On Wednesday, Rolling Stone reported that former President Donald Trump told White House officials that he would protect documents that he believed would expose the Russia investigation as a hoax and reveal a "Deep State" conspiracy to destroy his presidency.
"The documents related to the federal investigation into Russian election meddling and alleged collusion with Trumps campaign. At the end of his presidency, Trump and his team pushed to declassify these so-called 'Russiagate' documents, believing they would expose a 'Deep State' plot against him," reported Adam Rawnsley and Asawin Suebsaeng.
"According to a person with direct knowledge of the situation and another source briefed on the matter, Trump told several people working in and outside the White House that he was concerned Joe Bidens incoming administration or the 'Deep State' would supposedly 'shred,' bury, or destroy 'the evidence' that Trump was somehow wronged."
This comes as the FBI has launched a criminal investigation into boxes of documents containing highly classified information that was stowed at the former president's Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida.

Every time Trump opens his mouth, the proper response is to show our work. It gets him every time.

He was selling these documents to the highest bidder. Why else? Why are there documents missing/empty folder jackets?
Traitor needs to be charged and charged right now. He was caught red handed w/ the evidence.
