#NBCNews #Trump #Classified
Nauta, for a Navy Officer you’re a fycking dusgrace. You should be in Leavenworth for a whole life sentence. I’m only a ex-serviceman from Scotland but his behaviour is unacceptable. 😭😭😭🤮🤮🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴
If the counts only involve 31 documents, could counts be brought later on Trump’s illegal retention of other documents?
Trump’s claim to be allowed to keep these records IS that he IS still president … that Biden never won the election. All false claims. Lock this lunatic up!
Trump got what exactly he wanted so his name will be written in history, and he can keep getting his donations from his base. He’ll fight this by saying that the far left is after you,, not him. His usual playbook full of lies. I will remember Jan. 6, 2021 when he showed his true colors towards America. He only wants the power. He wants to pardon himself. This is just one of many legal problems he has. We don’t want a criminal leading this country.
Trust it, If the DOJ charges you. You are 100% guilty period. The DOJ is friendly toward him he could be sitting in jail without bail just on the espionage charge. Donald Trump is a total hypocrite, liar, cheater, gangster, and a spoil rich insane fool. All I can say ,”I pity the fools that believed in this MF piece of crap”!!!!
DT 45 & where we are today :
If special counsel Mueller’s report didn’t end up with x1 page summary ???
Read Mueller report before
writing the summary???
Would we be here today…..???😢
Yep and trump is offering up more evidence every time he opens his big mouth so 😆
Trump belongs in a rubber room. Think about the scope of actions trump has been envolved in during his administration; a one way course of lawless, seditious behaviour against the USA.
Defence = none!
The people behind the scenes, doing Joe Bidens job, are the people Trumps running against. Their jobs are to take money from their people and filter up to the wealthiest. For a price, of course. Trump is the only person with enough power, money and influence to interfere with these for-profit politicians and globalists agendas.
Nothing more serious than the corruption of the Democrat Party and the Main Steam Media. Hillary has a much more serious case and so does Biden.
Republican Psychosis is a new cult disease. tRump, Jordan, Green, Hawley and Cruz all need to be in a mental hospital. Did I miss anyone oh yes Boebert.
George Santos looks perfectly normal next to Rump!😊
We all know Rump is a Putin lover😅😅 He prefers Putin’s regime to the American one😊
If the Repubs had had the guts to impeach Rump, they wouldn”r be scattering the way they are today😊
Guess the next step is to find out where the remaining docs are!!😮
How many Americans are in tears and tearing their hair out tonight?😅
He did take some “oaths”!!😊
This is extremely serious, it’s espionage !
Very soon, we will see Trump coming into a courtroom in a wheelchair, just like Bill Cosby and Paul Manafort did, in an effort to look old and weak. Trump won’t need any makeup for that. He’ll get a year of home confinement….and by then he will be out of politics. He won’t go to jail.
Just a prediction.
No blond wigs either
Bald man dump chum 🤡
Shackles,Jumpsuit, Hammer,Rocks……
BS!, this is called Fake News!, 🐀…….!
At the very least donald j trump should be in prison for the rest of his life.
The sad thing is FOX will not inform the Maggot Republicans trump is a Traitor.
Fox so quiet
🤡
All the cell mates is waiting for dump chum 🤡
to welcome him – to join the party
🎉 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
🎈🎈 🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈
If he decimated classified military secrets with foreign powers he will be hanged as a traitor. He still has items of the people’s property. The Kim Jung Un love letters are something I want to see but they’re still missing.
What I like best about it is that it comes with a Mandatorys sentence
TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! I have known for 5 years , Trump is a TRAITOR to the United States and our allies.
And if Trump Trials don’t put him in prison in USA, maybe those of us from Australia, Canada, New Zealand & UK should apply to extradite him to try him on behalf of the 5 allies….
Great reporting.
There’s something wrong with the republicans party in this era. The fact that they’re more behind the orange man than before the charges. I feel like I am living in outta space! 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😊😢
Proud boys.. Stand by… Stay in your cell…. We love you you’re special…🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👕🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Yup looks that way doesnt it..very problematic 😂😂😂😂😂
Theres one thing we learned from his impeachments is that he needs to be recorded !! And they did .. becauses he says one thing then says another in the opposite ..!! Busted!!
