Nobody talks about the 4 years that Biden/Harris had to release any info. That is what fueled the Republican base with conspiracy theories. Now everyone is putting it on Trump Admin to release files.
I just use my brain to think if DOJ had any solid evidence. They would have went after the leads. Another theory would be nearly every major politician and ultra wealthy are on that list.
Of course I don’t believe a list exists at all. It is all just speculation and no actual list. At least nothing that would mean anything legally.
You mean the man who promised his voters he would release the documents, the one who sat there for 4 years bitching about the Dems not releasing, then went on to do the exact same fucking thing?
The man who has spoken about it for years upon years, untill it was time for him to man up and release the documents, now they don't exist, but they do, but they're fake, but they're there, but they don't exist.
I agree they should have released them when they got them, but Trump made it his mission to release those and now he knows how much his names over them, he's afraid.
Exactly what files? The last Admin had 4yrs to disappear those files. Pam Bondi said “The files are on my desk”. Yes, the files that wasn’t disappeared.
Maybe the whole desk disappeared
Nothing ever gets permanently disappeared in the govt. Everything's always going to be locked away somewhere under some level of security classification.
