It probably won’t surprise you to know that rather than understanding the very serious nature of the trouble he’s in for taking hundreds of classified documents, he’s whining that he wants them back.
Matter of fact, Donald is now insisting that the FBI return at least two dozen boxes of materials they seized from his Mar-a-Lago resort. Those boxes, according to The Wall Street Journal, contained at least 11 sets of classified information.
“He has said, ‘People put this stuff in their library. How can they put it in their library if it has to go back to the Archives? I don’t understand why I can’t have these things,’ ” the source said.
Of course, what Trump actually fails to understand is that what he’s done was in direct violation of the law, and considering his expressed admiration for some of the most disgusting dictators in the world (Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong-un) and the fact that his business is in deep financial trouble, it’s only natural that the Justice Department might suspect the ex-president is selling U.S. secrets to the highest bidder, including our adversaries.
Even before he left office, there was a general consensus that Trump should not continued to receive intelligence briefings, which is customary when a president is no longer in office:
When David Priess was a CIA officer, he traveled to Houston, he recalls, to brief former President George H.W. Bush on classified developments in the Middle East.
It was part of a long tradition of former presidents being consulted about, and granted access to, some of the nation’s secrets.
Priess and other former intelligence officials say Joe Biden would be wise not to let that tradition continue in the case of Donald Trump.
They argue soon-to-be-former President Trump already poses a danger because of the secrets he currently possesses, and they say it would be foolish to trust him with more sensitive information. With Trump’s real estate empire under financial pressure and his brand suffering, they worry he will see American secrets as a profit center.
A profit center. Selling out the country for money. Does anyone actually think he isn’t capable of such treachery?
