Singapore is for all intents and purposes, an authoritarian government. No one disputes that the rule of law is alive and well. Same in Malaysia, yet the former corrupt PM was sentenced to over 20 years in jail. Lots of other countries with dictatorial or authoritarian governments that respect the rule of law. Lots of democracies that don’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, at least as hard as paper. And while it's true that his attorneys have not been real competent, is it conceivable that of their own volition they would deny that any classified documents remained? Of course, anything is possible. And we still have to hear from the actual witnesses who apparently alarmed the Justice Dept enough to obtain a broad warrent to enter the premises of Mar a Lago.

Why cant they force their way in again and then have excess to retrieve the documents ? They never forced their way in.

Not sure what rock you live under but there wasn't any force exercised to enter and with a warrant there's no need for an invitation to come in. To carry this thought further trump was requested in January, May and June to return the outstanding documents in his possession, and he claimed on each occasion he had only to find he lied and hadn't. He did however turn over a complete hard drive from his computer in error which contained CCTV video of unloading the boxes in question into Mar a Largo along with other incriminating documents showing his actions. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only people in the govt supporting that sentiment is the Trump legion of fools trying to ride his coattails to stay in office Certainly lawyers will all play there role of contests anything and everything in minuscule detail to lose people in the shuffle. Apparently its working on this forum. As for document storage he was illegally in possession of govt documents and had not sciff storage capability even if he were to store documents. He has been afforded every opportunity to due process of law and if anything, in an excess amount. Any other person would have been arrested at the time of the search warrant being exercised and he wasn't. They are exercising proper legal process and restraint. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I can gather, the GOP is totally behind him. The only dissenters are, as you would expect, RINO’s such as Christie and … er … er, ok Christie. As to lawful possession, … let me skip to the next point. You said any other person would have been arrested. But till now, Trump hasn’t even been charged. Is this proper legal process?
