Ok, so he's "tired". Guess he's showing them now isn't he? Seriously? What is he, 12?

my guess is a viable third party candidate that would beat them both, hands down. Who that would be is guesswork at this point.
Kennedy / Gabbard?
Kennedy is a gung-ho climate change advocate, and extremely anti-gun. Will still have too many 2A advocates for that to fly - at least for a few more years, anyway.
I'm glad you brought that up. You reminded me of this from yesterday...
RFK Jr.: ‘Climate Change Is Being Used to Control Us Through Fear’
That still leaves the guns though.
Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an environmental and anti-vaccine activist, once called for corporations and conservative groups that dispute climate change to be handed the "death penalty."
Kennedy, a controversial environmental lawyer whose résumé includes work for the Natural Resources Defense Council and waterway preservation group Waterkeeper Alliance, argued in a 2014 blog post that big oil companies, including Koch Industries and ExxonMobil, "should be given the death penalty."
The post, titled, "Jailing Climate Deniers," was a response to claims made at the time that Kennedy said "all climate deniers should be jailed." He denied ever saying such a thing, writing, "I support the First Amendment which makes room for any citizen to, even knowingly, spew far more vile lies without legal consequence."
"I do, however, believe that corporations which deliberately, purposefully, maliciously and systematically sponsor climate lies should be given the death penalty," Kennedy wrote for EcoWatch.

No. He is a citizen that has been unduly and repeatedly targeted by government agencies with lies, by breaking the law, and manufactured evidence. He is a citizen that clearly has a history of being target with prejudice. That’s the legal system you champion. Any good lawyer should be able to make the case there is no fair trial for Trump. I don’t exactly like Trump. But the left has probably used one too many lies.

He voluntarily turned over the documents he had in his possession as soon as they were found. Same goes for Pence. The only one that tried to hide and destroy evidence is Trump.
Based on the evidence, he's also the only one that shared classified information with unauthorized people.

They were made available. Every single work email on that server was archived as dictated by procedure. The remaining 33,000 emails were personal emails.

He was in possession of classified material despite not holding a security clearance.
He showed those documents to other people not authorized to see those documents.
And then when the courts ordered him to turn over the documents to investigators he hid them and then lied about having them.

we kept hearing from Comey about how the FBI didn't want to influence an election, when it was Hillary.
So, why arent they considered about the election now?
This is the first time we have ever had a defendant running for top national office. I say you aren't going to find legal precedent on this.

So can you provide me with the official list of crimes I can get out of if I tell law enforcement I'm running for office?
Not only that can you provide the list of crimes I can get out of if I start running for office months after I've committed my crime and law enforcement is already in the process of seeking an indictment?

He was the President. He had the ultimate authority to declassify whatever he wanted. He was not limited by any process either - he could simply declare it declassified. He could read an entire Top Secret document live at a press conference, and that act alone declassifies the document and information.
Also, he had a SCIF at Mara-Lago, and all of the documents were properly secured at all times.
He showed those documents to other people not authorized to see those documents.
You know this because you were there? If not, that is hearsay, and inadmissible.

Oh - and Joe Biden was a Senator when he took the classified documents that were found in his possession, so had ZERO ability to declassify, and the documents in his possession were completely and totally unsecured.
But yeah, orange man bad.

Hmm, this seems like an issue you should take up with his attorneys and employees,because according to the indictment, he did not keep these items secure, he did ask his attorney to destroy them rather than return them, they do have texts and photos from his employees, they do have security footage. They have their testimony as well.
Did you need a link to the indictment for reference? It completely debunks your "hearsay" claim.
