    That was literally Trump team's excuse in court at first (before Trump contradicted it). And, yes, when you have people packing up tons of documents for you, these things happen. It is hardly the first time.

    I understand the hyper-partisan propaganda campaign against the President, and will take any legal charges against him seriously when the required evidence is presented by the Republican-run Congress or anyone else.

    In the meantime, imaginary charges against him do not serve as a diversion from real ones against 2020's loser.

    I have no way of knowing, but speculation does not serve as a needed diversion from the 37 count indictment of 2020's loser.

    Should the National Archives have known they had the classified documents?

    The DOJ that couldn't contrive any charges to "Lock her up! Lock her up!" throughout the four year of the Trump regime?

    They need actual evidence, apparently.

    You're saying the DOJ is incompetent?

    Some of the documents (I've read in the news) was from his days as a Senator. That brings up the question of: Why (and how) did he remove them from the room where reading classified documents is permitted by members of Congress? "Immediately" is a laughable claim. I may have been born at night, but it wasn't last night to fool me into that bs.

    If you believe charges should be brought against the National Archives, you could write to a sympathetic Congressman or two, I suppose.

    Suit yourself. I doubt you use the same standard when it concerns Trump. Does he get the same benefit of a doubt or have you concluded he's guilty as charged?

    Eminently competent as far as bringing charges only when there is damning evidence, apparently.

    The sexual abuser is innocent until proven guilty.

    I don't even screech, "Lock him up! Lock him up!"

    I hope that he is able to drag out the process to the chagrin of his rivals for the 2024 nomination.

    That's an apparent contradiction. ;)

    If anyone "makes up" evidence, it is exposed by defense attorneys and the case dismissed.

    (See the dozens of frivolous challenges to the 2020 presidential election that were laughed out of court, even by Trump-apponted judges.)

    A Trump defense strategy that will be utterly futile regarding the thirty-seven counts against him:

    While I agree neither should be anywhere near any sensitive information, the guy who left classified in his garage didn't obstruct and conspire to obstruct.

    depends what was actually found. if the docs in his garage revealed vulnerabilities to our military then there is a huge threat to national security.

    You think, eh? Damn, life is easy when you can just make up justifications to fit your biases whole cloth.

    What part of speculating are you having problems with?

    Legal precedence is a big deal in a trial. Believe it, or not.
