Hes hitting him over the head with it. It today, mitt romney became the Party Establishments unofficial spokesman for the dump trump movement. Then, the 2008 nominee, john mccain, double teamed, saying that he shares romneys concerns and called Trumps National security ideas uninformed and dangerous.

from very reckless handling of these documents might have harmed our nationae l security. this was not a mistake that m these documents landed ats what mar-a-lago. h this is what he intended.intend and it also, by thede way, showd that they really want to get these documents back . and every second that they re i at this beach house ins a the possession of donald trumpr na a risk to our national security. my favorite was hillary. we ll getionalt to her in a mom. but we can now expect the same rhetoric surrounding joe biden. is that going to happen with his private home face? an early morning raid, or will he get the hillary clinton treatment, you know, a free passt thinto or mishandling topt classified information? and by the way, to recap, ininft case you forgot, hillary clinton stored a mountaihillaryf privilege, top secret classified information document s on her unsecureds. private servers. one hundred and ten pieces of classified information among her, thirty three thousand or
it is possession. he s the most incompetent at ti. worst president of all time. u and there s going to be a lot more evidence of that thanks to us winning the house. oh, it just put merrick garlandn joe in a box. also your pals id inn the media that you cover so well, how do they justify they defended hillary. now they re going to defend joe biden, but only donald trump gets criticized for the exact same thing. we re already seeing w on social media. well, bidee n maary have done t but it s not as bad as trump. and what really did it s. yeah, exactly.e look, this is a preview of what we can expect over the next twenty three months leading up to the 2020 four election. i mean, forget bias. e passed that exit a long time ago. there will be outright hostility towards thise republican congress and whoever the republicanago. nominee endsl being. and the rich irony here is that more than the few in this business will conduct this this coverage, all while somehow positioning themselves o

now, they say it doesn tt involve classified documents. so pay no attention to theth dopes at the new york times.on o they don t know what they are talking about, but thisthis certainly blows a hole in anynd ability of merrick garland and the department of justice to go after trump for allegedly mishandling classified documents. you can t say, oh, well, it slin okay for t bill clinton to have done that. it s okay for joe biden to havea done it s okay for hillary o clinton to have mishandled hundreds of classified documents. but whoa, whedonan donaldld h does it, even though he may have declassified the documentse and under the presidential records act, is allowed to maintair ct in control overs, the documents. no, his name s donald trump. i so we re going to go after him with a vengeance and threaten him with crimes. threaten himnow, the question it fbi and the department o of justice treat both cases? the same? i mean, the hillary case timthe come and gone. sadly, i would have liked
