PREDICTION: "where are the missing boxes?" will become Trump's "where is the missing 19 minutes"

The assumption (which I don't think is wise) is that with the search warrant served, all the top secret documents have been returned to the US government. I suspect they will find many missing documents that they did not recover from Trump. This will be the story in a month or two, where are all the missing documents. This will prove as damning as the missing 19 minutes of tape that drove Nixon from the White House

They should do a search warrant on his golf course in Jersey, including the fresh graveyard.

Damning indeed, but the implications of concealing info regarding a two-bit burglary vs. what appears to be an UNPRECEDENTED in-house security breach do not warrant comparison.

in the minds of the public. Having classified documents is bad, not knowing what he did with them will be infinitely worse in the court of public opinion, at least that's how I see it

Russia, if you are listening, find us those missing top secret documents. Putin knows where they are.

apparently scattered some stuff, so as someone mentioned ... some might be in his "golf course in Jersey, including the fresh graveyard."

He certainly has demonstrated that he has no scruples about "sharing" information he's been privy to.

and as I have been saying I believe we will find that one or more of our allies intelligence services have been sharing their knowledge of the "marketing" of the materials.
