    Trump would say he did both.

    Now we’re going with the “I was just playing, those weren’t actually classified documents I was talking about on tape” defense?

    He tried that excuse with the Access Hollywood tape. That it was a deep fake.

    The sad part is many of supporters along with those who say they hate him and didn’t vote for him will believe it.

    I fully expect the AI defense as soon as the , "it was just bravado" line of BS doesn't pass the sniff test.......it will be an AI voice and planted evidence by the evil Jack Smith

    The audio tape is just one exhibit among many that will paint a robust picture of keeping and mishandling national security docs. In a court room, the bravado argument won't help because he still has to explain being in actual possession of classified material, moving it around to hide it from the government etc. The argument only works in public opinion, and then only for sympathetic people who just want a fig leaf to justify the position they wanted to hold anyway.

    I am sure we only know a portion of Jack has up his sleeve, if you read the transcript you would have to be brain dead to not think he was "showing it off" for the people at the table, not to mention I have a feeling one or all will be testifying..........by the way I have not heard if they actually got it back or does he still have the Iran plans. I know this would never fly, but due to his penchant for lying about this I wish the DOJ would swoop into Bedmisnter and any other house he has and search it from top to bottom if there are still missing documents. At this point it's in trumps best interest to hide anything he has left....I mean, he has already shown he has no respect for the law, does anyone really think he is just going to give them back

    Considering his kids, their loyalty to daddy, and their shady dealings, my guess would be a big yes!
    I could see JR and Eric moving, hiding, or burying stuff out of loyalty to daddy, but Ivanka and Jared are the ones I trust the least. I could see those two actually selling secrets to foreign leaders as much as Don the Con. Ivanka acts like she is some beautiful princess, because daddy groomed her into believing that. She wants to live like one.

    "Brain dead," aka, "a juror"?

    You're right, but as easily swayed as people can be, never underestimate the power of stupidity.

    If she made millions, then imagine what Trump's family has made off the info he had access to. Ivanka and Jared knew plenty of secrets with their positions and meetings with Daddy.

    DOJ asked for December to have time to prepare for trial. Sure, July would be nice, but you don't want a prosecution this important to be a rush job.

    As for the delay in the arraignment, I can see that we're going to have a lot of annoying people on twitter freaking out over every little bureaucratic development in this case. A week's delay in deciding the trial date shouldn't be a factor pushing that trial date back. DOJ said they wanted December to have enough time to prepare. Trump will probably ask for a date after Super Tuesday saying he needs even more time to prepare. Nauta's delay probably doesn't impact how Canon decides that argument.

    I was just thinking that, hey man, if you can't find a lawyer, we will provide one for you. If your boss is the ex prez, you should have no issues finding a lawyer, the issue is no lawyer wants to have to deal with the baggage that is trump.
