Prosecutors in the federal government have thrown nearly everything they could at Donald Trump. DOJ officials, under President Biden, have indicted Trump on dozens of charges. But many Americans believe these cases are a sham, meant to interfere with the upcoming election.
One of these cases relates to documents Trump kept at his home in Mar-A-Lago. Americans were shocked when Biden’s FBI raided Trump’s home, despite the fact he had been cooperating with the National Archives.
The trial will take place in Florida, where some believe Trump will get a fair jury. His legal team, however, is moving to ensure this trial might end much sooner. And the judge presiding over the case just sent a good message to the country.
From Just the News:
A judge in Florida will hear arguments Thursday on whether to dismiss the federal government’s case alleging former President Donald Trump illegally took classified and top-secret documents with him upon leaving the White House.Trump’s attorneys say their client was entitled to keep such records when he returned to his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida, arguing the Presidential Records Act gives him the authority to designate the documents as personal and keep them.
Biden’s prosecutor claims Trump illegally kept records from his time as president, despite protections under the Presidential Records Act. Trump’s team claims the case should be thrown out because he is protected.
Now, the judge overseeing the case struck a blow against prosecutors by allowing arguments over Trump’s request.
The prosecutor leading the case, who is accused of being an anti-Trump Democrat, claims the Presidential Records Act does not protect Trump. His claim is that the records he kept were not personal.
But nearly every president (and a few vice presidents) has taken thousands of documents with them when they left office. Obama took over 30 million records, some of which came from the Clinton administration.
Does anyone believe all of those records were “personal” and not presidential?
As is the case with the other trials against Trump, it appears Democrats are twisting the definitions of law. They are interpreting laws in whatever way they can, to ensure Trump is found guilty.
This has not won over Americans, many of whom believe these are biased trials. But there is a chance this case will be thrown out, if the judge agrees that Trump is protected by law.
Key Takeaways:
- The judge presiding over Trump’s Florida case agreed to hear arguments to dismiss it.
- Trump’s team claims he is protected by the Presidential Records Act.
- Many Americans believe this trial, and the others, are politically motivated by Democrats.
