In addition, some of the documents found in Mar-a-:Lago are highly sensitive documents that only belong in a SCIF which stands for Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility. They should never have been kept at Mar-a-Lago. In any case, all of the thousands of documents, classified or not (except for the former president's personal property) belong to the government.

Moreover, she's not incredibly old, so she has a long career ahead. Trumpism is unlikely to be how things work out in the long run. She's destroying her credibility now, potentially opening herself up to impeachment, and for what? Surely she isn't dreaming, like some congresscritter, of a dream lobbying job after retirement.

      I think the Courts can still actually be shocked that a former President can go so off the rails.

      That’s because even the legal profession has standards.
      Playing stupid games that support the argument that the system is corrupt and biased needs to be smacked down, hard.
      If they can’t maintain the veneer of justice and honor and other glittering generalities, who would follow their rulings?
      Things like Cannon getting smacked should happen much, much more often. Corruption and favoritism are lethal to the credibility of the system, and credibility is the only reason it means anything at all.
      That lawyers like Powell haven’t been disbarred for their obvious fitness and character issues also raises serious questions.

That is one of those (Pull the string on the talking doll) phrases, he will invariably come up with. Even if it is completely out of context for the question or topic at hand.

    The real question is: why is "Judge" Cannon still allowed to practise law under her current position? She not only knowingly and willingly involved herself in a case in which she has DIRECT conflict of interest (her job being granted to her by the defense), but then also openly sided with him (her employer) in a manner in which basically all other independent judges agree was not actually legal (and furthermore not even well-veiled in its corrupt purpose).
    If she continues to hold title in her current position, it will be a testament to law ruling over justice in this country, rather than justice ruling the law -a testament to a system that is fundamentally broken, where judges can be openly bought and never challenged in their corrupt actions. And if our courts of law cannot be trusted......well, then we are in total chaos and anarchy, then we are back in the dark again, uncivilized and without greater purpose, no higher ideals to be protected and lived by in pursuit of grand dreams.

This could play of role of prejudice maybe Trump team could bring up though wouldn't make sense since they picked him. But more importantly the investigation did not really end well for Dearie mostly making mistakes in part of investigation. As we know eventually didn't lead anywhere. So they are probably hoping he makes mistakes and Trump gets away.

    This entire thing is almost Reverse Kafkaesque. It's like Cannon is making Trump's arguments for him. His legal team basically says: We have an argument but we're not telling you what it is. It's the best argument. Many people are saying it's the best legal argument ever made. Don't worry about what that argument is, It's 100% correct and you should just believe it. Therefore, we win.

      The argument wasn't a psychic power, but a claim that an unexpressed decision to declassify would be completely valid if its existence could be inferred from subsequent actions, an argument applicable to executive actions of other presidents. When Obama went on national TV to reveal that they just killed Osama bin Laden, Obama was implicitly acting on an unwritten declassification of that previously classified fact. Similarly if president Trump (while still in office) ordered the movement of certain classified documents to a less secure location, he may arguably have acted on an implicit unwritten declassification of those documents. It's a logical argument, that is only slightly stretching the truth.

He has little knowledge of the actual workings of government, never had any interest in learning, and has, indeed, remained remarkably stupid over how the government actually works. He still doesn't realize how proscribed ALL government functions are by rules and regulations, which is why he keeps making totally inappropriate and incriminating statements and actions, which, while they wouldn't affect the average citizen, will get him, as a former government official, in very hot water.
