SHOCKER! WaPo Update About Mar-A-Lago Raid Doesn't Fit the Narrative

There is nothing funnier than watching leftist Punchinellos beclown
themselves over the latest “We’ve got Trump NOW!” hijinks.

Remember when the FBI raided Trump’s home supposedly looking for “nuclear
secrets” a few months back? Guess how that turned out?

I’ll let the quislings at the Washinton Post spell it out:

Federal agents and prosecutors have come to believe former president
Donald Trump’s motive for allegedly taking and keeping classified
documents was largely his ego and a desire to hold on to the materials
as trophies or mementos, according to people familiar with the matter.

In other words, Trump was keeping souvenirs, as everyone else does.

Funny how WaPo sat on that story until after the midterms, right?

But wait, there’s more!

That review has not found any apparent business advantage to the types
of classified information in Trump’s possession, these people said. FBI
interviews with witnesses so far, they said, also do not point to any
nefarious effort by Trump to leverage, sell or use the government
secrets. Instead, the former president seemed motivated by a more basic
desire not to give up what he believed was his property, these people
said.

The WaPo also found no evidence that Trump was looking to “leverage, sell or
use the government secrets.”

They threw the idea in near the very end that they still might come up with
something juicy:

The people familiar with the matter cautioned that the investigation
is ongoing, that no final determinations have been made, and that it
is possible additional information could emerge that changes
investigators’ understanding of Trump’s motivations. But they said the
evidence collected over a period of months indicates the primary
explanation for potentially criminal conduct was Trump’s ego and
intransigence.

Some liberals still haven’t gotten the message or are perhaps blatantly
lying.

Is today the day that Trump announces that he did collude with Russia
or that he stole nuclear secrets on behalf of the Saudi royal family?

Trump kept a few tchotchkes from his four years serving as the greatest
president in recent history. The nerve!

Please forward this article to your liberal sister harpy-in-law and her
blue-haired, trans-pansexual, gelding lady-boyfriend who clung like sad,
tragic barnacles to the embarrassing lie that Trump was trying to sell
nuclear missiles to the Kaiser — or whatever it is they needed to believe.

There's no link to the article and the style seems unusual. Could be
the excerpt pacing. Did you lift this "edit" from some place that
*wasn't* WAPO? Then you don't know if it's really a WAPO article or
not?

No matter, I'm not buying it as is.

Um, no, actually, I don't. I recall some government documents were
stolen and the FBI was sent to get them back. The left did, however,
crow loud and long about "classified documents" and "nuclear secrets"
but the final report isn't in. Some of the docs were classified and
so their contents aren't publicly known.

Except that these souvenirs were not his property. Maybe he mistook
those thousands of pages for hotel soap?

Bryan Behar is a sitcom writer in Hollywood. He has a twitter. I
have no idea what his name is doing in this post.

Yes, where ARE the documents that were
in those Top Secret envelopes?

Souvenirs are things people keep.

Trump DIDN'T keep the top secret
documents. Therefore you are lying.

Sandy Berger stole ONE document
and went to jail for it. Trump stole
BOXES FULL OF DOCUMENTS. Why isn't
HE in jail?
