    The Trump Card...

    It's kinda a theme with you, isn't it? Trump can do no wrong and any adverse consequence that accrues to Trump is someone else's evil doing, unfair, unjust, or otherwise structured such that Trump's flawlessness remains intact.

    The Trump Card...

    As I said above, I find that interesting too. Below is the timeline published by BBC showing relevant developments. This thing went on for months and it continues to develop. It seems to me it would have been better for the government to have swooped in with a search warrant to seize the...

    The Trump Card...

    I saw that Washington Post report but it is unsourced and unconfirmed by other news organizations. I'm giving it zero credence. I hate reporting like this. It's not reporting at all. For all we know, it's made-up BS. While it gives the talking heads on TV something with which to fill their air...

    The Trump Card...

    It seems so. Numerous reports refer to the basement at Mar-a-Lago. Like I said above, that is the first building I am aware of in Florida that has a basement. Every building I have seen is constructed on a concrete slab or pilings.

    The Trump Card...

    I find that interesting too. It seems DOJ took several actions over a number of months to recover the documents in question. Learning more of the story now, I was surprised it took them this long to decisively act.

    The Trump Card...

    Trump Will Not Oppose Unsealing of Warrant In a statement issued late this evening, Trump said, "Not only will I not oppose the release of documents related to the unAmerican, unwarranted, and unnecessary raid … I am going a step further by ENCOURAGING the immediate release of those documents."...

    If so, Trump can use that as a point in his favor in court

    It would appear there is more to the story than you or I know. We'll have to stay tuned for more details to emerge.

    The Trump Card...

    "FBI protocol requires agents to show a copy of the search warrant — as well as provide an itemized list of what was taken after it is finished — but it has discretion on whether to allow the attorney to be present while the search is conducted. "Bobby Chacon, another retired FBI agent and...

    The Trump Card...

    It's interesting to note that DOJ did not announce the Mar-a-Lago search before, during or after the search. We learned about it when Trump announced the development. Then Trump talked a great deal more about it, releasing many details that no one could verify but that were accepted as true by...

    The Trump Card...

    That's exactly why I'm cautious about unnamed sources quoted by the press. You never know who they are talking to and you have no way to verify what is being said. And sometimes, what is attributed to these sources turns out to be flat-out wrong. It also sometimes happens what what is attributed...

    The Trump Card...

    It appears the opposite is true. Trump's attorneys and representatives (and Trump himself) were not cooperating fully. A subpoena was issued and the partial response was unsatisfactory. So DOJ took the next step and got a search warrant.

    Actually, yes, SOP exactly.

    The Trump Card...

    It probably was very good reason. That's why the judge saw fit to allow the search. This is not a familiar topic to me. But from what I gathered watching the news today, the affidavit will come into the public record if charges are filed.

    DOJ Files Motion to Unseal Mar-a-Lago Search Warrant & Property Receipt "Attorney General Merrick Garland said Thursday the Justice Department had filed a motion to unseal the search warrant and property receipt from a search FBI agents conducted Monday at former President Donald Trump's...

    The Trump Card...

    If he has it, one reason for him to not release it is it may list the specific crimes the grand jury and DOJ believes were committed. That's not something he'd want made public. I don't know if he has it or not. I can only say I believe he does. But if he has it, he's unlikely to release it...

    The Trump Card...

    Additional detail here: "What the former president will not have a copy of — but which will have been presented to and signed by the judge who approved the search — is the affidavit the FBI used to obtain the warrant, which is sealed while a case is ongoing."

    The Trump Card...

    MAGA people do what their leaders tell them to do. If DeSantis says he wants Haley because it improves their chances of winning the general election, MAGA will fall in line.

    The Trump Card...

    Meaningless Basement Point I've lived in Florida for a number of years and I have yet to see even one building that has a basement. We're on the coast and the water table is such that basements are not built here. Maybe inland there are buildings with basements. Maybe in the big cities there...

    The Trump Card...

    Yes, DeSantis will run if Trump also runs. DeSantis knows his time is now. He will not pass up that chance and he knows he can easily defeat Trump in a contest for the Republican nomination.
