not “the state.” He’s a citizen below the regulation.
