I have heard this non stop for 6 years.
Now you’re going to learn about the legal definition of espionage.

I may be doing a video on this. I'm more interested in doing Christian videos mind you, but tomorrow I most likely will called "Will the Deep state allow Microaggression Hitler to run in 2024?"
Not sure who the GOP will be running in 2024. Look forward to your telling us in your video.

I have heard it all day today. They can't contain themselves.
It’s historic. Trump has again gone where no President has gone before. You’re seeing his legacy growing before your eyes,

If no conviction comes from this I can tell you who will be running.
Trump will be able to drag this out for years. His goal is to get re-elected so he can pardon himself if necessary. He and his GOP enablers are hoping they can get control of Congress and scuttle as much as possible.

It will be interesting to see if Americans conservatives will support a candidate who is being investigated for espionage. Conservatives need to look at themselves in the mirror and say those words out loud.

Well Democrats need to quit helping him. This has the appearance that no charges were going to come from the January 6th investigation and this was a Hail Mary. If he's reelected he can thank Garland and the FBI.

I dunno about you, but I think espionage is big enough not to be ignored. I’ll go for justice over politics ….. country over political party. But that’s me.

I'll believe espionage when it's proven. Either he declassified the documents or this is one of the stupidest crimes in history.

You can't declassify the documents the FBI was reported to be looking for as president.

So old fashioned.
Partisan/ideological identity trumps country - at least on the right. Why do you think Victor Orban, of all people, kicked off CPAC?

I don't think they will charge Trump with espionage specifically, even though it appears he did violate the Espionage Act, which includes taking top secret documents out of secure locations. As for Trump declassifying them, he cannot do that without documenting it somewhere while he was President. (He can't do it retroactively from the position of an ex-Pres.) Where is the documentation proving that he declassified them before he left office? That is going to be pretty hard to manufacture after the fact. And if the nature of the documents are such that no sane person would declassify them, then he is really sunk. But such speculation is still premature. Let's just wait and see how the investigation unfolds.

If I had been investigated for collusion and impeached twice I would make sure I had all my ducks in a row before taking home classified information. It would be stupid not to.

Its a race between Trumps hubris and his cunning.

I'll admit, this is tough to call.

I'll apologize to Trump when he apologizes for this:



I always come back to this video, since it was one of the earliest, and most blatant, examples of how awful of a person Trump is. Mocking someone for a physical handicap is absolutely uncalled for. And yet time and time again I here his supporters twist themselves in knots for why this is ok or he didn't mean it or it wasn't to make fun of or whathaveyou.

This is the reporter's who's disability Trump mocked, his name is Serge Kovaleski:

Is this a small example in the grand scheme of things? Yes - Leading an attempted coup is far, far worse.
Tell me - Do you think it's OK to mock those with physical disabilities?
My brother has the same disability. I sent that video to my mother. She still voted for Trump.

Of course a trial actually discussing highly classified secrets in full public view would be a “no-no”: guess what “the spin” will do with that development?