Excuses excuses. There are none..
People are worried about inflation, paying their mortgage, food, gas etc..The mainstream media is really trying to push him out of the race but are actually doing the opposite. Viewership will be through the roof on Tuesday. If this was Biden, thet would bury the story like all the others. Where’s the balanced reporting here? Can’t wait to see the mug shot.
The judge will NEVER convict him.
This reminds me of an episode of Star Trek the next generation (The Defector) you see Trump every one of those documents was fake phoney it was designed to test to test to test your loyalty and you failed the loyalty Test.
Trump keeps getting by so much and keeps throwing people under the bus, he needs locked up with life without parole
Vote blue 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Of course because they want him out…PERIOD….
Why were his lawyers not allowed during the search at his home….
With 35% of Republicans supporting mentally ill Trump for president is scary! What is wrong with these people?
Definitely wrong use of the term “Maginot line”
Just remember if they can do this to a former president think what they can do to your family if they get full control
they should build a prison just for politicians, it would fill up fast.
Trump won’t need a passport putin will have open arms to give him shack and other places to couch surf.
Next stop, Georgia for strong arming them to find 11780 votes. That alone should qualify him for prison for the worst kind of voter fraud.
Search all of the Trump property’s, including Ivana’s grave for more documents.
No matter to true Trumpers…never seen anything like these people, they will support Donald even if he goes to jail.
Lock him up! Lock him up! Lock him up!
Stop GAS LIGHTING US!! CALL THEM OUT FOR THE FASCISTS THEY REALLY ARE!!!
If Obama has done something like this the republicans would have called for him to be killed.
Trump did do this and they say he did nothing wrong.
They are the ones with trump derangement syndrome.
PS. I hope Alec Baldwin plays trump in the made for TV movie.
I have a feeling that trump was behind the gunshot that ruined Alec’s carrier.
This is just a misunderstanding! Everyone knows Donald Trump is very self centered and we live in free market system. He thought he was free to market top secret documents!
This deranged and delusional POS should be in JAIL long long time ago. Indict season is here. Karma is a beach.😂
There is no defense for this BS. Trump stole the documents, lied about having them, hid them from the FBI. Emily has lied about having them. He continuously is spreading conspiracies and lies over his rallies and every time he gets in front of the camera 📸. This corrupt criminal must be indicted, prosecuted, and charged.
I just want the mfer convicted then I don’t want to hear his name or see his face again until you tell us he bought the farm.
COLLINS: When it comes to your documents, did you ever show those classified documents to anyone?
TRUMP: Not really. I would have the right to. By the way, they were declassified after–
COLLINS: What do you mean not really?
TRUMP: Not – not that I can think of.
Trump 2024!!! Biden ,Prison ,where he belongs !
Fox probably not even talking about this.
Just wait until Georgia gets on the big cheater’s mind.
Now This is what I call a conspiracy theory!
Will Melania file for divorce if he gets prison? I think she will
This is ridiculous, how many chances will this guy get. Since 1979, he has consistently broken the law and he keeps getting away with it. Why the double standard? Why is Trump & RICH people held to a lower standard than the rest of us. It’s BS
LOCK HIM UP!!!!!!
00000⁰⁰⁰⁰p
I’m not going for sure 😕 😪 🙃 🙂 😔 🤧 😕
He was Not a Leader, ever
If anyone wants to predict in advance what Trump’s defense will do, read Cicero’s Verrine Orations – the only case in which Cicero ever appeared for the prosecution. Verro was a politician who was being charged with corruption and conduct unbecoming a Roman. If found guilty, Roman law mandated that he be taken to the top of the Tarpeian rock – a nearby cliff – and thrown over the edge. [Anyone seeking to revive this penalty may be assured of my equanimity]. Cicero predicted in advance all of the stalling tactics that Verro’s lawyers would use, and managed to block all of them. Admittedly, all of this happened centuries ago, but it seems that political corruption always tends to compost people down to the same set of knee-jerk reactions.
The big question no one asks Trump is WHY WHY DIDNT YOU JUST GIVE BACK THE DOCUMENTS.
