Dangerous look, not good at all.

Your meme was wrong and I told you why.  The post has a point.  Not point in the "goes on the scoreboard" sense.  Point in the "it needs to be said" sense.
The problem is that this "mishandling classified documents" issue is a really hard one for anyone to really score points on.

What prosecution has come of Trump's mishandling of documents? Remember being told he had nuclear secrets, only for the FBI to come out later and say that wasn't the case. Remember being told that he violated laws, only for the FBI to come out later and say it wasn't a big deal? According to WaPo:

Quote: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 .... 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.

In other words... Trump kept souvenirs he thought he was entitled to as President. Same as every other President. You just can't admit that because you were lied to for a month and desperately wanted to believe it. Cognitive bias is real, yo. You're able to be duped because you WANT to be duped. 

You and Marty were easily worked up into a frenzy about Trump and are just as easily placated as it pertains to Biden. The classified documents are a red herring as far as I'm concerned. The real issue is your unwillingness to snap out of this coma that has been induced by your favorite news organization. You are told how to think and you're happy to oblige.
