It took 3 years to indict him for espionage, and two more years to convict him, and he wasn’t a former president.

Tomorrow is the earliest DOJ can submit the stolen docs as evidence following the 11th circuit ruling last week, assuming Trump doesn’t appeal to SCOTUS. He almost certainly will, which means it will be another month or so before the docs can be presented to a grand jury as evidence justifying an indictment.

it is only illegal when someone else does it. When he does it, it is okay, because I guess he is special or entitled.

Here is a thought, though. Since slob was found guilty in tax cases in NY, will the IRS go after him?

I'm totally with ya but I think the calculation here is that they won't get a second chance.
So they're building a case so strong it will be unstoppable.
If we didn't have a SCOTUS full of partisan hacks an corrupt husbands, things might be different.

Can't believe you used that term (witchhunt) regarding the DOJ's beyond solid case, imo.

I have never seen such an open and shut case without live video of the crime. The contents of the documents, while meaningful, are irrelevant to proving the crime. Simply having the documents is the crime.

Did the poster actually say it is a witch hunt. Yep, hello and goodbye to that troll.

Justice matters.

Something I've always wondered about.
And is a 'wild goose chase' still called that, if someone catches a wild goose?

22 months and counting.
Does the DoJ want to ask trump again if there are anymore
classified doc. in his possession But his lawyers said they gave up all of them.
If you can't trust a lawyer who can you trust. Right DoJ.