I guarantee Trump had ill intent to either sell information or use the documents as some form of leverage
All of Trumps assets properties etc should be liquidated and put back to important charities
Really ……….they have been trying for 6 years to snuff him out. This will end up being a joke yet again
this is just a cover for what Biden has done ….its called projection or role reversal. Everything comes out in the wash it only takes time
Truth and facts are sending the republicans into a tail spin. Watch them bring up hunters laptop, Hillary’s emails, and the stolen election. Yet again!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
We are a two party system, but it’s incorrect, and irresponsible , to say that half the country doesn’t believe the indictment.
The problem with trump , he knows more than his lawyers :: its really stressful for his lawyers to defend him :::
What if trump knows about classified documents ?? He was a president that time and needs to have knowledge of classified things the US govt . Is doing as president … if he divulge that classified documents to the public and other countries , well that’s a different thing ..
You guys are lying but let it be known to you that whoever Gods hand is upon you cannot destroy .That reminds us of Russia , Russia
LOCK HIM UP-FOR LIFE
He’s facing his own lies.
I’ve never seen someone..that evokes so much negativity..nothing but confusion..there’s nothing positive about his presence…
Can touch this
And yet the Trump cultists will scream ‘witch hunt!!’ and Trump becomes more popular. The GOP and conservative voter has such hate for liberalism and Democrats that they think black is white and lies are truth. Nothing Trump has done matters to them. Everything is someone else’s fault. Trump is in the position now because of hateful Democrats, not because he broke the law. Remember the days when any whiff of scandal was enough to vote someone out? Now all they want to do is vote them in. So much for the party of ‘law and order’.
WHY NOW???WHY NOT THREE YEARS AGO WHEN THE “CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS” WERE SUPPOSEDLY TAKEN AND WHERE WAS SECURITY WHEN ALL THESE SUPPOSED TOP SECRET DOCUMENTS WERE SUPPOSEDLY TAKEN?????? THIS IS ALL BULLSHI*!!!!!! WHO CARES HOW DETAILED THIS IS????? WHO CARED..ITS STILL LIES!!! DETAILED LIES!!!!!!!
Will the Central Park 5 receive complementary tickets to the Trump trials?
[]///////////> U N o B ody C ares about your reprobate minds….
Did Trump destroy documents with a hammer? Bleachbit?
Do you watch anything other than FOX? OAN?
@ChadYvette Heiman do you follow anything other than Rachel Madcow?
@Kevin No, I don’t watch her. I’m watching other things when she is on. But I do canvas all the available outlets when I can; I try to get the gist of what they put out. I seek the middle ground for sanity [i.e., AP, Reuters, Real Clear, etc.]. That said, it’s obvious you don’t venture outside your right wing echo chambers.
TRUMP may need some cyco pills too get him back too sane mind. Or he was on cyco pills when he took such top secret ducuments–
NO PRESIDENT SHOULD EVEN BE ABLE TOO EXTRACT ANY TOP SECREt SECURITY DOCUMENTS- THIS LOOKS LIKE A BANANA REPUBLIC- TOO ALL our globle friends and allis
Man!!! this will be a GREAT MOVIE in 10 years!!!
45 was brought down by 37.
It’s BS you tools
Good argument bro.
America Vs The Donald it is a.Clash of
Will’s and all the Talking these Guys in
Suit are Doing and they are not Saying
Anything
Anyone else Who refused to give up
Even one single Top secret Document
Would be in Jail By Now so stop with all the semantics is He Going to JAIL or
The White House 🏛️ We don’t know
Does not Cut it 😞
Then Biden needs to be INDICTED ALSO
Donald Trump had been charged with Obstruction of Justice at least 3x. I hope he finally goes to jail for it. This is what his been doing for years and had gotten away with it. Lock him up!
I bet you say “Lincoln” instead of “former President Lincoln”. Sure you do. We all do. Please stop referring to this indicted citizen as “former president”. He is now a citizen, without any title. By awarding him a special title, you are justifying special treatment. It is time to remind him and everyone that he is simply a citizen. Mr. Trump is just a citizen.
