2023Queue the second warrant. Hey, happens all the time. I look forward to its day in court. You know, to clear up the misunderstanding.
The application for court approval for that search said agents were pursuing evidence of violations of statutes including 18 U.S.C. 1519, which makes it a crime to alter, destroy, mutilate or conceal a document or tangible object “with the intent to impede, obstruct, or influence the investigation or proper administration of any matter within the jurisdiction of any department or agency.”
A key element in most obstruction cases is intent, because to bring such a charge, prosecutors have to be able to show that whatever actions were taken were performed to try to hinder or block an investigation. In the Trump case, prosecutors and federal agents are trying to gather any evidence pointing to the motivation for Trump’s actions.
The Washington Post reported in October that Trump’s valet, Walt Nauta, had told investigators that he moved boxes at Mar-a-Lago at the former president’s instruction after the subpoena was issued. Smith’s team has video surveillance footage corroborating that account, The Post reported, and considers the evidence significant.
In addition, the people familiar with the investigation said, authorities have another category of evidence that they consider particularly helpful as they reconstruct events from last spring: emails and texts of Molly Michael, an assistant to the former president who followed him from the White House to Florida before she eventually left that job last year. Michael’s written communications have provided investigators with a detailed understanding of the day-to-day activity at Mar-a-Lago at critical moments, these people said.

“It’s All About Trump’s Election Criminality
The details of the various investigations are complicated, but the thread connecting them is easy to understand
You don’t have to closely track the minutiae of the legal developments in each of the investigations to understand what it’s all about. It’s okay if they blur together in your mind. In fact, that might be helpful in seeing the big picture, the unprecedented nature of the threat Trump poses.
See, at the broadest level, the Manhattan district attorney’s indictment of Trump regards the same subject as the ongoing investigation by the Fulton County district attorney in Georgia and one of the investigations now being led by the special counsel in the Department of Justice. In fact, the case even strikes the same theme as the Mueller investigation and both of Trump’s impeachments.
What would that be? Election criminality. That’s the throughline of most of Trump’s corruption since 2016. He covered up hush money to his mistresses, made overtures to Russia “if you’re listening,” held up funding for Ukraine, put the squeeze on Georgia election officials to “find the votes,” and incited the January 6th insurrection all in pursuit of the same goal: to win presidential elections—and then, when he lost in 2020, to overturn the results…”

I think he's scared. And should be.People have literally been saying “he’s toast” or something similar for years. Out Of Our Minds is correct about that.And he’s a narcissist with a god complex. No chance he thinks he’s going down for any of it.
He's not president anymore. He's in quite a bit of trouble. lolHe may face consequences , he may not. But this is FAR from a slam dunk. People need to stop thinking this is “finally it”. This could easily blow up in democrats’ face in an epic way.Although you are right anything could backfire but what should the DA do, ignore a clear crime? Legally it appears there is an irrefutable crime here.
If trumps argument prevails, that he did this for personal reasons, then he is screwed for lying to conspire to commit tax fraud, by calling the bribe “legal fees” to deduct on his business taxes. If not for personal reasons, then it’s an illegal contribution to his campaign because the campaign benefitted by stormy keeping quiet. Either way, it’s a crime, despite the confusion expressed by some posters here.This gets complicated for trump if the Fulton DA and special prosecutor smith have the same backbone as Bragg.0 -
2024Of course the DA should prosecute if they think they can get a conviction.By The Time They Figure Out What Went Wrong, We'll Be Sitting On A Beach, Earning Twenty Percent.0

"Election criminality"- that makes good sense. The courts won't see it that way, of course, but hopefully all of his various crimes will lead to his downfall once and for all. Sadly, his minions will continue to blather on about what a great hero is to them. That anyone could find that to be so is mighty perplexing.

2023One recent poll shows "Among Republicans, 73% think the one-term, twice-impeached, criminally charged former president has had a positive impact on the Republican party." How can so many people people that?
