Biden staff discovered the documents and turned them over voluntarily and are cooperating with Archives and DOJ. Trump appears to have deliberately stolen the documents, hid them, lied about it, refused to cooperate and the documents were only recovered with a search warrant after over a year of lies and obfuscation.

Had Trump cooperated like Biden did, he wouldn't be in legal trouble. But he fucked around with Archives and DOJ and found out. Fuck him. Bigly.

Because as soon as they discovered the documents, Biden declassified them. Case closed.

The Federalists, of course, get it completely wrong. Sigh.

They are apples and oranges; the self-reporting does matter. There is also a good chance that Bidens office was cleared to a certain level, even though it was a private office. "If" the documents were stored properly the investigation will probably find no major violations.

Just someone's observation that has dealt with classified material at a high level my whole adult life (still do) and has done about a dozen plenary investigations of mismanagement of classified material.

The truth of matters none to those who remind me of a contortionist with their evolution of arguments.

So far there is zero evidence from Biden of willful wrong doings, zero. Promptly returned folders after being discovered. Turned it over to the Justice Department to handle.

Verses the denials hiding refusals covering up.......

What I see that is very telling. How far and to what degrees the suspension of reality is happening. More willing to accept any and all arguments to confirm what they want to believe as the truth. Instead of facing the truth whatever it is.

The story is just evolving on Biden. Who knows what it will be in a week, month from now. It appears at this time he is helping not hindering the investigation. Not so for the last Presidents actions.

That is most people most of the time. It's rare to actually base your opinion on reasoned argument. Most reasoning is just rationalization.
