Yep, again, I agree he did something extra-special bad. I'm not denying that. But you haven't addressed the double standard at all, which is what I'm talking about.

Either classified documents are super important or they aren't. There has to be *one* standard. They can't only be important when trump takes them, but no big deal when biden takes them (illegally) and stores them in his literal GARAGE. Like, give me a break.

Again this isn't about justice, it's purely about stopping him from running again. Gee, I wonder what the plea deal will be? Maybe: Don't run for president and we'll drop the charges? The thing I find so gross here is that they're pretending this is about being a good boyscout and holding the guilty accountable, out of some dutiful commitment to the law. It's obviously not.
