Trump never believed in the “Balance of Power” between the three branches of government. He never accepted that anyone was allowed to tell him “No”. This is just an outgrowth of that ego.
Just consider what would happen if the FBI found that you or I had this sort of material in our homes? Then a number of Politicians have the gall to say “No one is above the law”? Yeah, right.
18 U.S. Code § 1924 is really clear. And Trump admitted(If a person admits guilt or states other facts that imply guilt on their own without police questioning or prompting, the statements may be admitted even if [Miranda]rights were not provided.) that he had these classified docs in his desk. Penalty is a fine or up to five years, or both. Let’s get on with it.
So, there are a bunch of documents that various intelligence agencies deem so secret that they are never to be seen, much less taken, outside of a special secure room. and they are so marked. Trump apparently took them out of that room, and claims (maybe) to have “declassified” them (which makes them government documents subject to Freedom of Information requests, right??). Now, in order to find out whether they’re really as classified as they say they are on their faces, they will be given to some vendor to scan and digitize them, so they can be given to the Special Master and the lawyers (and their clerks and their janitors) on both sides. There seems to be something counter-intuitive with this plan…

Just because his judge was a tail-wagging pushover doesn’t mean the SM would be.

Trump’s defense, “It was me, so it’s ok.”

Trump needs to be in an FBI holding cell and be questioned about who he gave the classified to.

Legal strategy: delay, maneuver, obfuscate, and outside of court continue to lie.

It seems his pet “special master” is misbehaving. Now his lawyers are objecting to Reinhart’s finding’s and his schedule.

Now, now. I’m sure he declassified those empty folders that were planted by the FBI.

Trump is running out of lawyers an ideas at the same time, the real problem is the people that believe in him!

Trump Disciples all believe that Their Messiah is innocent.
Because no one is allowed to look at any evidence — at least not until The Messiah is back in office.
.
That has been his defense in every one of his crimes.
