Summarizing what I heard.While a certain number of these documents might not be easy to make a case for, there are human asset documents he was in possession of that included nuclear related information. That stuff falls under a different law, and mere possession is convictable. The trouble the Government has is that some of the other documents, they'd need to show intent to steal. The nuclear docs, he doesn't have that cover.1. Trump got caught with classified material, some folders n a desk were empty.
2. Trump is udsig his usual legal and propaganda tactics.
3. Pundits say the government may not be able to male a legal case.
4. Trump might beat the rap.
The pundits say the govt may have a hard time making a felony case. It could end up being something trivial like mishandling documents. Was there an intent to circumvent laws? Hard to prove. Or was it just ineptness that classified documcts ended up in boxes.
The loosely defined presidential privilege factors in.
You and I have probably both handled classed documents. When I was at Lockheed leaving a file cabinet unlocked or a document out in the open was big deal.
When I went to Navy C school on a system the classes were in a locked cage. The manuals were checked page by page before we were allowed to leave.
What Trump did was serious and may even be treason if he handed over info to people. He has a history of beating legal issues.
I have to wonder if Tump passed info on our nuclear weapons and command polciess to Putin. Trump is about as amoral as it gets.
